But is there a catch? You bet!
It seems there aren't enough Australian men donating sperm these days. Sounds like some fertility clinics are concerned that males aren't prepared to give it up so that childless single women and lesbian couples can have children. In 2003 they were advertising in Canadian student magazines.
Even more amusing is the fact that some people in New Zealand think that the sperm of its male citizens belongs to the country; can you imagine telling females that their unfertilized eggs are the property of their respective governments?
From the same article:
"We have such trouble recruiting our donors," said Fertility Associates medical director Mary Birdsall. "The idea of people poaching our donors ... How dare Australia?"
Maybe Australian men have been reading North American newspapers and maybe they've figured out that once you've been identified, it's only a matter of time before you will be paying child-support..
