Separate articles on sex / asex reproduction
We could really do with this, unless it is already here under a different name... Anyone got any ideas? Mark Richards 21:29, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)
I agree that sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction need their own articles. Cloning should be mentioned in or linked from the latter. I would also add more material on non-biological reproduction to this article, including document reproduction (e.g. List_of_duplicating_processes) and any other forms of replication which might exist (in fact or in fiction) in the universe. I'm thinking nanites and grey goo, self-assembling materials, the assembly line, the reproduction of a painting, photography, teleportation, sound recording, the reproduction of messages i.e. communication, etc., mold-taking of statues and fossils, three-dimensional printers, and so on. -- Beland 03:14, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- The strong association between sexual systems and reproduction leads to a biased (at the least) view of sexuality as part of reproduction. Thanks for pointing this out. Actually it is perfectly legitimate to view the sexual processes as separate from the reproduction. Reproduction is for multiplication; sex is for recombination and saving alleles that may be valuable in the future. --Etxrge 10:30, 8 May 2005 (UTC)
Marxism uses reproduction as a term to describe the social process of creating the material and social aspects of society Fifelfoo 05:53, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC)
