Easy Love

When the whole world is getting ravaged in a zombie apocaplypse, wouldn't you want to ravage somebody too?

When you're holding up in some abandoned building with a few other survivors, and one of them looks pretty attractive, it would be really hard not to have sex. With the world about to end, I think it is probably a human impulse to procreate. No way to really tell, but I think its a safe assumption based on our instinct to survive. 

Would you even bother using contraception? It depends. It would be really hard having a baby in your tummy and trying to run from a pack of beasts trying to eat it out of you. At the same time, if you don't think your going to last more than 9 months, then screw it.

At this point, some of you may be thinking, would zombies have sex? I think the answer would be no. They lose all instincts other than the desire to feed. Since their bodies deteriorate much more slowly, they can survive much longer than a regular human being can. That being said, in popular fiction zombie muscles don't repair themselves, rendering zombie hordes unsustainable. Because zombies only have the desire to feed, they wouldn't reproduce. Therefore they rely solely on human reproduction to survive. In this way the zombie-human relationship is symbiotic, meaning zombies need a human population to feed on (and infect) in order to carry on their species.

  1. I really like your last question: do zombies have sex? You know that sort of reminded me about the vampire thing about how/whether they have sex, but in a more biological term but I guess you're right, desire to feed > everything...hey by the way did you do the zombie versus human thing here in school? I thought of you when I saw that!!

  2. You should follow this with a what happens to zombies after they have eaten all the humans. What do they do?

  3. This post is hilarious.

    So basically zombies don't have any feelings besides the urge to feed? That's so depressing. If two humans were in love... then both became zombies at the same time... would they still be in love?
