Who the hell looked at a cow's utters and said "I'm gonna drink whatever comes out of there". I was asked this a couple weeks ago and I wasn't sure. The best answer I could come up with was "A pervert with a farm animal fetish" Anyone else got a question like that?
My question for you--- If I cloned myself, had sex with my clone, would I be homosexual, or just masturbating (touching myself)?
SirRanRap (great name by the way), are you saying I can get past the whole issue by dressing like a woman? Does that count only with my clone, or with any random "girl" I pick up at the club? I don't need to beat myself up anymore about that one time he was dressed like a she i guess.
As usual Ireland... the right picture at the right moment. For a while a had a streak of blue in my hair, so I'd always tell the story of my Dad in the USA Army during Vietnam war being drunk and having "relations" with a parakeet. I stole that line from a joke but can't remember how the entirety went.
@deadrum33...LMAO!! You are a man after my own heart (so to speak). I think the answer might really depend on whether you actually loved your clone or merely using it (him, yourself..whatever) for mere pleaure. Or perhaps you'll both go blind and have hairy palms.
As far as deciding to drink milk from a cow, baby cows were drinking the milk already, so it doesn't seem to me like a giant leap of faith if one was curious, or desperate enough. If you have sex with your clone, it would be homosexual sex (not necessarily make you homosexual, of course) You're not "playing with yourself," because it's still another person when it's all said and done. [bold]If you found a way to make your clone the opposite sex, which doesn't sound difficult, that would be heterosexual sex.[/bold]But, don't try to conceive children with this person, because they would probably have genetic malfunctions. They would be the same issues as inbreeding (breeding within your family.) The cause is the "genes being very similar, but with a clone, they're identical, so you could only imagine, it would be that much worse.
Famous sex theory questioned By Julianna Kettlewell BBC News Online science staff A popular explanation for why we have frequent sex has been challenged by a report published in Science magazine. According to the Red Queen Hypothesis, sex exists to help organisms protect themselves against parasites. Parasites are constantly developing new ways to take advantage, so animals need to evolve defences quickly - and sex, say some, allows them to do this. But scientists have constructed a model, which suggests this "arms race" alone is not enough to account for sex. Clone invasion Evolutionary biologists are obsessed with sex and why we have it. It is one of nature's great mysteries because there are not many obvious reasons why we should do it - but plenty why we should not. Firstly, sex is a very inefficient way to make babies. Asexual organisms can produce twice the amount of young than their sexual counterparts. "Clones have a tremendous advantage," explained Curt Lively, an evolutionary biologist from the University of Indiana, US. "If you have a sexual population and you introduce a clone, that clone will have an advantage, because its intrinsic growth rate is higher. So the clones should take over." Secondly, if being overrun by clones is not enough, sex is dangerous. You may catch a nasty disease while engaging in the messy act and, even if you don't, your offspring are likely to inherit shoddy genes from their father. "It is a paradox why so many organisms have sex," said the paper's co-author Sarah Otto, from the University of British Colombia, Vancouver, Canada. "If you are a parent who has survived to reproduce you probably have a good gene combination, so shuffling them about is not going to benefit you." But sex does exist - in great abundance. Natural selection, for some reason, chose it. The clones have not taken over and the risk, big as it might be, is not big enough to make sex a bad idea. Red Queen to the rescue? The Red Queen Hypothesis takes its name from the character in Lewis Carroll's Through The Looking-Glass, who tells Alice she has to run as fast as she can to stay in the same place. The idea is that organisms have to keep evolving - keep adopting new genetic combinations - to "outwit" pathogens. "The theory states that parasites are selected to target the most common genotype, which is now this clone," Professor Lively told BBC News Online. "So if the parasites are successful, and very virulent, they can prevent that clone from taking over the sexual population. "But for this theory to work, there have to be an awful lot of parasites about, and they have to have very dramatic effects." And there is the rub. According a mathematical model developed by Sarah Otto and her colleague Scott Nuismer, there are not enough parasites about to explain why organisms have so much sex. Too much sex Having sex every now and again might be an advantage, Dr Otto believes. Doing it occasionally should fox the parasites. But doing it frequently probably just spoils winning genetic combinations. According to her model, if evading parasites was the only objective, organisms should reproduce sexually sometimes, but asexually often. "If you actually do the maths, the hosts that are common in the population at the current moment in time have been doing a pretty good job at evading their parasites. "A little sex makes enough of the combinations present, but having more sex breaks apart the combinations that are working to evade the parasites." Since we - and many other organisms - have more than a little sex, we might have to look beyond the Red Queen for the whole answer. "What the Red Queen can't explain is why creatures have more than a minimal amount of sex," said Dr Otto. "If organisms only had sex very rarely, then it could be the case that the Red Queen could explain that." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/3715579.stm
WOW i leave for a wile and when i come back this is wat were all discussing? HA as for the clone bit if u made ur clone the oposite sex then yes, the intercorse does become hederosexual but, does a man whos been changed into a woman get overies and a woomb surgicly implanted? because if not the idea of conceving children is completely imposible ^_^ grate to be back
How dare you talk about my wife, and post pictures of her like that!!! I think my attorney will have something to say about this!!!
This is great, I got hundreds of these. I've already made up my own answers for most of these but it's always good to get a fresh answer. After eating, do amphibians have to wait one hour before getting out of the water?
Deadrum33 i removed ye wife out of the pix,now will that keep the attorney away? that tree is history!!!!!!!
