He said woman may be subjected to more invasive and expensive techniques if poor-quality sperm were used.

There are thought to have been fewer sperm donors after the right to anonymity was removed in 2005.

Imported? What the heck?

They should limit sperm donorship to high IQ individuals with a track record of success (hard work, thrift, etc).

Man, so much to say, so little time.
