two gametes come together to make a zygote-a.k.a. fertilization-a.k.a. having a baby. all gametes produced by women (eggs) are female, or X gametes. males however produce both female-X, and male-Y gametes (sperm). as the Y gamete is specific to males only (where as both men and women have X gametes), i'm thinking that damien's "gamete disease" is representative of all males in general. so he's pretty much saying that every one with a yolk is essentially worthless. damien is a wise man...

i don't think he's necessarily talking about him having defective sperm...
