Bush can no longer be a sperm donor. (It was horse sperm, anyway.)
The FDA is saying that homosexual men can't be anonymous sperm donors.
"Under these rules, a heterosexual man who had unprotected sex with
HIV-positive prostitutes would be OK as a donor one year later, but a gay man in a monogamous, safe-sex relationship is not OK unless he's been celibate for five years," said Leland Traiman, director of a clinic in Alameda, Calif., that seeks gay sperm donors.
Their reasoning is that all gay men pose a higher than average risk of carrying the AIDS virus. If that's truly their reasoning then why single out gay men. Why not black men, who also pose a higher than average risk because they're so afraid of being gay? Or drug users? Or men who've been arrested for soliciting prostitutes?
What they really don't want is "fag sperm" next to "regular sperm". No doubt at the request of some sperm bank customers.
