Previously in a post of a couple of days ago I passed on info that a film was being filmed where Vanessa Williams was to play a mother to a child conceived via DI who was searching for her child's sperm donor. FQ on the SpermDonors Yahoo Discussion Group found a blog post further describing the film as:
"a comedy about a high-powered single mom who opens Pandora's box when she seeks out the anonymous sperm donor father of her 5-year old son. The father turns out be a much younger, self-absorbed California slacker."
Part of me reading this is thinking is why is Hollywood or rather this screenwriter portraying the donor as a slacker? Do people want to trivialize this topic? At the same time maybe it will provide us all a good laugh at ourselves and I guess anytime this topic hits the mainstream media, especially with a name actress involved, we should be happy to use it as an opportunity to push for reform or at least recognition to break down walls of ignorance.
Make some cash donating Sperm?
ReplyDeleteHarv...this blog is being written by a guy, namely me, whose semen contains virtually no usable sperm...Did I misunderstand your comment?
