[QUOTE="sfs, post: 44607327, member: 8727"] The future is hard to predict. I'm not quite sure what you're asking. Many traits that were of importance for humans in the wild are likely decaying slowly. Examples would include eyesight, speed, sense of smell. Maybe even intelligence. To some extent decay in some of them may be offset by sexual selection for the same traits (e.g. athletic men get more women than couch potatoes, and may end up producing slightly more babies on average). I have no idea what the long-term future holds. Once humans develop the ability to manipulate our own genomes, I really don't know what is going to happen. [/QUOTE]
