@scathach it's hard not to be one. some things just hook into the tribal monkey brain and then one acts that way. i try to be principled, but it's hard some times and of course i fail [insert something religious]. at least being aware of this does help massively though.
it's incredibly frustating though that almost everyone else just doesn't care at all. feeling physically well is enough. could as well put 'em on soma, two minutes hate and a breeding program.

For sure, biologically, at least 50% would do it without hesitating or thinking about it at all.
The other 50% see you as direct competition so unless you have clear terms and beneficial goals to build up cooperation, that's a wise approach.
