so I randomly got to thinking about Fetal Alcohol Syndrome whilst (fun word, I know) I was tanning today.
side note: I refuse to defend my tanning. winter is depressing because it's dark before I get home from work - and I should probably get a sun-lamp like Sarah Palin does because she lives in the ass-crack of the arctic. But I dont have a UV lamp. And I only tan twice a month. so stick that in your pipe and smoke it
my ponderings ran along the logic of: society unawareness of the effects of alcohol on fetuses, combined with expensive/widely unavailable home-pregnancy tests (which would indicate that most women found out expecting much later in the pregnancy) - and if modern medicine is correct about alcohol's negative effect on fetuses' adult IQ - there would have been a much higher occurance of lower IQ adults in society at that time due to Fetal Alcohol Syndrome.
Which if that were true, would prove that over time, human society overall has become smarter.
Because once the discovery of the cause-effect relationship of inebrieting alcohol whilst pregnant, majority of women would decrease (or preferably cease) to consume. Combine that affect with discovering pregancy closer to conception that ever before (which decreases unknowing consumption) = lowered occurance of FAS-affected babies being born.
and then my friend pointed out that, alcohol has a lot to do with a lot of babies being conceived in the 1st place. And that for this scenario to work, people would actually have to use their brains.
and further realization that Paris "thats hot" Hilton and Kim Kardigashigan are still on TV and helping PPL and other skeezy tabloid rags to sell... that people have actually like being stupid. It eases the difficulty and complexity of life.
oh, and men are still emotional fcuk-tards :-) have a great weekend
