      Suppose a technology existed that let one control the homo/heterosexuality of a person by acting on a fetus in utero. Would you use this technology?

      if you chose an option other than (A) on the second poll, mind explaining your reasoning? I can imagine several explanations and I'm curious how they gel with contemporary accounts of transgender Like, seems easily compatible with the Blanchard model but not with dysphoria?

      Let's do a third round. Same thing, but for Down syndrome. Hypothetical treatment detects presence or absence of trisomy-21 and either removes it or generates it in autosomes. No chance of side effects; no risks.

          oof this one's tough, since society mostly rahs good and boos bad, we might end up selecting for susceptibility to memes. i think im gonna hope bad-reducer works mostly thru modulating aggression and impulse control and call it a day

          Selecting solely for genes that may be beneficial in the current society may not be a good strategy on the long term, when there might be other selective pressures in the future.

          We already have a bunch of annoying genes that stick around only because they were beneficial in ancestral societies. Even if everyone uses that tech and regrets it a few generations later, they would still be able to go against their base instincts just like we do now.
