Have you heard about how Henry the VIII of England and his six wives? There’s like a whole musical about it now called SIX. Well Henry being the king that he was kept getting rid of his wives for various reasons, a large one being that his wives were not giving him male children. Well, the joke’s on Henry because we now know that sperm which is produced by men holds the key for sex determination aka it was lowkey Henry’s fault for not having sons. And you know who found out that men are the ones who control sex determination…Nettie Stevens.
