These guys not only "can't see the forest for the trees" They can't find the tree because they are too busy trying to count the leaves!!

Maybe they will miss out on the idea that if they don't have some sex that their particular strain will die out!!

OK, Imagine a world where there are no men, and women reproduce by asexual cloning. The world would be populated entirely by women.

All alike. Same hair, same eyes, same legs, same...everything! The world population would increase to about a dozen women. Each exactly the same. Then someone would have a birthday party and they'd all show up in the same dress. In absolute lunacy, they'd all murder each other. End of humankind.

With men there, however, each man tells his woman, "No, honey. Her dress is just a cheap knockoff!"

The race is preserved!

hmmmmm.....if the "perfect woman" (if there is such a thing) was "mass produced"......that'd be cool

[kenyg]

umm, I try and study as often as I can...

what'd be the point?
You'd have the exact same thing everybody else had, so you would not appreciate her "perfection"

how can something be better than something, if they're all exactly the same?

What I'm saying is, how can 2 be more than 1 if 1 does not exist?

If we have all 2's than 2 loses its value

Its like down here in VA, IMO BMW's have lost their status because it seems like everybody and their brother (other than me) has one.

the "perfect woman" can't be mass produced, because what's perfect in one man's eyes may not be in another. we are talking about perfection here after all.
