David Cosby fathered Julie Cryer and Melissa’s children. He doe visit the children, but I don’t think he has asked for legal rights.
Most lesbians choose artificial donor to avoid the whole legal child custody and paternal issues. It can be a hassle. I’m not too sure of the legal ramifications, but I image the sperm donor has to sign away his rights.
A lesbian couple appeared on a talk show about this issue. One person spoke about the "unsanitary: turkey-baster procedure. The mother’s response: “Does your husband boil his penis before inserting it into you?”
I guess I thought the link between the “turkey baster vs. live penis” thing and the prostitute/underage sex thing was obvious. I guess not. Let’s put it this way–assuming missionary position, sex for a woman involves a sweaty grunting guy pumping away on top of you and inside of you. If the female isn’t truly into it and/or is uncomfortable with it…well, you get the picture. I guess that a kind and thoughtful man would be reluctant to subject his sweaty grunting self to someone who may be too immature or desperate to make a good decision. If an adult woman in full possession of her faculties (i.e. not a drug addict or something) chooses to have sex with men in return for payment, then that’s okay with me. I think prostitution should be legalized. But at this point, many/most prostitutes don’t go into prostitution after making a rational cost/benefit analysis.
Duke of Rat–I wasn’t attacking you, as I had assumed that you had had your ignorance fought. But you comment about being “assaulted by a turkey baster” makes me thing you don’t get it at all. How is using a turkey baster for insemination akin to being assaulted? Unless you think every trip to the gynecologist an assault. Perhaps you’re simply not aware of how many things get stuck in our vaginas during a routine gynecological visit. Well, at least 3–speculum, pap test swap, doctor’s fingers. Do you know what they do with a speculum? They stick it in there, and open it up, stretching yoru vagina WIDE open. And then they look around in there! And when you’re pregnant/in labor? Fergit it! You have so many people up your cooter that you lose track of which hand is attached to which person. And I had the unfortunate experience of a vaginal ultrasound once. The technician has to put a dildo-shaped thingie into your vagina and move it all around and in and out and up and down in order to get a good image. Now, that made me feel very violated, but it was necessary. I’d think that an insemination with a turkey baster would be significantly less invasive than all of that.
And surely you understand that for a penis to ejaculate, it usually requires that the man, you know, move it around a bit. Or a lot–especially if the penis in question is attached to a man that understands that the woman attached to the uterus is really very uncomfortable with the whole procedure. I hardly think that a kind man would find the situation erotic. A turkey baster seems like it would be much easier to take.
I am sure that there are some men out there that would really get off on doing the office of a turkey baster for a lesbian mother to be. I would not. I would feel so unwelcome that I would be completely useless, and that’s before taking my vasectomy into consideration. I honestly hope that I am in the majority on this one.
I have this vision. When the kid is four or five, of an age to go rummaging through the kitchen cabinets, he’ll find the turkey baster and because he’s a clever lad, he’ll fill it with water and start spraying it around the kitchen.
One of his moms will come upon this scene and snatch the baster away from him while screaming, “WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOUR FATHER???”
Well, in all those stories you read on the Internet, a man cums gallons and gallons every time. You mean it’s not true? Next thing you know, you’ll be saying that those all-family consensual orgies that have no adverse consequences on the participants are just make-believe.
