with mononuclear reproduction (cloning), sperm is technically not necessary.

Do they think a woman invented the machinery behind that?

Do they think a woman invented the science behind that?

Do they think that a virus won't just love a batch of identical people?

Wasn't Huxley's Brave New World something akin to that?

“Brave New World” was more a situation where people where genetically engineered to fit into certain ranks of society, thereby harmonizing said society.

Well, along with drugs like soma, and the occasional orgies.

Yeah, I would imagine a batch of literally genetically-identical people would indeed be quite the smorgasbord for a hungry virus.

I do imagine that one of these days, someone somewhere will get around to cloning to a human. Or building a Replicant.

Ten to one it’ll be the Japanese. They seem to be into that whole transhumanism thing.
