It’s kinda funny to imagine that civilization collapses because we invented hormonal male birth control and didn’t anticipate that this would lead to… war.
Male hormones have a habit of (re-)shaping the world, for better or for worse.
- oneoff786 5y agoA male hormonal birth control would likely inhibit testosterone. Would probably reduce crime and war.
- DiggyJohnson 5y agoYea, I certainly agree. But what if this leads to a cohort of aggressive males that do not accept this new innovation. They'll breed more and proliferate, while the BC males do the opposite. A war of alphas and betas is finally upon us. The aggressors are coming now, just over their horizon. I can't quite make it out yet, but their standard is coming into view. Dark red border surrounding a pale yellow background, and something ... green? in the foreground. "But I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin." "In fact," said Mustapha Mond, "you're claiming the right to be unhappy." "All right then," said the Savage defiantly, "I'm claiming the right to be unhappy."
