I would take serious issue with this. We'd have to start up a new program - Save the Males. Keep them in nice comfy rooms with full 'net/computer/sat/game access and all the food and drink they need (within reason - health is a concern, of course). We'd have whole preserves of them. Just imagine - room after room of men. Mmm.

*ahem*

No, no - not just for procreation. Like I said earlier, kinda like you guys. Let's keep y'all around.

It never took less than 25 to me, at the height of my 13-year-old "slim fitness" of a 22-23 BMI.

Past 25 it always takes at least 45 minutes and past 30 more than one hour and a half.

So "sex" can become a costly procedure, that MAY require funding to make it accessible to everyone (i.e. If it's too expensive then only rich women can have children)...

OR we can keep sex as it is: free (in terms of money), pleasurable, and accessible to all ;)

I see that yoshin there lacks a sarcasm/humor filter ... because anyone seriously believing that men, or any other human, should be put in zoos or the like, needs a bit of a reality check. Just sayin'.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.

All sorts of weird, unusual, and outright dumb shit will have to take place for "males" to become redundant.

Yes, it is.

My main reason to defend the Republic is how it is dehumanizing and discriminatory against the people in royal families.

This is... probably not true.

Surveys say that women commit more domestic violence than men.

Arrest records show more men are arrested.

So... there may be some issue of male perpetrated domestic violence statistically being more severe, but I question your presumption that its more frequent.

It's the only compelling reason I've found provided the monarch is purely symbolic, and it's a very compelling reason.
