Why Humans Don't Lay Eggs

<div class="IPBDescription">Alternate title (Your loins will tear)</div> For the longest time I always pondered the validity of egg-laying. So many animals lay them, and even 1 particular furry animal (Not a weird **** animal that dresses up and has sex in fur-piles, ala C.S.I.) The mighty platypus. Why do so many animals lay eggs, but mammals tend to have live birth?


Lets look at it from an extremely complicated and scientific angle.

As you can see, as eggs make for great protection and a way to reproduce without hassle, humans are simply not built for that kind of thing.

Why do YOU think eggs and humans are unviable?

    Our babies are too fragile. They wouldn't be able to make it out very easy at all.

    Yes, the human infant, wouldn't be able to crack the egg shell, of course one minor flaw there CWAG. Most animals born via egg, don't develop inside the mother, so it could be possible for a smaller egg to be produced and then have said child develop in the said egg.

    Simple. Human babies have no egg-teeth <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Well there's that, and we aren't birds/lizards/<insert species that lays eggs>

    We used to lay eggs, but lost the art in the dark ages. Ever wonder why Easter is tied in with eggs? Jesus was put into a very big egg that <i>looked</i> like a cave, and was reborn like that. Everyone used to lay their eggs on easter. They didn't hide them, they put the eggs in warm places for the eggling's benefit.

    Mother nature is really innovative like that. Consider for a moment the human baby. All those years of evolution and getting smarter turned our brains, and thus our heads, into giant smartballoons. In order for this head to pass through the female ****, mother nature invented a freaky system called fontanels, like, when a baby is young, it's skull consists of not massive bones, but of shells that can slide over eachother, so it's head effectively becomes smaller and fits through the **** easier.

    Mother nature could easily have made the **** wider to make babies fit through them better.

    But she didn't....


    and that's why I think that Mother nature is actually Father nature.

    We may not have an Egg tooth, but we still have tails... Well tail bones... Anyway i dont think were laid in eggs, because girls wouldnt have something to complain about. And we all know what women do when they dont have something to complain about, oh we dont, because they always do...

    Probably not in the <i>traditional</i> sense of "egg".

    I wish I could lay eggs, I could live out my fantasy of living Yoshi's Island! Would that be considered homocide though?
