Description

Antinatalism definition: Antinatalism or anti-natalism is the ethical view that negatively values procreation. Antinatalists argue that humans should abstain from procreation because it is morally wrong (some also recognize the creation of other sentient beings as problematic). In scholarly and literary writings, various ethical arguments have been presented for antinatalism.

Reason:

While Pro did make an argument, he did forfeit 2/3 rounds, while Con kept making arguments. Therefore arguments go to Con. For the same reason, Conduct will also go to Con. Spelling and grammar will be tied since I saw no errors from either side. As for sources, Con was the only one to provide any, so Sources to Con.
