Korean Lab Worker Forced to Donate Her Own Eggs
An anonymous reader writes "According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, Dr. Woo Suk Hwang had attained international fame by successfully cloning a human embryo, but he accomplished his feat by pressuring a lab worker into donating her own eggs. Consequently, Gerald Schatten, a cell biologist at the University of Pittsburgh, has severed his ties with Mr. Hwang and cited gross breaches of ethics."
Or a totally capitalist country where everything matters except the progression of the state?
When the posters fear their moderators, there is tyranny; when the moderators fears the posters, there is liberty.
You're an idiotic little pussified twat. Making fun of someone's name is sexual harassment? Let me guess, if he said her shoes were ugly, that'd be sexual harassment, too - because anything a woman dislikes is harassment?
If the researcher's name was Dick Johnson, you wouldn't have a problem with it. Moron.
I'd just like to add that this is a perfectly natural thing to happen in a Korean company. Some say there should be a better word for weird. There is; it's "Korea."
We in the West have a difficult time grasping how a Disney-loving, triplet-fearing madman could end up as the leader of an entire country. The answer is simply that if your average Korean had no financial or legal hindrances to being as weird as his heart desired, every man, woman, and child would be just the same.
Well it's not that long. I just didn't feel like explaining it.
I used to be a lot less mature than I am now, and also very bored. The two were a volatile combination, and they made me want to troll slashdot. I set up this account to post lame "In Korea..." jokes. I forget how exactly it became my main account.
Cheers,
