One step closer to a world without men...

So the thread this goes in was locked down like Fort Knox, but do you think the scientists are going to take the hint and stop researching this stuff? Of course not!

Femitheist is going to be pleased to hear that scientists are one step closer to reproduction without men:

The research is actually an attempt to allow infertile males to reproduce, but has, as a side effect, produced information on how a species can survive without the Y chromosome altogether. Not only would men become unnecessary, but they would no longer be born anyway.

Good thing I'm stocking the world up on extra boys, just in case...
 
I wonder if such a world were to happen, would lesbianism become widespread? Or would the majority of women just not be interested in sex.

There's actually been studies on this, mostly in regards to prison populations.

The studies say sex would still happen.
 
If I haven't already mentioned it, threads like this usually just make me wonder whatever happened to the YY genotype. Why did it lose the evolutionary battle? Where did it go?
