Mmmm… genes. No, not the clothes item, genes. Genes as in what makes us look, act, and think like we do. We get them from our parents. However, in the future that may change. Here’s the thing: Future technology may allow our parents to alter us genetically. This may not visible. Many genetic illnesses would be eliminated, as would risks of other hereditary- related factors. I, myself, would agree with such modifications.
People are born with predispositions to certain addictions and diseases, due to- guess what?! Genes and diseases that run in a family can be extremely scarring and dangerous. I know that people can argue that this genetic modification process could lead to alteration of hair, eyes, and other appearance factors. This could be a fad, blah, blah, blah… but I say it’s not like we decide what we look like anyway. So if our parents chose, what’s the difference? None. Heck, if I had blue hair, I wouldn’t care anyway. Seriously. Brown, blonde, red, and black is getting kind of boring, isn’t it? And dye kills your hair, apparently.
Often this can bring up a bunch of arguments. What if it turns into a cloning method? What if everyone starts to look the same from fads? And… ok, stop with the objections. First question answer/ contrasting statement: So? The type of person mostly depends on how they are brought up, anyway. Adolf Hitler was raised to be that way, ya know. No, really. Okay, now on to the second question: Every parent is different. Weird people like me won’t follow fads, because fads are stupid. Sorry, but that’s just my opinion. Remember people, everyone is differen; just like everyone else.
