How long before scientists use bone marrow from a woman to create sperm cells?  When they can do that will men be 'optional' for giving birth?

FYI, the resulting baby will always be female.

This is really bizarre...  I have no idea.

So our distant future will be completely made up of lesbians?...  That would be hot, except for the fact that I wouldn't exist at the time...  damn...

I think it's pretty safe to say males won't be obsolete anytime soon.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Yeah, that's right. Narrow down the variety in the human gene pool. That'll really help us defend against disease evolution.

worst case scenario men aren't needed for reproduction, but they are always going to need us to loosen the peanut butter lid.

Well it would actually help in some cases, like diseases carried on the X chromosome where males have the disease if they have one affected chromosome and the woman needs both chromosomes to be affected, if they only have one they are a carrier.

But other than those... yes I agree.

Of course, I'd have no problem with gene therapy, but capriciously removing an entire sex from our species poses a bit more risk. Psychologically as well. And it certainly wouldn't help us in the case of a civilization collapse.

but what will happen if they can create eggs from bone marrow for gay guys to have kids? what will an YY be? male? female? super duper male? hermaphrodite? who knows.

Oh NOES!!!! heaven forbid that the gays get kids!!!! they will turn our whole society gay!!!  so what if they can create eggs for gay guys to have kids? i don't even know how that's relevant.   as far as the YY question....good question i really don't know.  I think it would lead to some kind of mental retardation though.  since every other gene in the human body is an XX pair i don't think a YY combo would be good at all.

You can't have a YY because the fetus would terminate itself. Men have XY so they could, theoretically, produce males or females.

When confronted with the sceptre of a male birth, many feminists objected on the grounds that it diminished the sanctity of womanhood.  I wonder if they'll raise the same objections to this...

Women will do anything to get rid of men. But when we're all gone, there will be no one for them to bitch at and take their rage out on and they'll turn against each other and destroy themselves. Women are the end of humanity and demise of our civilization. I predict that without men, a society filled with women will kill each other off because of extreme PMS'ing, car crashes due to poor driving ability, and any other accidents that leaving the kitchen might incur.


BTW, I'm not against women at all and this post is a light-hearted one. I'm just getting back at them for all the times women have hated on man.

They cultured these cells in the laboratory and coaxed them into becoming male reproductive cells, which are scientifically known as 'germ cells'. Genetic markers showed the presence of partly-developed sperm cells called spermatagonial stem cells, which are an early phase of the male germ cell development. In most men, spermatagonial cells eventually develop into mature, functional sperm but this progression was not achieved in this experiment.
They didn't actually create functional sperm.  Don't start worrying yet.

I suppose the word 'bone' is now a triple entendre?

Only if the disease is recessive..... There's a 3:1 ratio for males:females (who would arbitrarily have the disease) if the disease is recessive but a 1:3 if the disease is inherited with a dominant characteristic so it all evens up in the end........

And the vast majority of what we need to function is contained on the X chromosome (its a lot bigger than the Y chromosome) so 2 Y chromosomes would be a big /fail.

But once men are gone women will have no need to be sexy. We're the gender that has such specific tastes that we force women onto eating disorders and such despite having men who are disgusting slobs. The world will probably be full of uggos at that point!
