In The Interest Of Gender Equality….

…on Wednesday I blogged about penis theft.

So today, I saw this headline:

Menstrual Blood Shows Heart Repairing Stem Cell Properties

The lede:

Scientists in Japan have discovered that cells taken from menstrual blood can be cultivated in the lab and used like stem cells to repair damaged heart tissue.

I’m wondering who would think to look THERE for heart tissue repairing stem cells? I’m all for using non-fetal tissue for stem cell research, but this is just weird science. Sheesh!
