"Behind every great man, the saying goes, there's a great woman. And behind every sperm, there may be an X chromosome gene. In humans, the Y chromosome makes men, men, or so researchers have thought: It contains genes that are responsible for sex determination, male development, and male fertility. But now a team has discovered that X—'the female chromosome'—could also play a significant role in maleness. It contains scores of genes that are active only in tissue destined to become sperm. The finding shakes up our ideas about how sex chromosomes influence gender and also suggests that at least some parts of the X chromosome are playing an unexpectedly dynamic role in evolution."

Almost kind of like....the exact same thing I (and others) have been saying on here about the cannabis plant! Right? That the "X" chromosome also contains male genes, not just the "Y"?

Life is a hell of a lot more complex in reality than humanity's simpleton theories would have us believe!
