Embryonic stem cell research, or, potentially, in regenerative medicine where it is sometimes referred to as "therapeutic cloning." One vision for successful stem cell therapies is to create custom stem cell lines for patients. Each custom stem cell line would consist of a collection of identical stem cells each carrying the patient’s own DNA, thus reducing or eliminating any problems with rejection when the stem cells were transplanted for treatment. For example, to treat a man with Parkinson’s disease, a cell nucleus from one of his cells would be transplanted by SCNT into an egg cell from an egg donor, creating a unique lineage of stem cells almost identical to the patient’s own cells.
Potentially millions of patients could benefit from stem cell therapy, and each patient would require a large number of donated eggs in order to successfully create a single custom therapeutic stem cell line. Such large numbers of donated eggs would exceed the number of eggs currently left over and available from couples trying to have children through assisted reproductive technology. Therefore, healthy young women would need to be induced to sell eggs to be used in the creation of custom stem cell lines that could then be purchased by the medical industry and sold to patients. It is so far unclear where all these eggs would come from. The sale of human eggs is normally referred to as a "donation," but women who donate their eggs are often paid thousands of dollars.
Embryonic stem cell research also brings up a moral issue and could potentially lead to human cloning.
What is your opinion on this issue and why?
this is a poll
Therapeutic cloning should definitely move forward. I think you are wrong that healthy young women will be encouraged to sell eggs. Any way – I don’t care if they sell eggs.
Why couldn’t eggs be harvested from removed ovaries? Women have hysterectomies every day. I think you are seeing problems that don’t exist.

I have a concern in reference to my wife. She is bipolar and pregnant which meant that her medication wasn’t’t working as well as it should. Due to lack of concentration and focus, I admitted her to a mental health facility so that they may find a way to manage/change her meds. This was over 1 month ago. Since this time, my wholesome Christian wife has been exposed to vulgar language, has picked up profanity, has learned of prostitution and drugs. Worst yet, she has been violated (touched) on 3 occasions. This is absolutely not what I (we) signed up for. Most recently was last week when a patient touched the front of her genitalia. This is absolutely unacceptable! At this point, I decided to have her released. After all, she went in voluntarily. She made the request which meant that an MD had 4 hours to respond. Shouldn’t be her decision to make? I arrived and the doctor began looking at me harshly through the window. He came out with a nurse and was instantly agitated stating that he is “tired of having to come up here”. First of all, it is his job. Secondly, he was on staff in the clinic. From what I have seen, much of the staff tends to stay in the office and drink coffee ignoring patients request. They hand them crayons and let them watch TV. This isn’t’t therapeutic in my opinion. I fully understand that patients may become stir crazy and want out even if they feel that they are okay. However, I know my wife better than the doctors, better than staff, and better than her family. She is my very best friend. In addition to being my wife, we share everything together. Most importantly, I know her personality and changes in it and I see that she has improved.
Back to this doctor. After explaining these concerns the nurse said that she was not violated…that she is lying. I explained that when I arrived that I walked into her room where she was crying to a CA and telling the story. The nurse said “no you didn’t…it never happened”. Now I was lying?? I then asked why that patient was placed on restriction and moved to a different floor unless there were complaints. At which the nurse said that he wasn’t. This patient was obviously very ill and I doubt that he was released. This again was the third time that she has been violated which is why I had her switched from the 3rd to the 2nd floor. The doctor then became combative though I was speaking calmly yet sternly due to the lying accusations. He told me that I had no authority and that he is going to get a court order. I again tried to explain my concerns. I stated that emotionally this has been difficult on her and she is not receiving the treatment that we anticipated. I told them that I know longer wanted her to continue with ECT due to my wife being pregnant. He said that was her decision and not mine. I told him that I would tell her (which she decided to have one more if it meant that she could be released). The MD said if she refused that he could court order that as well and that she is a danger to herself. Not once has my wife attempted suicide. She was depressed a year ago due to our separation and the loss of her father. We now have 2 beautiful little girls and a baby on the way. She would never take her life. And running an electrical current through her brain should be her decision to make. This is a medical clinic…not a prison after all. The doctor became so angry that he walked into the center room with the nurse. He began yelling and pointing to me, speaking to the nurse. Worst yet, he began being very obscene and using profanity about me. I heard him say: ‘F’ this guy, he has no ‘F-ing’ clue what he is talking about. And knocked on the door and said “you do realize this is glass and that I can hear you”. The nurse later said he was speaking to her. This for one wasn’t true. And secondly, by saying that she admitted that he was indeed cursing. This was unprofessional, childish, and disrespectful. What sort of ethics did he learn in med school?? I then mentioned getting an attorney. After that, they took my wife’s ‘blue band’. After 30 days, she earned that and had only been outside twice. It was petty and spiteful. She earned that right after a month to once again be a part of the real world as opposed to the lack of reality she has endured.
Staff has discussed her treatment with her family when there is no release of information signed by my wife. This is a direct violation of HIPAA. She has asked to speak to her doctor and the social worker said that she was not there…walked into a room…and there we saw her doctor sitting as the door closed. She lied to us yet we have been called liars. My wife has been violated and disrespected. She is easily intimidated so she goes along with much of this out of fear the staff will keep her longer. She and I now feel that she is a prisoner more than a patient. Someone to be a bed filler so the clinic can collect it’s money from the insurance. Her being admitted has even cost us our children. CPS now has them and we cannot get them back as long as she is in there. She can’t even see them now that her blue band was taken away. My wife has been violated and so have her rights. This is all unacceptable and has been a nightmare. I am so regretful for bringing her in and will never make this mistake again. My question is…what can I do to have her released. Do I need to begin contacting an attorney? Do I need to contact the Office for Civil Rights to report the HIPAA violation as well as the Advocacy for Mental Health? I will do whatever I need to in order to protect my wife and prevent anything further to happen to her or her well being. My once innocent and loving Christian wife is being returned to me and our children now somewhat tainted by her experience in this clinic. These memories will always be there and I will forever regret subjecting my wife to this treatment.
your story gets longer and less believable with each week you decide to post it.
instead of investing time and effort in filling out more detail, take the quickest route and contact a lawyer, any lawyer, and fork over ~ 75 bucks for a consultation.
otherwise, I decide you are a troll who instead of getting your wife out, should be working to join her on the inside.

In the holistic health field, I’ve noticed that far fewer men in the USA will go to a qualified massage, neuromuscular therapist than women. For relaxation or injuries, aches and pains–I’d say overall what I have gathered is that it’s about 70-30 in favor of women getting treatment. Why? Guys? Wives? Girlfriends? I CAN say that once a gentleman has been to a practitioner who is qualified, they generally stick with one person more than women do. Any ideas? Guys, since this is pretty anon. could you be forthcoming? Are you afraid of *flag up* or that it’s girly ( you won’t think that if you go for injury control or deep tissue lol). If you’ve had one bad experience, please tell that too, perhaps I can explain or get you going in the right direction. Anyway, I really appreciate any feedback-serious feedback-no fools who saw *massage* and started gaffawing like hyenas–those peeps not welcome. Aside from that, thanks for your help.
I am a massage therapist and naturopath myself and I would have 30% men and 70% women coming to me for massage. The reason that men are so stand offish I think is that they are afraid of appearing vulnerable to another man ( me ). My colleague who is female is around 50-50 men and women.
It is still seen as a "pampering" type of treatment by many. I do both deep tissue/therapeutic and relaxation massage and I find the men that do come are after the deeper tissue work. Once they come and get over the whole ‘Man " thing they will often attend for relaxation work later. From here they see the benefits of regular massage for body health as well as stress relief etc and will come like clockwork. But to answer your question I think it is the appearing vulnerable thing that men sometimes have a fear of getting past.

STUDY 3: An investigator was interested in the effects of various treatments on reduction of fear in phobic participants. He suspected that type of phobia may interact with therapeutic treatments; specifically, that the types of treatments for agoraphobics (fear of open spaces) and claustrophobics (fear of closed spaces) might be different. He divided participants into two groups based upon type of fear and then assigned members of each group to treatment groups: desensitization, insight, and implosive therapies. After three months of treatment, participants’ anxiety in the feared situation was measured.
1. Identify the independent variables in this study (careful…there are 2!):
2. Identify the dependent measures:
3. Develop a possible hypothesis for this study:
1 treatments for agoraphobics and claustrophobics
2 desensitization, insight and implosive therapies
