THE RISE OF Artificial Intelligence, robots and IVF means that the role of men in the world has become increasingly redundant, says a top biologist.

“Classical males, who once provided for and protected their mates and young, are everywhere being replaced by machines, and the introduction to and domination of, females in spaces that were once ruled by men means that the utility of men is being slowly eradicated,” says Professor Lucid Case. “The Feminization of the human race; the redundancy of the male sex.”

“Nature and evolution abhor redundancy, and should men no longer be deemed necessary by nature, they will simply vanish, slowly at first, then very quickly. I can imagine a hyper-feminine species perhaps morphing into some kind of androgyny if men disappear, depending on how reproduction is to be accomplished, if at all. The male we know and recognize would be gone. Never to return. 10,000 years is not an impossible deadline. Or maybe even earlier.”
