Butterflies are free...

There is an article on Yahoo news about a germ that kills male butterflies but makes female butterflies promiscuous. According to the article, this germ also can change males to females and allow reproduction with out males.

Sooooo, let me get this straight, there is this germ that gets rid of males or turns them into women, who are slutty little butterflies and can reproduce without the males. And they say humans are wired weird. Actually, its probably just as well humans do not have this ability. Can you see it?

Dad: "What's up with Timmy this lately, he seems so moody?"
Mom: "Well dear, I do believe Timmy is going through the change."
Dad: "I sure miss the good ol' days, when kids just got tattoos."

And who would have THE talk with boys? Dad, who explains the facts of life, or would Mom have to do that? And think about Health Class. It would totally change the way Coaches muddle through that hour every day. And the little boxes you check for male/female would get worn out from erasing. The dating scene would be a disaster, you'd never find shoes the right size again, and all the movies would be chick flicks.

"Mr. Jones, I have bad news, you have this infection that will either kill you or turn you into a woman with insatiable sexual appetites and then you are going to have child, but there will not be a father to get child support from."

Would men change their attitudes toward women, knowing that one day they might be one? And what would this do to same sex marriage laws? If your husband gets ill and turns into a woman, are you still married?

Anyway, I guess it is just as well that humans don't get infected by this germ.
