Male+Male= Baby

from the scientific-what-ifs dept

Sound strange? Well, it isn't natural but it may soon be possible. Using well known scientific techniques it may be possible for men to have children with each other (I'm sure there's a large possible market in San Francisco for this). The only catch at the moment is that it isn't ethically allowed (hmm...do I smell blackmarket babies?).

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    ........ewwwwww

    Funny comment on SF, Ryan......

    but.....gotta wonder.....just eww. Brings up the ethical question, if we could.....should we? [JP?]. Anyways......sounds like more reasons to hate God and love human achievement. I feel sorry for the human race right now.....acutally, no I dont, they brought it on themselves.

      I thought it was a pretty amusing comment on SF (but true!). I think it's sort a cool technology but that's because I'm looking at it through my previous life (a molecular genticist).

      I don't really think it should be done yet because we don't know if there are any possible problems that scientists have overlooked but eventually what's possible becomes a reality (either legally or illegally). I just hope that a lot of people think it through first though.
