Bad Luck for Men

 
Today is Friday the 13th and the bad news for men is a report that women may have discovered how to have babies without us [The prospect of all-female conception]. All the babies will be girls.

Fortunately, Steve Palter is on to it over at docinthemachine [Babies Without Men: Creating Sperm From A Woman’s Bone Marrow]. He's a fertility specialist and he reviews the science behind the story. As it turns out, pathenogenesis may not work. Imprinting may save us (temporarily) from a fate worse than death.

It all started when we let them vote. Our great-grandfathers knew it would come to this eventually.
