Titania McGrath: No babies, no more Nazis

A recent article in British Vogue posed the question: “Is having a baby in 2021 pure environmen­tal vandalism?” The answer seems obvious to me, given that babies are responsibl­e for 90 per cent of all the world’s carbon emissions. (That’s probably the case anyway; I haven’t really looked into it.)

Forced sterilisat­ion is often frowned upon, but the truth is that most of our current problems have arisen from human beings and their tendency to reproduce. Take toxic masculinit­y. If we were simply to sterilise all males at birth, toxic masculinit­y would be eliminated within five or six generation­s

Those who argue for the so-called “continuati­on of the human race” are missing two key points. First, until we close the gender pregnancy gap, women will be bearing most of the burden. Second, given the fact that fascism is unknown in the animal kingdom, is the human race worth preserving at all? I’ve never heard of a badger committing a xenophobic microaggre­ssion.

Apparently the majority of pregnancie­s are a result of intercours­e between a man and a woman, which is outrageous given that all heterosexu­al sex is a form of rape. Recently I ran a workshop for 6-year-olds to teach them about how Peppa Pig is actually a white supremacis­t, and I took great pleasure in reminding them that all of their parents are rapists.

Besides, traditiona­l pregnancy is so outdated. I know a transblack gender fluid drag queen who got

pregnant with non-binary twins in their female testes by lesbian sperm donated by a sapiosexua­l demiqueer horse fetishist. That strikes me as a far more dignified wat to come into world

And consider this: all of the worst people in history were once babies. Science has given us many things — air conditioni­ng, tanning salons, gravity, etc — so why is it that they haven’t found a way to engineer children that have the correct opinions? Why are straight white males still being born at all? If we could just come up with a system of selective breeding that weeds out the problemati­c and the unwoke, there would be no more Nazis.
