isn't this true? why do people advocate IVF? if a couple can't reproduce they are supposed to let their unfit genes kill themselves. modern medicine fucking with natural selection which results in dysgenic effects.

There are other reasons for infertility anon, reasons that are highly unlikely to be linked to genetics.

For example, a pelvic infection can lead to tubal scarring, predisposing to infertility.


Additionally, there's no evidence that the traditional insemination technique produces smarter offspring. After all, look at you.

I hope this helps.
