Is it not inherently part of that animal pattern to only procreate until the resources become a limitation? Maybe the Wachowskis were wrong, and humanity isn’t

Is it not inherently part of that animal pattern to only procreate until the resources become a limitation? Maybe the Wachowskis were wrong, and humanity isn’t a disease that keeps spreading and growing.
- lalos 6y agoI would assume contraceptives methods make it easier to break the pattern, since you are still technically physically doing the act of reproducing but the cycle or incentive is broken since there is no offspring.

- stevenicr 6y agoIf you fear your kids would starve or otherwise have a terrible life, and you voluntarily do not inseminate - I think it could be argued that you are volunteering - however I think it's a reaction to the environment and a calculated view of what's to come.
- tmn 6y agoThat's a self limiting decision. It's easy to rationalize yes
