The Legal Flaws Of The Sperm Kings

Here are the top three legal problems with these sorts of arrangements.

Excerpt - “A few days ago, the New York Times published this excellent piece on the pandemic-induced shortage of sperm and the rise of “sperm kings” — men putting themselves out there, way out there, through the internet and other means, to widely offer their sperm to those looking to conceive. One of the sperm kings featured in the article was a guest on the podcast I co-host, back in 2019. Although the article didn’t mention it, I will go ahead and throw out there that “Kyle Gordy” is not the gentleman’s real name. (There was some skepticism as to the truth of his story, as well as his intentions, and in a rare request for a guest on the podcast, he was asked to undergo a background check. Good news. No criminal record to speak of, ladies.)”
