Genetic degradation of the human race?
- bencollier49 6y agoI don't know why this was voted down. We've been performing in vitro fertilisation en masse since the 1980s. All of a sudden, men with non-motile sperm are fathering children. So as a single cause it's not that massive, but at 1% of all births, the effects will soon stack up.
