As far as "damaging the gene pool" you could make the same argument about medication. Medication helps the weak stay alive long enough to procreate thus passing on weakness to future generations.

My opinion is that I have no opinion. It's yet another thing where I think people should just mind their own business. However, I do think there is a strong potential for a control situation to occur. That I am 100% against.

I think everyone should be allowed to do what they want as long as they aren't hurting or impeding anyone else.

I'm not talking about damaging the gene pool through mutation, I'm saying reduced genetic diversity weakens the human race and leaves us more vulnerable to diesease etcetera.

Also as humans is pure physical fitness all that matters any more? I'd say a person with high intelligence is possibly more genetically valuable than a person who is physically very strong...?
