Does that reduce the value?

Ted Turner would say so. Prince Philip of England would say so.

It’s only european people who are having the feminine anti-self pro-others ideas that you express in post #1. Asian people do not feel like that. African people do not feel like that. Arab people do not feel like that.

No, it merely means that we are not presently in danger of extinction as a matter of raw numbers. We're humanity facing extinction, I can assure you that I would be most rueful of our imminent demise. I'm well aware of the demographic issues we face, and my post in #1 is not feminine, anti-self, or pro-others, it's merely an expression of my personal displeasure at the longterm trajectory of humanity existing in a homogenized world devoid of all things beautiful and natural. I enjoy nature, I enjoy things that are wild and yes, a little dangerous. I enjoy them for the sake of their beauty and fascination alone. Unlike some, I don't see that as being at odds with humanity, I see that as enriching the human experience.
