If a robust and cheap genetic engineering industry existed, would you have your genes edited? If so, what genetic changes would you choose to make? If not, why not?

A Friend’s Answer: No, I wouldn’t, because I am fabulous. (Demi)

My Answer: I would give it a go, but only something small which wouldn’t be catastrophic if it went wrong. Something like thicker hair or being a bit taller etc. So, enhancement instead of changes.

A Friend’s Answer: No, I’m practically perfect in every way already! (Demi)
