In the not-so-distant future, it may be possible for lesbian couples to have their own biological daughters.

Women might soon be able to produce sperm in a development that could allow lesbian couples to have their own biological daughters, according to a pioneering study published today.

Scientists are seeking ethical permission to produce synthetic sperm cells from a woman’s bone marrow tissue after showing that it possible to produce rudimentary sperm cells from male bone-marrow tissue.

The researchers said they had already produced early sperm cells from bone-marrow tissue taken from men. They believe the findings show that it may be possible to restore fertility to men who cannot naturally produce their own sperm.

But the results also raise the prospect of being able to take bone-marrow tissue from women and coaxing the stem cells within the female tissue to develop into sperm cells, said Professor Karim Nayernia of the University of Newcastle upon Tyne.

Creating sperm from women would mean they would only be able to produce daughters because the Y chromosome of male sperm would still be needed to produce sons. The latest research brings the prospect of female-only conception a step closer.

To rational people, this might seem like nothing more than an interesting (and possibly helpful) new development - but for the fundies, it is a sign of the masculine apocalypse:

Let’s see, now that the lesbians can reproduce free of “evil” men, I wonder how long it will be before one of them gets the idea to create Neo-Amazonia and purge all who possess the Y chromosome?

They’d have to get past Islam to do it.

Once the homosexuals succeed in destroying what’s left of Western Civilization, there will be nothing to protect them.

I new this day was soon approaching. The next step is the gender-specific virus.
I think there were a number of sci-fi episodes and even movies based on such concepts.

The Revolution will be swift; the Neo-Amazonians will soon have the entire planet in their rule. The newly-created man-killing virus will be unleashed into the water supply, and the few remaining men will become enslaved workers in the diamond mines. Witchcraft will be declared the New World’s official theology, and having abortions will become something of a national pastime. Buahaha!

Or, you know, not.
