Heard from 98.7FM that the scientists created men sperms using stem cells. Amazing? yeah.. I find that very interesting.. well, somehow it was successful and in that case, men are no longer needed in this world for reproduction. I feel so proud to be a women out of a sudden with exceptions to aunties visiting every month.. =DD
I have attached the research from the website below. Very interesting.
Human sperm created from stem cells

Scientists have created human sperm for the first time from stem cells. The research, carried out at Newcastle university, may enable infertile men to have children, while provoking another ethical debate on the progress of reproductive biology.
The scientists cultured stem cells, derived from a male embryo, with special chemicals to set them on the path towards becoming sperm. A few of the cells underwent the crucial step of meiosis - cell division - followed by growth into mobile sperm with a head (to fertilise the egg) and tail (for mobility).
Some of his early work led to stories about "an end to men", enabling lesbian couples to have their own biological children without male involvement
ALL MEN IN THIS WORLD..
DO YOU FEEL KIND OF USELESS NOW? HAHAHA...
