Are you my sperm donor?
In the New York Times, an article about Egg and Sperm Banks was published. It spoke about the donors' desire to meet with the children to which they helped make. However, fertility clinics see the childrens information as confidential and will not give it out. The parents arguement is the risk of health complications down the road that could be prevented if they could maintain communication with the children.
This article made me think about society's change in values on reproduction. After World War II, the Baby Boom era began. This was triggered by the large number of men coming back from the war. From 1946 to 1964 the brithrate increased rapidly. Couples were producing children with the idea of fixing the death rate from the war. Today the world is over populated, thus causing couples to not be pressured into producing offspring.

Interesting story I heard from someone else at school, who heard it on VH1, or some crap like that. Some lady that had sexual relations with hip-hop artist Cam'ron asked to keep his condom after a night of intimacy. She then used a turkey baster to take the seman so she could impregnate herself with his child. How this is even possible relevent, you ask? I don't entirely know.

Wait, I got it. In response to your last line, "Today the world is over populated, thus causing couples to not be pressured into producing offspring," only applies to the vast majority, but to some, they feel they have to have a child if the parent is a celebrety and they can con them into paying child support.
That is so what I would do...you know, if I could trick a celebrety into having my kid....
