Build-a-baby: The Personhood Conspiracy (2014)

Imagine the possibilities of creating life from ova or sperm made from skin cells. Sounds like sci-fi, right? Not anymore. Skin is now a "gender-neutral" organ of sexual reproduction, and if you penetrate the skin without consent it is rape. In 'The Personhood Conspiracy', Paul Ryan (fictional character) is the biological mother of a skin-cell rape baby. (I know right.) Here's the actual science driving the film's plot. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-19827287 #petzygote
