Re: mind control, bimbo transformation
Oh, it's the "Men are going to vanish" discussion?
No they aren't. Gender is a useful survival strategy for a variety of reasons, (including parasites, as Fri said.) The Y chromosome might vanish if a better way of defining who is male and who is female pops up. But if it doesn't - it seems to me that a "placeholder" chromosome with no working genes is possible. Genes elsewhere might detect the Y, and make you male if it is present, without the Y itself doing anything - just like some guys I know.
