    The use of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, used during in vitro fertilization, for medical screening and sex pre-selection is ethical so as long as it is done for the child’s best interest and not for superficial desires of the parents.

    Abortion on Demand Abortion on demand is the idea that women should be able to access abortion services at any point during pregnancy without having to undergo legal complications. There is a never ending debate on whether a fetus's personhood begins at conception or at the moment they are born. Depending on religion or specific beliefs the answer is always different.

    Regardless of which side of the argument I would like to think is morally correct, one thing remains clear: as the technology of external wombs is getting closer and closer to becoming a reality, we as members of this society need to start asking ourselves some serious questions.

    Direct female-female competition is an important feature of woolly monkey reproductive biology. Direct competition regarding reproduction among males was minimal despite the fact that females mated with multiple males. Relationships with females were similar in the sense that they were generally tolerant but non-affilitive; females often directed harassment toward copulating pairs.
