Untitled[edit]

Certain geneticists employ a different definition for "Negative Selection", which is "the elimination of 'negative' genes".

Unless I am mistaken, this is the term applied to the observation that (a) smart people have less children than not-so-smart people, and (b) intelligence is heredetary, a case that bears mentioning in connection with the eugenics/dysgenics bit. As an observation, it doesn't promote eugenic ideas as such, nor any value judgement about the resulting evolutionary patterns, though many might be inclined to draw such conclusions.
