Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it's actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that's really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

I don't know about everyone else, but the way my partner describes being horny and not being able to turn it off sometimes really concerns me, like it seems to me that having something so distracting and in the forefront of your mind constantly would be really upsetting, like an addiction, and how would you focus on other things when that's happening? I definitely believe the composition of the human body and the reliance on chemicals and hormones is a huge hinderence to our further intellectual evolution. Obviously overall they are super necessary in the functioning of our bodies and were integral in our evolution up to this point, but now that we have the ability to be sapient and have the technology within our grasp to one day separate the mind from the squishy, fallible, salty meat sacks, my vote is wholeheartedly for a cyborg existence. My back hurts and my head hurts and and I'm too hot and too cold and dehydrated and hungry and I need to pee and that is just too many obstacles between me and the knowledge and betterment of humanity I crave.
