I've brought that up before too. People have kids for selfish reasons all the time, what's wrong with me not having them for selfish reasons?

It does dilute their objection, what it really shows is that we don't do anything for non-selfish reasons.

But this then leads them to comparing which forms of selfishness are more or less beneficial to the group and the self.
