The way I see it, it only could come down to two points:

1. Disabled people should not reproduce with each other if it is very likely that a deaf child would result from their union. You know that if they hadn't been homosexual, they would've each found some deaf spouse & had deaf children for themselves.

OR

2. The right to choose one's own egg/sperm donor. At my college I saw an advertisement for an egg donor who was a honor student & at least 5'10", so I'm assuming that there's no law against choosing a donor based on specific trait.

What they did was sick, just saying that I don't really see a legal basis involved unless they actually physically hurt the child to induce deafness... #1 would open up too many cans of worms.

How about this: People grow up, fall in love, get married and have babies (in that order). Then whatever happens, happens. I know, that's awfully parochial of me, isn't it?

You have presented great points, IMO. Your point #1 really does reframe the issue in my mind. Thanks...
