NYTimes: Men, Who Needs Them? [View all]

Actually a great article. Written by a guy. Some pretty good lines like:

"your father’s 3.3 picograms of DNA comes out to less than one pound of male contribution since the beginning of Homo sapiens 107 billion babies ago"

"When I explained this to a female colleague and asked her if she thought that there was yet anything irreplaceable about men, she answered, “They’re entertaining.”"

Entertaining or not, this doesn't look good. Oh well.
