It's The End of All Men As We Know It.... And I feel fine....

News Flash:  Men as a species are endangered.... An article I just read by ABC News highlighted a topic I had heard about but had not really known much about..... Apparently, men as a whole are devolving rapidly.... "The Y chromosome, which once contained as many genes as the X chromosome, has deteriorated over time and now contains less than 80 functional genes compared to its partner, which contains more than 1,000 genes. Geneticists and evolutionary biologists determined that the Y chromosome's deterioration is due to accumulated mutations, deletions and anomalies that have nowhere to go because the chromosome doesn't swap genes with the X chromosome like every other chromosomal pair in our cells do. " Below is the link from ABC News..... http://abcnews.go.com/Health/ MensHealthNews/ story?id=8104217&page=1#.T0e8nn ngrQY
