Well I tried to give blood; I had a month to myself and I was bored, also it was an easy way to find out my blood type. Unfortunately I don't have the correct vein setup in my arms and therefore couldn't safely donate.

I wouldn't know how to donate bone marrow or where to go to get it done.

Organ donation I honestly do not know what my stand is on it, I've considered it many times but never come to a conclusion.

I'm an organ donor (don't really need them after death), and I regularly donate blood (The blood bank people really like me for being O+), in fact I'm due in tomorrow...

I don't know... it would be unfortunate if, after all of my organs have been removed, it turns out that I need them as some arbitrary token to whichever god turns out existing, so it'll let me into the afterlife.
Blood, though? Sure, why not. This theoretical dickhead god (Named, tentatively, Phallord) obviously doesn't mind blood loss- cut me and I bleed, and all that.

I've donated blood 2 times now, and I plan on doing it regularly. If I remember correctly, I'm a registered organ donor in 2 countries, the US and Costa Rica, so if I kick the bucket, well you get the idea.

I would give blood but I'm not sure I'm permitted in my country because of my sexuality.

I am an organ doner after death though

I think I'm old enough donate blood, but I'm pretty sure my parents would'nt let me. Im positive to donate one of my organs in time aswell.

Blood? yes, sometimes.
Organs? never, I would like my body to stay complete after my death.

Well, unless you are going to freeze it and store it a vacuum it won't be complete for long. Why not benefit society in death too?

I give blood. It makes me terrified because I have a phobia of needles (I was infected after I tripped and fell on an abandoned needle once, very very ill from it), but yeah. No sense being a pussy over irrational fears. Rational fears, now, those I will allow myself to be intimidated by.

One time I was too unhealthy to give blood, having lived on ketchup for three weeks. Other than that, it's worth it just for the high - and have a drink a while afterwards! Just a pint'll blow you away xD Disclaimer: Do not drink and donate blood. It is bad and full of dead.

I have put off donating my organs because I hate thinking about death. I'll get round to it some time this year.

I'll donor my organs after I die, because there's no point in letting them rot somewhere if they can be used to save lifes and I don't believe in an afterlife. Maybe I'll also give the rest of my body to a university or something like that.
I have and will never donate blood though, because - and this may sound stupid - they test whether you have hiv or not and if I was infected I really wouldn't want to know it. I mean the risk of me being infected is extremly small but you never know, right, and I don't want to risk ruining my life.

I went to the hospital to find out if I could give blood. Apparently they don't accept people who have been smoking pot for the last year. Oh well, I can always use my blood for myself. I am an organ donor though. When I die, spare parts are on me (quite literally).

I can't donate blood because I don't weigh enough and I've had sex with other men. I'm not sure if I checked the organ donation thing on my license when I went, I'm going to make sure when I get my license renewed in a little under a year.

I'm signed up to donate organs after I die. I'm not going to need them so eh, why not benefit others?

Blood on the other hand, I've never given and probably won't in the near future. I had blood taken for a test once and the whole experience freaked me out for some reason, so the thought of going through it again gives me the shivers. Selfish, I know, but they can drain me after death too if they want xD

They can have all my organs, but i want to remain seemingly untouched on the outside, so everything but eyes. I like eyes anyway. I see them as a window to the soul. You never see more into a person than when you look into eachothers eyes. They can take everything else though. i dont see why not.
