Your body isn't designed to do anything. We are like viruses in the sense of whatever works, works. While folks who don't reproduce are summarily eliminated from the gene pool.
Not because they don't have value, but because they don't 'work'.
The fact that you find having children fulfilling is about you, not about anybody else.
- runsWphotons 6y agoViruses are designed to infect, multiply and spread. Also humans are not viruses. I know that isn't what you meant since you specified "in the sense that...". But this kind of analogy seems to me to lead to bad thinking.
- kiba 6y agoViruses aren't designed to do anything either.
- runsWphotons 6y agoSometimes they are. (But that's not what I mean originally. You seem to object to the word design?)
- majkinetor 6y ago> Your body isn't designed to do anything. Yes it is. Without procreation species can't exist, so it must be designed to procreate. The process takes quite a lot of energy which is precious to all forms of life and there are all sorts of mechanisms in place to make you wanna do that. Design. > The fact that you find having children fulfilling is about you, not about anybody else. Everything is first about you. Its illusion that some things look like they aren't on frontend.
