(Continuation from yesterday)

Now we don't have any equipment and know-how about making iPS cells by ourselves.

However, this situation is very similar to those of computing environments in 1970's.

At that time, nobody could not estimate to use the present abundance calculation resources, not expect to use them for three dimension girl's character on a display that can sing and dance.

Thinking it, I am confident that biotechnology is also available for private use.

This trend will be started with the followings.

- distributing DNA maps of produce and domestic animals on the Internet

- selling DNA maps of form of my favorite pets at auction.

Needless to say, this final stage is

"designer's baby, which is designed by a couple's DNA maps with PC"

It means, making their child as they want, like making "Hatsune Miku"

I think that what you are feeling now with reading this diary, is

"Disgusted !"

only.

So, this story will be beyond the dimension of "reproduction by the same-sex chromosome".

-----

However you eat vegetables and meat on a daily basis, don't you?

Whether it is finely defined, rice breeding and clone cattle are "designer's grains" and "designer's meat" in a broad sense.

As the same creature, "only human beings are specially treated" cannot be allowed.

"Designers Baby"

"Customized Baby"

"Modified Baby"

I don't know what it's called, but it's sure to appear.

Of course, it will take time.

I've gone too far into the future, so I'll return it.

I think that “biohackers” will do their best over the last ten years.

Using iPS cell technology, I think that sperm with female genes and vice versa, eggs with male genes can be produced at home in the last 10 years.

I think that even if it breaks through, there will be less difficult things.

Reproductive equipment without sex has already been sold on Amazon (you can get it for thousands of yen).

(In the case of a gay couple, in addition to this, a request from a surrogate mother or an artificial uterus is required.)

At least, the production of these DIY-level sperm and eggs is legal at the moment.

This is because we are not producing somatic cell clones.

Nonetheless, if you open the event, you will get a social (and unreasonable, irresponsible) blame from the world.

As a same of "test tube baby".

So, this time, you just doing at home secretly.

Couples who want their children, think

"No matter what the world says, they want their children"

and they also have a mind

"Whatever they say, they don't care of it at all"

I firmly support their mind.

As long as I can, I will do anything for technical assistance, for example.
