You would need a host mother. Since both the egg and the sperm would have half of your own genes if you have any negative recessive genes the chance of reinforcement would be heightened substantially.
There is another option though. Previously to get an
exact clone you needed to clone a female as the mitochondria and other materials that come from the egg alone not from the nuclear material supplied from an "adult" cell. That meant that male "clones" were not exact. Now a male can provide the egg as well as the nuclear material and the clone can be more exact.
What I view as most important is that more ways have been found to make cells perform as other cell types. If this continues a time may well come where organs may be grown outside the body for transplant purposes using the patients own cells as the source. Continue further and perhaps grow new organs or even limbs in place.
Taken a little further then perhaps grow custom new organs or limbs for special purposes or modify existing ones. A mini booster heart for example in the lower torso to reduce the load on the natural heart for example. Other enhancements for athletes or military personel perhaps.
Or course such things will cause ethical questions that will need to be answered.
If homosexual couples want children, let them adopt any of the millions of children around the world that live in abject poverty.
Nice in theory but gays run into two issues. One is of course outright banning of gays adopting the other is indirect by blocking
unmarried couples and individuals from adopting and by not allowing gays to marry that option is blocked to them.
Currently this type of "creating" a child is not illegal and bypasses those two blocks on having children. I'm sure that for some gays the parenting instinct is strong and the desire to have children might cause some to use this method until it is legally blocked.
The ethics of course are more appropriately discucssed in Hot and Spicy so lets keep this as much on the side of science as possible or make a parrallel posting to Hot and Spicy for the stronger issues. Right guys?
