Shocking facts I learnt today at the hospital
-
they let you into a room where there are porn shows and magazines and you do it yourself.
many years ago, Straits Times got write up on this what...so sua ku.
but strangely, recently i've been thinking about this sperm donation thingy too.
like, if that donor is a very er xin kind of person or very stupid or ugly or whatever...then the child will inherit such genes. it's so sad!
and i always thought that a child is special because it's the creation of you and your loved one... something both of you create...nobody else can have that creation that both of you made...it's the one and only in the world. that's why it has to be cherished.
for me, if i cannot have a child with the man i love, then i think i will forget it ba. no children lo...i spend my short remaining years with my loved one.

basically they want more pple to donate sperms or eggs for their human+animal research, if you make sperms or eggs donation, they will do research on your clone to become half human half animal to make use of your cloneÂ’s organs, free of charge, and then the remaning will be thrown away like rubbish.

But this two sentence has always captured my heart of one such parent and child:
Inscribed on the wall of the child's bedroom:
"Though not born of my flesh & blood; but born of my heart."
And the child's retorts to bullying about the adoptions in school:
"Your parents has no choice to give birth to you. My parents CHOSE me. So you think you are superior?" -
I believed one of the write-ups is this article:

Hope for childless as 15 offer eggs or sperm
'Surge' in potential donors after ST report on infertility
By Wong Sher Maine
EGG donor Karen (not her real name) winces when she recalls how she had to
fight her fear of needles to give herself daily hormone injections, but
smiles when she imagines the joy she has brought to childless couples.
The 30-year-old management assistant is one of a handful of women in
Singapore who has donated her eggs, and done it more than once.
In 2002, the divorcee went under general anaesthetic in January and June at
a private hospital's fertility clinic to have 31 eggs extracted.
She was told they were divided among three couples - two Singaporean and
one Indonesian Chinese.
She was not paid a single cent.
Karen wants to do it a third time at the Singapore General Hospital (SGH)
to help childless couples recently featured in a Straits Times report on
infertility.
In the past five years, SGH has come across only two walk-in egg donors.
When asked why she was willing to go through what many women would not even
consider, Karen said: 'What else am I going to do with my eggs? They are
just flushed away every month.'
Since the Straits Times report was published a fortnight ago, 13 men and
two women have walked into SGH and KK Women's and Children's Hospital to
offer their sperm or eggs. An SGH doctor described it as a 'surge' because
the hospital had just three sperm donors and two egg donors last year.
Both hospitals have patients queueing up for eggs and sperm, and they have
to wait up to two years. Figures were not available from the National
University Hospital, the remaining public hospital which accepts such
donations.
All the potential donors are now undergoing physical and psychological
tests to assess their eligibility to donate. According to Dr Julianah Abu,
an SGH obstetrician and gynaecologist who runs the sperm bank there, about
two-thirds are usually found to be suitable.
She added that the number of sperm donors, however, still outnumber egg
donors because egg donation involves hormonal stimulation and an operation.
Three potential donors, who had e-mailed The Straits Times asking how they
could donate their eggs, explained that their desire to help childless
couples outweighed whatever physical or emotional pain they would have to
undergo.
A 33-year-old single, who works as a journalist in Malaysia, said: 'More
than organ donation, which is about extending life, egg donation is
life-giving. I feel assured that the child will be specially cared for,
since the couple had to go through so much to be parents.'
A 26-year-old part-time student, who loves children, said: 'My heart goes
out to those who want kids badly but cannot have them.'
Karen said she equated egg donation with blood donation - she was simply
helping others.
She dismissed the possibility that her children could end up marrying one
another. 'The chances are so remote and anyway it is okay for cousins to
marry.'
She decided to donate her eggs shortly after she began divorce proceedings
against her husband, an aircraft engineer, at the end of 2000 when she
discovered he had a mistress pregnant with his child. They did not have any
children.
'I may never have the chance to marry again or have children but if I can
help other couples, why not?,' she said. She reckoned that since she had
good genes, with no family history of cancers or genetic illnesses, she was
a good candidate.
She was also determined to 'experience and live life to the full' after her
divorce, engaging in what she called 'dangerous activities' like riding
motorcycles, operating cranes, sailing boats and flying planes.
'Anything can happen to me. If so, I know I have done my part as a human
being in reproducing, though I may not have been the one to bear and look
after my child.'

That man did not go to CARE...went to some cosplay sex club...Originally posted by aiglosicicle:i have this vague memory of this skit or play that talked about sperm donation. the nurses were helping the man -
when a couple is really in desperate for a child, who care the quality of sperm?
