Dozens of women want Bronze Age hunter's babies

Dozens of women want Bronze Age hunter's babies

Dozens of women have asked to be made pregnant by a prehistoric iceman who died 5,000 years ago.

The body of "Otzi the Iceman" was discovered by hikers in 1991 as ice melted in the Schnalstal glacier, high in the Italian Alps.

Alex Susanna, director of the Bozen Museum where his body is exhibited, says requests have been received by many women wanting to have Otzi's babies.

He told Austrian broadcasting company ORF that all of the requests had been turned down, not least because Otzi's penis had decayed away.

Otzi was found half emerged from the ice and his body was first thought to be that of a modern climber. Closer examination showed he was still wearing goatskin leggings and a grass cape.

His copper-headed axe and a quiver full of arrows were found nearby and radio-carbon dating showed the body was more than 5,000 years old.

It's OK...some of us have other things to do besides FReep. And then there's me.

;o]

I actually just stopped by for a sec and saw you had been here. I couldn't resist saying "hi."

I've been around. Been down to 10 or so posts a day lately, though.

I dated Otzi. Trust me, it was overrated.

Finally, I have an excuse.

LOL. I bet Bill Clinton wishes he could be frozen for a thousand years.

Probably every time he sees Hillary in the buff!

>>>>Are we to the point that women have become so stupid that they do not realize the impossibility of being impregnated by a dead man?

That is sooo wide open. :))

But can you imagine asking your momma about who your daddy is, and she saying, "Oh, I was impregnated by AI, using the sperm of a 5000 year old man, that they found frozen in the Alps." I mean, it's bad enough what kids have to deal with when they've lost their father, or he 'r-u-n-n-o-f-t', but what kind of crazy issues do you think that kid will have if his daddy was a CAVEMAN!! And in the end, who who Otzi Jr. be able to sue for all his problems stemming from his absent father?

BTW, that's famous mountaineer Reinhold Messner looking over Ötzi the Iceman, the day after he was first discovered...

Yes why not clone a retarded deformed child from a few thousand year old corpse?

Ofcourse the successrate is only a a percentage or less among mice, and even less successfull for humans.

So you would get a small graveyard of aborted embryos/fetuses and dead babys before finally getting one that barely survives.

A few dozen stillbirths and dying babys is not much of a prize to pay for the FAME and FORTUNE that would await a FREAK like those women.

They don't even have to share any of the wealth received from talkshows and movierights with the child as it would probably die early (God willing) and save it from a live of misery and sickness.

Why not indeed.

Wasn't Reinhold Messner cofounder of the Eagles? He gets around.

I think it would be interesting to try to clone him.

Luckily for humanity people like you dont get to make such decisions.
Interesting? Why? What are the benefits? Do they outweigh the cons? Do you even have a reasoning or do you just want to do weird things cause they're "cool"?

I don't care that this article is three years old - it still deserves a ping! Besides, lots of you young whippersnappers weren't freepers back then.

Many thanks to bert for digging up the link!
