> Do you really think it's better to give a kid a good life and then off them at age 10 because something else thinks they taste good? Seems like a pretty simple ethical question: no. A more appropriate question would be, would you rather live a life in the wild and die from starvation, from a simple infection, or from being mauled to death? Or, would you rather have full accommodation for your entire life, but you get killed at age 35? Or, would you rather not exist at all? I don't think that question is as simple as you make it sound. > We could keep some women around and give them great lives as sex slaves. "Great lives as sex slaves" sounds a bit oxymoronic, doesn't it? > I could even give my harem a much better life than any animal can experience. If you can afford it, you can have a harem right now without enslaving anybody, because some women would rather be a prostitute than whatever the alternative is.
