I have no issue with thought experiments. However, your choice of words (i.e. "useless male") clearly illuminates your nasty intent. As such, I can't afford your original post any interpretation more charitable than sexism, regardless of your attempt to frame it now as a "thought experiment".
Edit: In response to your follow up, "useless" can be used as matter of fact, or as an implication of "worthlessness". Again, your choice of words "applied feminism" betrays your claim.
- gillci 4y agoWell if they're not needed any more to supply sperms, then in terms of reproduction they would be useless wouldn't they. That's the only purpose of a male when compared to the female - this is a simple fact, no need to take it personally.
- nomel 4y agoArtificial wombs are nearly feasible. I think, in some horrible future, your genocidal thoughts could be applied to either group.

There is nothing factual about this unless your world view is an infantile one which believes the only valuable difference between men and women is the ability to create sperm vs the ability to carry eggs. Common complaints from women clearly reveal that isn't the case.
