Examples of epilogenics

1) Selecting an embryo for lower disease risk, higher intelligence, or some other trait good for both the individual and society
2) Gene editing for the purposes listed above
3) Choosing an attractive spouse

Examples of things that are not epilogenics

4) State-sponsored sterilization of people deemed “unfit”
5) Rules against marriage of family members such a siblings and cousins
6) Things people think of as eugenics even though they are often bad for genes (i.e. genocide)

• 1 with the qualification of “good for… society” is just 4) with extra steps. 2) is just 1).
• For 3), unless everyone you are dating never wears makeup/grooms themselves in any way, you probably aren’t looking at much genetic influence. You are probably instead just selecting for socioeconomic bracket, which is totally not what any of this is about, right?
• For 5), is the implication is that the OP thinks anti-incest laws are eugenics and therefore bad and therefore should be abolished???
• 6 Aella definitely googled “things that are bad for genes” with voice to text, got back “regular washing” and took that to heart

Other:

• I didn’t know the “eu” in “eugenics” came from greek.
• Now I’m thinking about that whole “eudaimonia” thing from a while back. Every time it pops up in my head I think “Eudaimon now dog!” I wonder how YTMND is doing these days.
