A very interesting Scientific breakthrough has occurred. Researchers at Kyoto University in Japan have created viable mouse sperm from stem cells. This may soon solve the problem of male infertility.

My swimmers probably work just fine, but I don't suppose anybody ever knows for sure until they actually try to have a baby. As a man who dreams of one day having my own children, it's nice to know that there is one less thing to worry about.

It's just not the same when you adopt, both in a genetics sense and in a parental sense.

We already solved this problem a long time ago.
Get a new man......
Or visit the sperm bank.

I don't think the post I deleted, has anything to do with the topic that this thread is for.

Here I was in good mood and suddenly a thread about Semnae's swimmers slaps me in a face. I'll just log out for a week or so...

It's better than his swimmers slapping in your face, though.

If you can't procreate...I'm guessing there's a reason! Don't pass on your messed up DNA! Though on the plus, you could bang whoever you wanted and not worry about a kid, but NOW they throw a wrench in there when you're GF throws the CURE in your drink and comes back w/"It ur baby!!!"

I heard about this on the radio. Women could theoretically be both the mother and father of a child if scientists took stem cells from them and magicked them into sperm...

kitamesume · « **Reply #14 on:** August 14, 2011, 06:39:22 PM »

^ that just weird, its like maintaining your bloodline or something. sadly pure bloods(i`m talking about ppl that are 100% British, Chinese, American or else) are rare, if not completely lost, to even try maintaining their bloodline.

I'm very well aware that it's not a nice thing to say. But, if you can't have kids normally, don't. We have enough people walking around with inherent diseases as it is, no need to make more. I'm against it as I'm against IVF and the like.

If you wanted to get a career while you were in your 20's and only started thinking about family when you're in your 40's to 50's. Well, it sucks to be you, you traded away your chance for a career.

There's a reason why the chance of fertilization goes only downhill with every year once you have passed 21 or so, and with over 35's being in a "increased risk" zone. Guess what, 40 year old eggs do not make good healthy babies and as said earlier, it sucks to be you if you are in this position. But that is all it is, it just sucks to be you.

pingryanime · « **Reply #18 on:** August 15, 2011, 04:17:43 AM »

Er, I'm 100% Japanese... (At least as far as I know... which is about 10 generations) (and 10 generations ago, marrying anyone other than Japanese was like, sin... So probably defintiely 100%)

^No such thing exists.
