News update

I saw the news today and was shocked to read that scientists have found a way to make sperm artificially from the DNA in skin cells. If this were to come about would women need men anymore? (they don"t seem to need them where I live anyway) What are the implications for mankind if this came about? I could imagine a scenario where men would be the fairer sex and women would be the dominant power.(perish the thought ha ha!) This may already be happening with girls doing better at exams at school. But at least in the most popular sports men are still the main contenders. Tennis is a good example. Lower seeded women players played their matches on centre court as long as they looked good on TV - the organisers actually admitted this. The men's game still garners the most interest though. The Federer Roddick final was an epic battle of the will to win and lasted over four hours, whereas the women"s final was far less tough even between the Williams sisters and was over in little over an hour. We just have to hope that this development doesn"t become mainstream as it would mean that a woman could be both mother and father to a child. I just hope and pray that we as a society will not let it happen.
