Children in Britain born from donated sperm could soon be given the right to trace their biological fathers.

What are your views? If you are a guy who has, or would, donate sperm would you think twice before donating if you knew you could be contacted by any children produced as a result?

Yes. it would definitly affect my decision.
Unless I choose otherwise, I should have the right to stay anonymous.
I don't get to know or choose who uses my sperm. should be the other way around to. they shouldn't know me either, unless both sides agree on giving away their identities.

It would make it even harder for me to do it into a cup.

Funnily enough, I was a doner and a friend of mine who writes for the local paper asked me if she could interview me about this topic.


My feeling is, if a kid over the age of 18 wants to know, then fair enough. My only worry would them having a financial claim over me (because I'm so broke!). The idea of them knocking on my door in 13 years time doesn't bother me at all. Might even get a pint out of them (of beer!)
