This chapter needs more work, about 1-1.5 hours. I haven't slept well in recent days, which affects efficiency

"For us,"

The receptionist said, looking up at the blue sky, It seems that my thoughts have drifted elsewhere: "... Getting rid of libido is a very simple thing. It is not only technically simple, but also mentally there is no barrier that cannot be overcome. Its impact on human psychology is too far-reaching and unpredictable, bringing countless distortions, struggles and pain, but the obvious benefits are not much. In the words of your commodity society, libido is already an obsolete product."

After his voice fell down, Lin Sanjiu couldn't speak for half a minute.

As soon as the cat doctor heard the word "human psychology", he closed his eyes again, which coincided with the attitude of the early medical mainstream towards psychology; Bohemia's expression was as blank as if the receptionist had just suddenly sung an Italian opera - among the few people present, only Lin Sanjiu realized the weight of these words.

No wonder

Looking at the receptionist's half hidden smile, the little question in her mind was finally solved.

After experiencing the "garbage man's morning", the vague question floated in the depths of her consciousness; It was neither big nor important, but it made her uncomfortable like the gravel in her shoes.

A man with outstanding appearance chose to become a garbage man, because he could get the greatest spiritual satisfaction in this job - and the receptionist said at that time: "for us, there are too many things that can make our body and mind happy, and the pleasure brought by appearance only accounts for a small part."

... how is this possible?

Anyone who has a certain understanding of human psychology will know that this group is almost impossible to ignore appearance. Judging people by their appearance is a biological behavior passed down from the ape man era and encoded in human body by genes. One of the most important reasons is the connection between appearance and sexual reproduction.

The most primitive aesthetic, which is also the basic aesthetic prevailing among various cultures, is a kind of discrimination and pursuit of health: ruddy complexion, clear eyes, neat teeth, rich hair... People think that unhealthy individuals are ugly. Courtship to the opposite sex with healthy characteristics is essentially to better reproduce the next generation. Even the same-sex courtship, which does not have the function of reproduction, also reflects similar consistency; As for the various aesthetic diversity developed in culture, it is later.

If human beings have no sexual drive

Lin Sanjiu couldn't think of it anymore when he thought of it. Because her imagination was not enough to make her guess what the human mind would be like without libido. Libido is not just a sexual reproductive force, although it comes from sex; One psychoanalytic theory even believes that it is the root driving force of all human behaviors. Even eunuchs who have lost their * * officers, or elderly people who are dying, libido has always driven and affected their lives in a variety of psychological forms——

"Hey, what is that libido?" Bohemia leaned over and asked softly.

It was too complicated to explain clearly to her - Lin Sanjiu was still immersed in various Thoughts Aroused by shock, and just waved his hand like a fly. Bohemiaton stretched his face and glanced at the cat doctor sleeping on his skirt. It was not easy to hold back his anger.

"This... How is it possible?"

Lin San looked at the receptionist and couldn't understand this concept for a moment. Unable to imagine it, she didn't even know where to ask for good, so she could only murmur again, "how is this possible?"

"In order to avoid you sleeping too," the receptionist glanced at Dr. cat and smiled, "I won't introduce the technical details in detail. I'm not a psychoanalyst, and I can't introduce the impact of this series of changes in accurate academic language... If you are interested, you can see the relevant academic papers - Oh, I forgot, you won't read the words here."

He frowned slightly, and seemed to feel a little tricky: "I can only describe your personal feelings and understanding... My hobby is writing poetry, so the language may not be accurate, please forgive me."

Lin Sanjiu nodded.

"Due to my work, I know more about other human societies than ordinary locals. But the deeper I understand, the more I feel the rarity of mushroom society... Of course, that's another topic. In my understanding, other members of human society are judged by others all the year round, right?"

"You mean -"

"When a person walks into the eyes of others, he can never get rid of the following series of value judgments... For example, what kind of work he does, what kind of car he drives, whether he is fat or thin, how dark his skin is, where he is from... Endless judgments. If you don't judge by these standards, your society simply doesn't know how to treat a person."

This is indeed true.

Lin Sanjiu looked at Bohemia beside him. Up to now, this dialogue seems to have been far from the topic; Bohemia cocked his head and listened with confusion, but he was still trying to understand what they said. As for whether her idea has wavered, Lin Sanjiu can't guess at all.

"But in the mushroom world, when we look at a person, we only see the person himself. We will not judge the value of this person because of any external factors - you are beautiful and rich, and I will not envy you; your facial features are underdeveloped, and I will not hate to escape you. When your eyes are still on the surface of strength and beauty, what we really want is the spirit between people Contact. As you can see, there are no concepts of money, status and rank in our society, not only because we have generally found spiritual pursuits... But also because after eliminating the pursuit of money that will only bring negative effects, we have removed the biological evaluation criteria in our body. This enables our society to look directly at a person's purest essence. "

This is a lot of information, which is not easy to understand. He stopped here, as if he wanted Lin Sanjiu to digest it.

"When you first arrive, you may ask, without the stimulus of money, what do people use to drive society forward? My answer is that if you want to make human progress, there are far more powerful factors than money, such as belief, ideal, hobby, sense of mission... Too many. Similarly, you may ask, without libido, what do people use as the driving force to make society operate and race multiply?"

Lin Sanjiu nodded imperceptibly - the wound behind his head was in pain again.

"The first thing to say is that giving up fertility is a personal choice, and not everyone has to do so. But now the trend is that more and more people realize the benefits of getting rid of this heavy, primitive biological instinct. So people like me have been increasing in the past two decades."

He smiled and covered his mouth with his fist. For a moment, he looked a little shy. The popularity here is very good. It's not easy to tell their age, Lin Sanjiu can't say how old he is - "secondly, even if we give up fertility, we will continue to fulfill our responsibilities as a member of the population like other humans... Because we like here and the world. Because we like it, we want it to last for a long time and cleanly. For this reason, we are willing to donate all sperm and eggs, or raise our own clones."

As soon as the last few words came to his ears, Bohemia breathed heavily.

Even if the genetic similarity between parents and children, it would not make the mother and daughter even sound so similar... Lin Sanjiu glanced at her and whispered, "do you remember the reflection Meijia saw in the puddle? If you can ignore the wound and swelling, she is completely her mother's teenage version..."

In this way, when they first entered the world, they once saw a report of a kindergarten fire at Lao Da's home. The unhappy parent on TV also seemed to be an infant himself in his arms.

But

Lin Sanjiu suddenly became a little uncertain.

So what?
