Life without men

Scientists claim to have grown human sperm in a lab, and columnists and bloggers are musing on the possibility of a world where men are no longer needed.

Well, you know that in some countries a woman can just visit a sperm bank and have a baby... I've read that a number of career women in the USA - especially New York - have taken this option because women outnumber men, and it's hard to find a good husband. Let's face it, plenty of parents split up or get divorced anyway :-(

I know that in the UK, single women and lesbians were using a website <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mannotincluded.com">www.mannotincluded.com</a><!-- w -->, where they could buy sperm from anonymous donors. The website came under criticism because the children wouldn't be able to trace their natural fathers if they ever wanted to. I'm not sure what happened, but the website doesn't seem to be there any more! So, I assume society finds it unacceptable to have fatherless children?

Hmm, I worked in men's jobs for years and was raised to believe that women can do anything that men do!But a lot of my friends are men, and I can't imagine life without my Dad. I think we should still be nice to men ;-) It is good to have a diverse community with lots of points of view.

Women can’t leave without men! Firstly the sperm is collected not for gays and lesbians but for those who can’t have children’s, have medical problems! Secondly I’m agree with Big Becka in child education, I can’t imagine life without dads ! It’s necessary a equal domination. Together or separately men and women have different influence in society and life! They are like us, have positives and negatives sides/aspects!

[Laurentine]

Helen M. is right. Men are irreplaceable! if a woman has doubts then she probably has a great hatred for men and just not want to admit it! The woman is not happy without men! :langue

how men can not live without women... women can not live without men. And not only on the conception of a child. That is the easier step...

That doesn't stop men from divorcing women and running away as soon as the baby is born! :lol:

Yes... go away of those to the others. :-P :lol: :lol: But... the divorce theme has a lot of reasons and I think a baby born is not one of them... Usually a baby unites family and brings a new stage in life

How on earth can men do without women? Women are witty, shrewd, caring, loving, generous and above all sexy. I couldn't imagine a day going by without listening to women, seeing them and enjoying their wonderful company in so many different ways. Am I alone in this optimism?

[Big_Becka]

M.Helen - yes you are right that there are many reasons for divorce. You have such a positive outlook regarding children! Sadly in my experience it's not uncommon for men to walk out on their families or pregnant girlfriends, or treat them badly :-( I am starting to think I should move to a country with nicer men! :lol:

Yes, I think you are! Even when they are 50, weigh 120Kg and grow a fine moustache, you still love women :love You are very sweet - I have some spinster Aunts who would be very interested in meeting you :-P

[petergiovanni]

I am not sure about the spinster aunts unless they have all the qualities I have mentioned previously.

Or may be you can not imagine a life with one woman? You say "You can not imagine", but yet ,come a day of inspiration and you find other muse, as you said younger, more interesting, more beautiful. That's way women tend to a life without men. When we need you the most you leave us, so....get used ti this.

[petergiovanni]

I couldn't agree more. Life with women is very exciting but life with one beautiful woman is the ultimate happiness in life. :-)

see? not all men are alike, I agree with that, but all you have some common principles and are so obvious, like it above for eg.

The life without men is impossible. Men are the single way for women to develope, as the unknown kind of being

[Big_Becka]

In what way do men help women to develop? :quoi

I have met men who wanted to hold me back professionally... Or have helped me only because they want praise or publicity... And I have met men who wanted me to stay at home and learn to cook and clean (while they have an affair with a skinny blonde dancer) :haha The only men who have truly helped me to develop have been those who ignore my gender and treat me as an equal. :-)

Women have to do everything these days, while men are spoilt by their mothers and favoured by their managers. If I had a child, I think I would prefer not to have some lazy man whining and making a mess in my house, whilst causing stress and stealing my time and money!

[hellodear]

I mean the differnt in sense of our being. We are so different, as no one woman to woman is, and no one man to man is.. And that is the cause that we look each at other and study to live..

[Big_Becka]

Hmm, I think I understand what you are saying. But surely this is an arguement for being part of a diverse community, with many friends and mentors of both genders?

I think part of the problem is that I belong to a community that still does not really respect women. Some men treat us like furniture: you buy a house, you buy a car, you get married... and then your boss gives you a big promotion! Other men simply don't want any responsibility: they just want you to replace their mother, and wash their laundry while they play on the computer or go out to the pub. Increasingly men stay living with their mothers until they are in their mid-30s :-P How can a woman respect a man who behaves like a little boy?!

Oh, it's a pity that you are in such conditions. But i think your ambitions will grow up your career and all the men will look at you as at the equal person)) Don't worry, be happy!))

then what about gays....? they also find a way to develope themselves... For girls is without men, for boys is without women...so is this the key of being together for a man and woman, or is somethind else?

[Riser]

if the woman is beautiful does not mean that automatically is smart, interesting, housewife and so on. It can only be beautiful! and with a woman which is only beatiful , with whom did not have what to discuss besides fashion and cosmetics, which do not know how to cook an omelet, (not saying about something else) ... not present interest.

We need to post a topic on divorce theme...is a lot to discuss, and way not, to share with experience...

The gays and lesbians are two extremeness. They go against the human nature. We are speaking about the harmonious person.
