ORIGINAL: RobertCloud Let's look at this logically... Logically, I would choose as company alone the TS woman. Just for the sanity in talk and conversation, however, one of our conversations would have to go to the survival of the human species which would mean the sobering up of the heroin addicted woman and the emasculation and sobering of the violent and alcoholic man. Even with the genetic code of the three viable humans, if the heroin addicted woman has damaged herself genetically or does not produce a female offspring there is no hope for the human race as far as we know without finding other survivors. Yet, even if she does produce a female child, she will have to from each male, and then we are talking other problems in the continuation of the species. Inbreeding would result in mutations and eventual extinction. Again, the only option would be to search for other survivors, or face the fact that when the four of us are dead that the end of the human race has come. Personally, I would not willingly face that. After talking to the TS woman and getting everyone ready, I would find a way to begin a trek to search for other survivors for just because we think we are the only ones does not mean we are the only ones and I would try to find others in hopes that the human race does not truly face extinction. I would rather die trying to perpetuate the race than sitting and waiting for death to overtake me. I have always wondered why talk always goes to "preservation of the human race". Why would anyone try to preserve it? It is not that I think humans are inherently bad, or anything, it is just that I can't see a duty to procreate to keep it going. If the human race dies out, well, it just adds us to the list of other species that just didn't make the grade for survival. I'd want to see the remaining survivors as comfortable and happy as possible for the remainder of their life spans, but I think it would be a bad thing to bring children into such a bleak and dangerous existence, to merely serve as breeding material for the next generation.
