I have one question for you if evolution is the survival of the fittest does it not seem odd that all through out nature it requires a male and female to pro create. In all the diversity of nature which came first the male or the female and is it not quite a dicey situation that it takes two to procreate? How many things grew and died and did not find another mutation that fit it's genetic code to procreate and how does or did two different plants animals and such know what or who was there's opposite match so to say. Quit a very in effective way to evolve having two to make one offspring.

In the womb we start with both sets. The simplest sexual reproducers are hermaphrodites. Other animals can reproduce clones of themselves and males are entirely optional.
