Our interpretations differ. I assumed Brigitte’s mention of keeping sex for procreative reasons was in opposition to the comparatively recent idea of sex for entirely recreative reasons, with procreation inhibited.

“Easier is debateable [sic]. But it’d certinly [sic] be a lot less fun!”

Huh??? Brigitte said it would “be easier if we pretty much kept sex (versus complicated science) for procreative reasons”. As a scientist I can corroborate that she is correct. It is far easier to use sex to bring about procreation than trying to produce babies in a test tube.

And if you think the scientific way is more fun, then might I suggest you are doing it wrong.

Besides, humans want to have sex. It’s in their nature. And they will do it, one way or another. Might as well let them do it without risk of intented procreation.
