No laughing girls. This is serious stuff..........I was on the Net reading some very important men's stuff, and came across......... In the biological battle between the sexes, the Y chromosome has suffered defeat after defeat. The male-determining chromosome has seen its gene supply shrink from more than 1,000 genes when sex chromosomes first evolved, to what scientists once thought was only a handful of genes, a downward trend predicted to continue until the Y disappeared altogether. One by one, Y-chromosomes will disappear, eliminated by the relentless onslaught of irreparable mutation, until only one is left. When that chromosome finally succumbs, men will become extinct. (sniffle.)...but....I...dont wanna go. Who's gunna plow the field, and reap the harvest. That's it...(sniffle)............... we're finished. Tony, who once lived in Oz. ( R.I.P )

Don't worry Tony, as long as there are spiders in the bath, science will not let men disappear.

Tony, mate what have you done? The women will have us running around in animal skins just like the Stonenge gang. That article has set the male population zooming to oblivion long before it's time . Any spare room at your place ? life aint goin to be worth living here.

Quite capable of ploughing my own field, thank you very much, and it'll be a relief to do it without some man hanging over the fence and saying "I wouldn't do it like that". Don't worry though, Chaps, someone is bound to start an appeal to save the Endangered Species - just think, a lovely cage, lots of free bananas and women paying good money to look at you.What's more, they will think all your dirty habits are dead cute!
