Malky,
Please provide some scientific journal references for your claim that males can pass on mtDNA. Unless you are talking about bivalves rather than humans, I don't think you will be able to.
I am aware of a single study, of a single individual, where the researchers claim this happened. It was done 10 years ago. One case does not make for a generalizable claim. As far as I know, nobody claims that that mtDNA can be inherited from the paternal line. Science requires that claims be backed up with evidence, and that studies can be replicated, before they are accepted as providing valid conclusions.
