"Sex may be fun, but - admit it - the prep work is pretty onerous. If you're not preening to
improve your appearance or trolling the local watering hole for a likely mate, then you're busy
extracting clever remarks from your brain while forking over big bucks for wilted arugula and
fancy umbrella drinks/ So maybe our microbial brethren have the right idea; reproduce asexually.
In fact, we could be a step closer to this amoeba-like way of producing progeny. Scientists have
managed to create sperm in the laboratory, which hints that sex may go the way of hula-hoops
and the Homburg. Could it be that men will be handed the reproductive pink slip?"
