Eugenics has two strands (negative and positive). Many people are offended by the negative (stopping the "undesirable" from having children), but I haven't met too many people who are offended by the "desirable" choosing to have more children.

This is all tangential to my post.

It's not tangential to me, and yes, I'm totally offended by both strands. I used to date the author of the "Darwin Awards" website and books, and I've spent a lot of time interacting with the general public about these concepts.

Why are you offended by people choosing to have children? Seems rather strange to me, but I guess the world is a big place.

[greglindahl]

I am not. I’m offended by eugenics, no matter how you phrase it. Having children is not eugenics.

You said you were offended by both positive and negative eugenics? Mind explaining how?
