>Stereotypes are never useful, ironic >societies adapt to their needs. we have so far. but there are biological impositions that may not be able to be overcome. >Our current societies are not going to die because they have decided to cut down on marriages or lots of children. They may not die, but unless we get robots caring for the elders soon, our continue expectation of population and economic growth is surely _unsustainable_ >We re smart enough to think for ourselves without consulting the books written by the Elders Are we smart enough to prevent population/economic/ecologic collapse? Unless we are talking test tube babies and society conditioning....anything less than Brave New World simply won't work. When half of women aged 30 are single and without a child, we didn't even need to damage our DNA a la Children of Men - just our society outpacing the human condition may be enough to ussure in an exponential degradation in quality of life. men dont have babies. they aren't equal to women. unless that changes, and people accept it quickly, then men and women will continue to have crucial roles in society and the upbringing of the next generation - our continuity.
