Do we really want a world without men?

AC Grayling, philosopher There are some utopias in which the world is free of men and aggression, and I find that rather attractive. I'll be in the queue for a sex change if ever that does come about!

It may very well be that in many generations' time humanity might decide it wants to be a neutral sex or something. If that's the case, then that's okay, too. Who are we now to legislate against people in future doing things with science that they regard as being an advantage?

Rosie Boycott, journalist and feminist The idea of a world without men is horrible – think how boring it would be. Men cause most of the things that go wrong . . . and in the long run women will save the world because they care about the environment. But I don't think the way to achieve that is to eliminate half the world.

Haha, you're having fun with that image, aren't you?
Don't be scared to fly alone, find a path that is your own
Love will open every door it's in your hands, the world is yours
Don't hold back and always know, all the answers will unfold
What are you waiting for, spread your wings and soar

This will not eliminate men.
The majority of women are still heterosexual and people enjoy sex and relationships.

This will be a boon for infertile men, and lesbians, but eliminate males? Give me a break.

Hmm...

you know..

If I met the right girl (me and hubby, we're rather "open" and willing to share you know... ) I would consider being a dad this way.. my genes ain't half bad you know. I'm tall, dark and handsome, and rather intelligent if I may say so myself.

:o

Can I be mommy?

And a world without men would suck...

Feminists get on my nerves, it's not like women are better, or anything... *sigh*
If you do not agree to my demands... TOO LATE
