The Sound Of Settled Science

1. Interesting article. It makes sense to pick the guy with the best jeans.

2. “If a sperm is wasted, God gets quite irate.”
   Men produce 100s of millions of the little guys at a go. We don’t keep track of them all – most will die uselessly. If one makes it, good, we don’t care which. Take your pick.
   On the serious side, I wonder if anyone has studied the genetic variation of sperm from a single source ? All good, all bad or 60/40 mix ?

3. So the egg shops for the best genes. It make sense on the micro and macro level.

4. So perhaps there IS some accounting for bad taste in choice of partners.

5. I only wish the eggs were even MORE discriminatory. America has bred a vast underclass of dependents, spawned by the promise of “=$$Aid to dependent children$$”.

6. I can just see the egg confrontation the sperm.
   Egg: ”Is that booze I smell on you, or is that chewing tabakka??”
   Sperm: ”I only had one beer, then I went straight home!!”

7. Oooops!!

8. “We’ve been blinded by our preconceptions.”
   What a shock.
