MEN are DYING! Scientists Reveal Men's Y-CHROMOSOME is in DANGER
GetsetflySCIENCE by Gaurav Thakur・2 minutes read
Men are facing possible extinction due to the significant reduction in genetic data on the Y chromosome, while females benefit from healthier chromosomes and genetic diversity. The degradation of the Y chromosome poses a threat to men's survival, potentially leading to the birth of a new human species with different characteristics.
Insights
- Men are facing a potential extinction threat due to a significant decrease in genetic data on the Y chromosome, which has lost 97% of its DNA code, leaving only 3% remaining.
- Genetic diversity and recombination, crucial for species survival and health, are highlighted by the dangers of inbreeding and the degradation of Y chromosomes, emphasizing the importance of maintaining genetic information for future generations and avoiding potential extinction risks.

"Y Chromosome Decline Threatens Male Extinction"
- Men are facing a threat of extinction due to a decrease in genetic data on the Y chromosome, which is unique to males.
- The Y chromosome has lost 97% of its DNA code, leaving only 3% remaining, indicating a potential extinction of men.
- In contrast, the X chromosome found in females has maintained its genetic information and is becoming stronger with each generation.
- Females benefit from healthier chromosomes, leading to better color perception and protection against diseases and aging.
- Chromosomes are structures made of DNA that bind genes, which are specific pieces of DNA responsible for physical features.
- Chromosomes are always found in pairs, with 23 pairs in each human cell, including sex chromosomes X and Y.
- Genetic recombination, where chromosomes exchange DNA, leads to diversity and adaptation in offspring, enhancing survival rates.
- The W chromosome, unique to males, has also faced a reduction in genes over time, similar to the current crisis faced by men.
- Inbreeding and incest, as seen in historical examples like Egyptian pharaohs and the Habsburg family, can lead to severe genetic disorders and diseases.
- Genetic disorders resulting from inbreeding highlight the importance of genetic diversity and recombination for species survival and health.

"Genetic Abnormalities and Y Chromosome Extinction"
- Genetic abnormalities can be passed down through generations, leading to the creation of destructive DNA codes that can result in the destruction of lineages, as seen in the case of Egyptian pharaohs.
- Scientists are concerned about the degradation of Y chromosomes in males, with evidence showing a significant reduction in size and gene loss over 300 million years.
- The Y chromosome is at risk of extinction due to genetic defects that cannot be repaired, leading to the loss of active genes and potential extinction in the future.
- While some species have evolved to survive without a Y chromosome, experts are divided on whether humans will undergo a similar evolution, potentially leading to the birth of a new human species with different characteristics and a new concept of masculinity.
