This article appears to be a crank theory, as well as incoherent. All the links are either by this theory's creator or unrelated. I recommend that this title be redirected to sex.

Delete It is a crank theory and incoherent gibberish as suggested above. The Y chromosome, for example, has very few genes on it and is not a platform for experimentation as suggested. This is well known empirical fact. Also, in some animals the chromosome that functioned in a role similar to that the Y fulfils in humans has long since disappeared, as there is no real need to have a special chromosome to have the separate sex. The Y in humans is, itself, predicted to disappear with the few functions it is currently responsible for relocating elsewhere. When the Y disappears there will still be males and females. Males will be X and females XX. The evolutionary advantage of sexual reproduction versus asexual reproduction is the same as for less complex organisms. Sexual reproduction provides greater genetic variation among the individuals which makes the species more robust to attacks from things like viruses and so on, and other rapid changes in an environment. The advantage of asexual reproduction is the rapid elimination of less optimal variations, as they are replaced (outcompeted) by the most optimal variation. However, asexual reproduction risks the line being extinguished if some threat that is tuned into the narrow range of ‘optimal’ variations comes along. This is not so much of a problem for less complex organisms, as new lines are being created at a reasonable rate. However, as more complex organisms take longer to develop from the less complex organisms, they need to be using sexual reproduction to get to the more complex stage (without being extinguished at some earlier stage). --203.214.3.114 (talk) 23:15, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Why are there only two sexes for more complex organisms rather than three? Three sexes really add nothing as far as increasing variation among offspring and if all three sexes need to be involved in reproduction a species having three sexes would be at a disadvantage in species against species competition, because two sexes getting together for reproduction is easier than needing three. --203.214.3.114 (talk) 23:34, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
