The future is gonna be weird

Scientists have used mouse skin cells to create eggs, which were in turn fertilized (thus creating more mice). Last year, researchers were able to use skin cells to create sperm, thereby potentially eventually eliminating the male monopoly on sperm. I didn’t realize the weirdness of this until it occurred to me that if this method can be applied to humans, someone could then be BOTH biological mother and father to their own children.
