I asked Google. Albert Yuzpe invented the morning-after pill. Here he is. I am not going to make a comment about the fact that he is a lone male in with this group of young women: genesis-fertility.com That surely has no bearing on human sexuality, reproduction, mating partner selection. edit... on reflection, it would provide lots of opportunity to investigate fertility and related topics. He has certainly got a good job. Anyway, as implied in your question, blokes have even invented a way for women to change their minds after the act, and certainly in the event of rape, and to reject any unwanted fertilized eggs. In olde-time evolutionary thinking, the fact that Islamic Jihad has got hordes of breeders going flat out would suggest that the enemy males would be over-run, killed and the Islamic Jihad gene carriers would be the males available for all women to choose from. But that's how the old days worked, when one simply armed a swarm of young guys with pikes, swords and axes and sent them over the horizon to extend the tribe's control. There is more to evolutionary success than numbers these days. No longer is it how many men an army can raise which determines the outcome [plus or minus a bit for determination, esprit de corps, home ground advantage, and all that stuff]. Now it's who has the biggest bang, the longest range, most accurate, Predator drone and the best deletion techniques in cyberspace. Numbers are not quite, but almost irrelevant. A billion foaming at the mouth Islamic Jihadists wielding box-cutters couldn't beat 1,000 Albert Einsteins with a collection of noocular bombs on Predator drones. Now, a mere 300 million Americans can beat any collection of Islamic Jihad, and that's with the majority of Americans pretending to be couch potatoes with not much more talent than being able to click a remote, and order a pizza. It is more than ever a quality issue, not a quantity issue. Moslem women should put more effort into their quality control and less into the idea of martyrdom for their children and simple bulk production. The blokes they are producing are not up to success in the modern world. No wonder those blokes want the clock turned back 1000 years. Come to think of it, women around the world are not doing a good job of quality control. Mqurice PS> I see they have listed their staff in alphabetical order, which puts him last, being Yuzpe. The whole idea of alphabetical order has always annoyed me. The people at the end of the alphabet are always given the short end of the stick, miss out on the goodies in short supply, are last out of class when the stupid teachers do things in alphabetical order, etc. That year after year second-class citizen status soon causes permanent psychological harm when inflicted on children. They have given all their first names. Why not use the first name in alphabetical order? Then he'd have come first, being Albert.
