The rhetoric around gamete donation is all about making ‘dreams come true’ and giving this ‘gift’ of life to people. And because it is a gift that grants dreams if you just rub hard enough, donating gametes must indeed be an act of altruism.

Really the entire sperm donation business depends on the prerequisite of life being good.

It is a morally agreeable thing to grant life.

The preconception seems to be that everyone will come out of the womb fucking bursting with gratitude.

I saw a dystopian sci-fi film many years ago in which the protagonist suffers such existential dread in this void of meaninglessness that she decides to have a child in order to give her life purpose. And she suffers such existential dread in this void of meaninglessness that she decides to have a child in order to give her life purpose. And she suffers such existential dread in this void of meaninglessness that she decides to have a child in order to give her life purpose. And she suffers such existential dread in this void of meaninglessness that she decides to have a child in order to give her life purpose. And she suffers such existential dread in this void of meaninglessness that she decides to have a child in order to give her life purpose. And she suffers such existential dread in this void of meaninglessness that she decides to have a child in order to give her life purpose. And she suffers such existential dread in this void of meaninglessness that she decides to have a child in order to give her life purpose.
