women seem to become broody, especially as the biological clock starts 
ticking in their 30s. Men seem not to be so affected. Women often 
desperately desire babies but their partners don't seem bothered. If humans 
have a desire to reproduce why don't men feel as strongly about becoming a 
father as women do about being a mother?
