SpiceMan Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Sweden's fertility clinics are racking up a serious backlog of people waiting for artificial insemination, due in part to a "spike" in demand from lesbian couples for vital supplies of man juice. So bad have things got that prospective customers at Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Gothenburg are now forced to wait 18 months for treatment. The problem, the Göteborgs-Posten explains, is that a 2005 law change granted "female same-sex couples" the right to fertility treatment at Swedish hospitals. Previously, this privilege extended only to married women or those who were "registered heterosexual partners". Inger Bryman, Sahlgrenska's head of gynaecology and reproductive medicine, told the paper: "We had estimated an increase of around 25 couples per year after the law change. Now there are 90 couples in line." Sweden's lesbians are not the sole cause of the sperm drought. Swedish law allows kids to learn their biological father's identity once they turn 18. This hasn't done much to encourage donors. The main reason, though, is apparently duff sperm - "either related to deterioration while being frozen or to medical conditions". The upshot of the Swedish sperm crisis is that couples are increasingly looking abroad for their impregnations, principally to Denmark and Finland. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/07/24/swedish_shortage/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shygye Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 That Swedish PC law is the cause! Who wants potentially dozens of 18 year olds showing up on your doorstep or your parents doorstep, demanding a relationship and money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALHOLK Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 That Swedish PC law is the cause! Who wants potentially dozens of 18 year olds showing up on your doorstep or your parents doorstep, demanding a relationship and money. Absolutely correct. The law is based on the principle that all children have right to know who their father is. Although it might be a sound principle it is counter productive in this case. Swedish children have a legal right to inherit their parents. This right cannot be changed in a will. Hypothetically a number of kids could as you said turn up on your doorstep and call you daddy and there i nothing you can do about it. This is a pretty strong deterrent to potential sperm donors. Just another example of how political correctness equates stupidity. regards ALHOLK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALHOLK Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 Wow ... the dykes might actually be reduced to having to shag a guy. Not at all. They just have to pop over to Denmark to get impregnated. That's what they do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shygye Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 ... it takes a bridge to produce a child. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALHOLK Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 Not at all. The ferries worked fine before the bridge was built. When I was young and lived farther down south we often used them. Our objective was however to become drunk rather than produce children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
