Opposite Sex Need Not Apply
“Scientists turn bone marrow into sperm,” by Fiona MacRae - Courier-Mail [Queensland, AU]
Scientists are ready to turn female bone marrow into sperm, cutting men out of the process of creating life. The breakthrough paves the way for lesbian couples to have children that are biologically their own. Gay men could follow suit by using the technique to make eggs from male bone marrow. Researchers at Newcastle upon Tyne University in England say their technique will help lead to new treatments for infertility.
It's a brave new world boys and girls!
