When I worked at a vets, he told me that it is better if they are fixed before they ever come into heat. They have fewer tumors if they are also. If you do not get your pet fixed, they are more likely to get tumors.
Mine have all been fixed before they were 6 months old for that reason. They do not miss what they have never had. One of the most nurturing and motherly dogs we have ever had was fixed before she came into heat.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
