Right, get ready for this. It is steeped in history and a load of emotional challenges and moral questions. It might get really intense, so I'll try and joke about with it a little, but the essence of it is is a real challenge.
Right, we're looking at what has historically been proven as 'expected behaviour'. There are at least 2 instances of this happening on a large scale, in recent history, on a world wide stage.
The first time was early in WW1 and the second time was early WW2.
I'm talking about the Baby-Boom generations.
Are you ready for this?
When the lights go out, people will get up to naughty-time. No sniggering those in the back. It's normal, and if you can't accept it like adults, then please just go online and look at pictures of kittens being cute.
History has proven that when the lights go out and entertainment is not readily available, people go back to more primitive ways for entertainment...plus it helps you keep warm
If you do it right, it's awesome cardio too!
The issue isn't about over population. That's a stupid thought. Since we are looking at a collapse, we know that there will be a die-off, so the odds of a major population boom is pretty weak.
The problem we'll be facing is that of increased pregnancy and people begging those around to look after their babies. Many refugee nations have been known to give away their children to orphanages or other families that are better able to look after their babies for them.
If you're there in your compound and you hear a baby crying, would you go and help? Could you turn a heavily pregnant woman away? Could you say no to her and her baby? Could you cope with the sound of the crying?
Would it be wiser to take her in and the baby, just to shut them up and stop the screaming from bringing people in the area over to you?
There is so much to think about with the scenario of increased pregnancy.
People will be having more unprotected sex. There will be less contraception available. Prescription contraception will not be as readily available.
There's a whole load of factors that say that WTSHTF, pregnancies will go up in number, and suddenly the people you're dealing with become more volatile, but also more of a moral issue.
I'd love to get some views on this.
