Monomad: Anti-Contraceptive Society
That afternoon, when the highway was still congested and people were still busy with their daily activities in the office, in the factory, or in the market, I chose to walk around the outskirts of the city. The path I was walking on looked deserted, while dense bushes filled the sides. I found another life that was calm but thrilling.
There were ladybugs mating on the reeds—the beetle is known to have a hyper-hobby in mating. They were not the only ones; I also caught a pair of gold dust weevils doing the same thing.
I chuckled at their behavior. I remembered our government issuing an appeal to use contraception during sex. This is because the human population growth has recently been increasingly worrying, while the unemployment rate is increasing. "Two or three children in a family is more than enough." That was the point emphasized by the government.
At the same time, I witnessed another life without rules, without any worries. They mate and reproduce freely, maybe 3 to 5 times a day, and that is without using contraception. There may be thousands, or even millions, of newborn ladybugs and weevils at any given time. They don't have to worry about feeding their babies since nature provides for their survival.
