The Eugenics Education Society was renamed twice: the Galton Institute in 1989 and The Adelphi Genetics Forum in 2021. It is still with us.

@eadweard. Eugenics, as defined, is the improvement of the human species through selective breeding. Sperm banks advertise and promote "high value" heritable characteristics. There was even a lawsuit filed by a lesbian couple claiming they were lied to about the sperm used. Eugenics. Planned Parenthood is also an organized form of modern ideas and values of Eugenics.

Angela Collins and Margaret Elizabeth Hanson filed lawsuit against sperm bank employees and the donor. Collins and Hanson alleged that sperm bank talked up the donor, saying he was smart, healthy and mature. They say in the lawsuit they later found out the donor is schizophrenic, dropped out of college and had been arrested for burglary.

Most sperm banks are highly LGBTQ+ friendly, as lesbian women comprise nearly half of their business. This is modern "Eugenics". Do a show on that!

The Genius Sperm Bank was created in the late 1970s by Robert Klark Graham, an American millionaire optometrist. His aim was to breed highly intelligent people by getting clever men to donate sperm.

George Bernard Shaw was a member in the 1950s, after WW2. DNA is far from being "pseudo" science, and the basics of this science has led to the recent creation of mRNA vaccines in defense from mutating viruses.

@Biographics The civil rights activist WEB Dubois and naturist John Muir were supporters of "Eugenics", so were nobel prize winning scientists like Robert A. Millikan who made Cal-Tech what it is today. Wokeists removed his name from my former Jr. High and replaced it with the name of a man who didn't finish grade school, was addicted to drugs, and committed bigamy. You are guilty of the Woke art of Presentism.

Eugenics – meaning ‘good breeding’ – was coined in 1883 by Sir Francis Galton to describe ‘the science which deals with all influences which improve the inborn qualities of a race’.

@eadweard. I quoted an article from a Fertility magazine,that line was not mine. I should have put it in quotes. Google "most sperm banks are highly LGBTQ+ friendly, as lesbian women comprise nearly half of their business" - FertilityIQ You made an assumption about me based on this quote from a Fertility magazine. I had nothing to do with it. "Offering desirable characteristics" does not just "sound like" Eugenics, it is the science of Eugenics.
