When people choose who they want to date, f[inks], spend the rest of their life with, etc., race factors into many people's decision, consciously or subconsciously. It could be argued that this is racist, but it happens and is impossible to entirely prevent. As long as choosing a sperm donor is chosen similarly to choosing a partner, it would be illogical to ban it.

I'm against having children in today's day and age. Earth is already overpopulated, and people who want children can adopt (this is a preferable alternative regardless).

Not sure if I buy this, but even if it's true, we have a way out:



The final frontier.
Do you really have Ayn Rand in your sig and you reference a series in which everything is free and hunger has been wiped out? lol

Star Trek is the show depicting an all-progressive utopia, yet a black woman still answers the phone.

To be fair, I think the creator of Star Trek wanted a more progressive show, but the executives wouldn't let him be as all-out progressive as he wanted. And it still broke barriers for its time.

I was mostly joking. Tongue Yeah, it's interesting that something considered very forward thinking for its time would be criticized today (Imagine a feminist take on Kirk's constant pursuit of women, for instance).
