I wanna reproduce :p


You heard it right. I said i wanna reproduce. Standing 5'7'' tall on the threshold on third decade as an earthling, I feel that the time has come for me to reproduce. Well, being a gay guy, the options are quite limited as you cant follow the conventional way of heterosexual reproduction.
I was contemplating about this topic for quite sometime, as even sought suggestions from close friends and expert opinion. Result-I was called crazy :p. High school biology, says that there are two ways of reproduction, asexual and sexual. I have put forth some theories how i can produce my own progeny.
Asexual reproduction
1. Mitosis( Cell divison)
Mitosis, seems to be cheap and possible alternative. One day I may eat emormous amount of south indian food, and split into two equal halves. I hope during the division my personal idiosyncrasies wont be transmitted or atleast be divided into two.
2. Spore formation/Metamorphosis
Soon, i may take a break from orkut, and will be busy in making a cyst around me and after few months, the cyst will break open to throw in little Adithya’s(more than one of course).Or, I may spin a cocoon around me, slow down my metabolic rate, lay eggs and help them to hatch.
3. Cloning
I always admired the guy whom i saw in the mirror( its true, i am not bragging nor vaunting :p). With the vast developements already made, Dolly, being “ synthezized”. I hope this is more realistic than those mentioned above.
Sexual reproduction
4. Hermaphrodite
Wish i were a hermaphrodite. A hermaphrodite has both male and female reproductive organs.
Rest left to your imagination.
5. Surrogate mother
Jokes apart, India has become a well sought destination for surrogacy. I was shocked to see an advertisement in Times of India seeking surrogate mothers. Fortunately or unfortunately, it is impossible to predetermine the sex of the child during embryo implanting. Gays couples, generally prefer to have son.
