Gay infertility. Is this coming next?

When did we reintroduce morality into medicine?
It was that damn Hippocrates. Insisting the doctor not take liberty with the household female slaves.

Seriously the conflation of 'ethics' and 'morality' is always a problem in any field of endeavour.
Let's hope we've come a little distance since Hippocrates. I'd rather not go back that far. In fact, i'd rather not even go back to the 1960s, when paternalistic physicians were all too comfortable moralizing, particularly at women, about their sexual habits and procreative priorities.
