Artificial Uterus, Fiction or Near Future?

[Bob in a quantum-state-of-faith]

And where's the fun in a world without women?

It's true that dealing with women could be tough sometimes ( just kidding of course), but I can't imagine the world without them.

Spooky idea...

Oh, I can well imagine such a world.  Wouldn't want to LIVE there...

I can also easily imagine a world without men-- with a quicky sex-change, I think I could live there....

It's been said that the average male thinks in sex at least once every 5-7 minutes. When a man is able to spend more than 7 minutes without thinking in sex he is called an intellectual...

I think that beyond chauvinistic motivations, the question is what happens if we remove the reproductive imperative from our psyche? Do we become more mentally productive or would we let ourselves die? How important is that motivation?

[Kiyoodle the Gambrinous]

Is it actually possible to remove the reproductive imperative from a male mind?

[Sibling Zono (anon1mat0)]

Who said it is only on the male mind? (my wife just this morning was telling me -again- that she wants a baby)

I doubt it can be removed without some major rewiring.

[Swatopluk]

We are working on that.

I was more thinking of the sexual act of the reproduction than the reproduction itself.

The male sex drive is largely the result of trying to sublimate the imperative urge to play cricket and take cold showers.

[Kiyoodle the Gambrinous]

I didn't know there were actually people that had the urge to play cricket... I though they are force to play (and watch) it as some kind of punishment.

Cricket was invented to keep women opressed washing whites. Everything is circular.

Women have sexual urges too, although -it would seem- less frequently (partly due to social restrictions/demonization of female pleasure, etc).

About the relation between cricket and sex... WTF?! Perhaps the phallic symbols but it seems more like the intention was similar to the invention of corn flakes.

[Swatopluk]

Indeed the thought of corn flakes doesn't turn me on the least.
The first one to make a dirty banana joke will have to eat 10 gallons of banged grains .

[Kiyoodle the Gambrinous]

Anaphrodisiac?

I'm not eating corn flakes ever again. The last thing I want is to lose my sexual drive.

I think stuff like that should be prohibited.

It's probably one of those English things that doesn't translate 

But think about it. What could we possibly mean when we say "It's not cricket".

Let me guess, it's not football either?

With all due respect for all brits here but I can't believe that English sex is that boring.
