When defining eugenics, it can be divided into two parts, positive eugenics and negative eugenics. Positive eugenics refers to breeding of people considered to have favorable genetic characteristics. However, negative eugenics is suspected of breeding by people considered to be poor genetic traits. Whereas negative eugenics refers to those born in poor families, one does not need to be a scientist to understand that positive eugenics refer to them from privileges and wealth.
