The lamestream media told you:
Just in time for Christmas, a London zoo announced a virgin mother awaiting offspring — for a Komodo Dragon lizard. The beast, which has been in captivity all her life and has never been exposed to a male, has achieved what is known as parthenogenesis, says Maria Cheng of the Associated Press.
The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:
News of a virgin birth is even more bizarre sensationalism than the recent revelation of pregnant homosexuals, specifically lesbians. How a single, unwed, virgin animal got the missing DNA for a baby was unexplained, though it has been seen in 70 species, scientists say, and probably has been explained somewhere. No disparaging remarks about human virgin births were made.
A retired science teacher in the tiny berg of Strawberry, Arizona, pointed out that laying an egg that hatches is not exactly giving birth, but this point would clearly harm the story’s intent. The paper delivered no correction.
