Would you donate Sperm?

I definitely would. It's good bank, my bloodline is passed on, and I don't have to deal with the little shit at all. At the very least, some lucky child will be blessed with my intellect that way.
Especially since, at the rate I'm going, I'm going to die alone.

No - purely because in my country they brought in a law stating that the offspring have a right to be told who their biological father is, and to be given his details. Unsurprisingly, donors in Australia all but ceased overnight, and anyone wanting donations here usually has to source them from overseas. Donating sperm is one thing, but if the offspring are told who you are, it basically becomes 'a decision to have kids'. And who the hell would decide to have kids under those circumstances?
Sure, why not?
getting paid to spread my genetic legacy and fap whilst doing it? Hell, even without cash I'd still do it for the sake of petty fulfillment gained from passing on your genes on account of being an antisocial asshole.

yes, but only if they warned people who wanted it ahead of time that i am very fertile (which i am)
yes i would
i would also like to point out that if you get paid your selling sperm not donating it
but agreeably thats a wierder title 0_0

I researched this topic from a donors point of view extensively. The truth of the matter is that most people are not permitted to donate.
I was fairly close to the point of looking for a donor bank when I found myself in a committed relationship.
I haven't asked my girlfriend how she feels about the topic, and I doubt that I will.
Truth be told, I am a bit hesitant to attempt donation. I fear the possibility of refusal and what it would do to my self confidence. Of course, to be upset about the ridiculous standards set by donor banks would be silly, but.. still.

Just wanted to add a few things, firstly that women can actually donate eggs. It's not often done however, as it's a fairly invasive procedure compared to sperm donation (which should really go without saying). With that in mind I'd probably only be willing to donate eggs if I either met the people whom I was giving the donation to, or if I already know them (for example if a gay couple I was friends with asked for my eggs). Even so, I'd have to really think about it, and whether I wanted any input into the child's life or not. I'd also refuse to actually carry the child, they can have my eggs, but I'm not getting fat and going through the rigors of childbirth only to produce someone else's kid.
Also, I looked at sperm donation in one of my classes a few years ago, and one thing that our readings pointed out was that even if any offspring did not want to find their biological fathers for emotional reasons, many still wanted to for practical ones. Specifically, it's impossible for someone to have a complete medical history, when they know nothing about the person who provided half their DNA. They may have come to terms with the fact that the people who raised them are not their biological parents, but they might still need to know whether they're at risk for certain types of cancer or inheritable diseases. I guess it depends on the screening process at the clinic and the country's laws, whether this is an issue or not.

The way I see it, you wouldn't be a father.
It takes much more then D.N.A. co-relations to be be.
So I wouldn't have a problem with it.

Get paid $30 to jack off into a cup and not have to take care of the resulting child? Sweet!
At least I can say that I've given something more to humanity besides my own shitty music...

So long as I'm not legally responsible in any way for the result, and I'm paid, of course - why not?
Sadly, in Aussie land you can donate but you wont get paid. As much as I'd love to help infertility and whatnot, fuck it. I'm not doing something like that without getting paid while the rest of the world gets paid for it.
Especially in these tough times here. (in my location)
