[QUOTE="Aero, post: 266958, member: 2076"] a very well articulated point. another interesting thing about this concept is that cattle, especially linebred cattle, are much more genetically refined than humans. for the vast majority of the population, we just roam the countryside looking for a mate that will stay with us and make us smile (sometimes just for the night). i wouldnt call these criteria "stringent". :lol: A rancher is going to look at past performance and will only keep females that are out of his best producing females. A linebreeder stacks pedigrees [i]looking for[/i] defects and undesirable hidden traits. And only the best males get to breed the top females that have been retained. And this is compunded over many generations. if humans were treated like cattle, 99% of us would be culled and sent to hamburger heaven before ever breeding again. :P [/QUOTE]
