No misconceptions, you can always bank on the US | Emma Tom | The Australian

Holy cow! In Australia, if you are a sperm donor, you can be legally found by your offspring!

While individual states have their own laws governing assisted reproduction, there's been a nationwide trend to enact disclosure legislation enabling children to track down their biological parents, even if that parent's involvement in the conception was limited to a brief jiggle into a laboratory beaker.

And what is worse, is that if you have extra sperm laying around, it is illegal to sell it because that is the equivalent of selling children.

In Australia, buying and selling sperm is considered the same as trafficking human organs. Offenders face a maximum penalty of six months in jail and a $4400 fine.

Holy crap. Sperm. Little wiggly things. Unused jizz.

I think we are getting a little carried away with this Right To Life thing. I mean, I agree there are other ways to go (adoption is an awesome thing!!), but if woman wants to have a baby and a man wants to donate...what is the problem here? Good grief.
