        The passage that was sent to the list seemed to indicate that he didn't want to be a mega-playboy, but it was his fate, so he couldn't change it. His wanting to stay that way might be considered a selfish act, since his descendants caused a lot of problems to mankind in the future (at least the DNA^2 series seemed to indicate this).


In any story where the AMS cosmology is present, destiny comes from God 
anyway, so he can change it if he wants...

He's making the wish with some information from Skuld about how his 
children were treated in Karin's timeline, and wants to prevent the cruelty 
they undergo by making them of ACKNOWLEDGED and REWARDED benefit to mankind 
in general.


  I think he could also wish to remain sexually active without actually being a mega-playboy, or at least without leaving a multitude of other mega-playboys (and -playgirls) as descendants.

        Of course, you can always say he didn't think of it when he made the wish, after all, even as a mega-playboy he is only human and prone to errors :).
