If you could choose between having hot sex without any chance of conception, or instantly producing a child (no sex involved), which scenario would you personally prefer?
Most people would enjoy the hot sex more.
Some people have this weird misunderstanding of evolution, where they conflate the behavior of genes, of human desires, and sometimes of morality. This is rather nicely debunked in The Selfish Gene, by Richard Dawkins.
- raitx 3y agoInteresting idea and question. This reminds of the current trend that the population developed countries are in decline. So is it moral to have sex without producing child? In the past that would be immoral, but now it's moral.
- Qwertious 3y ago>So is it moral to have sex without producing child? In the past that would be immoral Where and when are you talking of? In medieval Europe it was considered immoral by the catholic church (and note: basically everyone ignored them in practice, and not everyone agreed with the church), because they explicitly religiously believed that deriving pleasure from sex was only caused by the Original Sin, and that nobody should have sex, ever. They carved out an exception for preventing humanity from going extinct, but otherwise: seeking sexual pleasure is sodomy. Elsewhere: it varies, but sex is fun and most people wouldn't oppose it.
