Of course, I am not suggesting that semi-imbeciles, unsuitable as life-partners for anyone, and incapable of self-control, should marry ; but I do say that we must distinguish between marriage and parenthood in the case, for instance, of Mendelian deafness, where the unfortunate individual may find and give joy in marriage, but should not become a parent. We may do far more harm than good, in the fashion I have hinted at, if we make no attempt to realise a discriminating justice in such cases. ...^ -^ The problem of the "impure dominant, 9 '- Negative Eugenics 181 The importance of the distinction upon which I feel compelled to insist here will become appar- ent when we consider the real meaning of the American demonstration that many serious de- fects are Mendelian recessives. It is that there are many persons in the community, personally normal, who are nevertheless " impure domi- nants " in the Mendelian sense, and half of whose germ-cells accordingly carry a defect. According to a recent calculation, made in one of the bulletins of the Eugenics Record Office, about one-third of the population in the United States is thus capable of conveying mental deficiency, the " insane tendency/' epilepsy, or some other defect.
