    Statistics show that only 44.8% of custodial parents receive all the child support they are awarded, so I don't think this would be the most effective argument in favor of keeping you around. Rather, it argues in favor of getting rid of more than 50% of you, right off the bat.

    Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

    I grill veggies all the time. Did some portobello mushrooms and zucchini last week.

    Imagine the über-drama of an all-women society - it's like a doomsday movie without nukes.

    Women would like to think they'd do just fine without men.

    Contemporary society allows this. But when the shit hits the fan women still look to strong men for security, because they know (or at least should know), that there are other strong men looking to take advantage of them.

    The article also says:

    Gay men could follow suit by using the technique to make eggs from male bone marrow.
    Yes, the sexes need each other. Do we even need to ask this?

    I should also point out that this article is from 2008.

    Yes. Shouldn't be long until the technique is perfected.

    It is safer to create the sperm from bone marrow and then use it to fertilize the eggs naturally in a woman than for males to make their own female eggs and then try to create a baby in an entirely laboratory environment since this will cause high risk of genetic disorder.

    Is this like a single mom advertisement thread?
    Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
    Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
    Towards the sun, carry your name
    In warm hands you are given
    Ask the wind for the way
    Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
    Accept all as it is and do not blame
    God or the Devil

    You should read John Varley or Sheri Tepper.

    The former writes (as a side character, mostly poking fun) at a bunch of lesbian latter-day witches living on colony at one of the Lagrangian points. (Wizard, gaia trilogy) Awesome books.

    The latter is about a post-apocalyptic society of city states run by women, where nomadic male tribes are relegated to the role of genetic breeding stock. (Gate to Women's Country).

    Loved the Wizard trilogy. Might have to go pick up a fresh set of 'em... lost the old ones to the ex-thorn-in-my-side.

    Nah... good books never die. I enjoyed books from my dad's collection that were written before I was born. Still do. Starship Troopers anyone?
