Wait until the pro-lifers discover the antibiotics they pop when they’re sick kill organisms inside of them… Life is sacred when it’s not their bodies.
Def restrict them, feeding them by the fuckton to cattle because you’re too lazy to figure out a way to keep that many of them in sanitary conditions is how you get civilization-ending superbugs.
As to the “playing god” thing, I was actually quite amazed at how touchy the IVF doctors were about that issue. They had some interesting rules about what they would and wouldn’t tell the parents about the offspring options. I’d have to go ask my friends about it again for all of them, but I remember one of the rules was the doctors wouldn’t tell them the color of the eyes before choosing.
I believe that ethical doctors do this. I also believe there are some unethical doctors out there who don’t give a shit and allow their patients to select for all kinds of traits. Ultimately, there is no way to know unless someone talks about it.
