Scientists in Newcastle have claimed to be the first to create human sperm artificially in the laboratory. It could help infertile men and women who do not like to get married have babies. The implications can be far and wide and would upset the traditional family values that religions try to preach like there is no tomorrow. This would allow millions of Gay and Lesbian people to have children. Of course, only if there is an egg donor can this be a possibility.

The sperm cells make use of Stem cell science and many human embryos were donated for the research. Now, there have been many people who are coming in way of development, as usual. The opposition consists of self styled family value upholders, religious lobbies and traditionalists who do not like to move ahead and empathize with childless couples and LGBT parents.

Though this may not exactly be a solution in the near future, such research would go a long way in helping the humanity to stop depending on traditional medicine and expensive fertility treatments whose efficacy is not exactly worthy of discussion. You could read more about the research on BBC.
