Shhhh..... I'm studying!

Just think, if your name was "Studying", I could be doing you on my bed right now.

But really, homework inspired blog writing so here goes (You are all getting a well deserved break of my waterpolo life)
I was really just wonderign about human nature and how we evolve. Supposedly meiosis is designed for recombination of human genomes and that is to be able to fight of pathogens.
But as we evolve acoording to our needs and to have a bigger chance at reproduction but also try to limits the costs of energy in evolving (the better designed system will be adapted) then how will we adapt to all the medication and cleanliness we are developing?
I mean, so far so good, we are living longer and can produce offspring till later ages. But what if our genes decide they need to fight less because we have found external ways of doing that like medication. Is our system going to eventually evolve part of our immune system out of our building plan?
Take asthma. The rates are increasing and sure that could be because we live in unhealthier circumstances and we are exposed to more factors that trigger it, or possibly simply because are detection methods have become more accurate and we have given the problem a specific name, but those are not proven facts.
What if we all just carried one of those inhalers to take whe n we felt the need to breathe easier? the hormones? that you inhale also add to physical output so we can perform at better levels, our own system could use the extra enegry for other purposes and seeing as we have a solution for things like that we could even stop worrying about pollution alltogheter?!
Okay I know I'm taking this quite far, but think ab out it, how much do we know about how we adapt to our surroundings? Where is this whole problem of cancer coming from? How come we are never done making medicine? It's like an arms race, who has the bigger bomb is the one who will survive..

OPTIMIST!

And now I feel another rant coming on the point/function of the female orgasm, but I'll save that rant for later.. need to study it some more first...
