This HAD to have been a report prepared by the Lesbian Man Hater Club Intl.
Men may be in danger of extinction because of sperm banks, fertility treatment and human cloning.
A report in the British Medical Journal claims attitudes to the role of men in society may also hasten their demise.
Professor Seigfried Meryn says men already have higher rates for all major causes of death, shorter life expectancy and women can now do their jobs just as well.
Professor Meryn, who will speak at the First World Congress on Men's Health, says: "There is a sustained increase in psychological disorders in men, including alcohol and substance abuse, mid-life crisis, depression and domestic violence, while men's increasing aggression also remains an unsolved health and societal problem.
"Over 30 wars and conflicts rage around the world are, mostly created, maintained and aggravated by men."
Professor Meryn says there is speculation about the continued existence of the gender. He says: "With the advent of sperm banks, in-vitro fertilisation, sex sorting techniques, human cloning and same-sex marriages, it is reasonable to wonder about the future role of men in society."
The professor believes the launch of initiatives such as the International Society for Men's Health, the European Men's Health Forum and Men's World Day, tomorrow, will help the problem.
Dr Ian Banks, president of the European Men's Health Forum, said men worry about their health but feel unable to talk about it until it is often too late, reports the Daily Mail. They can find attending a general practice surgery difficult and they often find it "male unfriendly".
