UK: Woman seeking to cease husbands' sperm donation rights
Article here. Excerpt:
'A British woman is campaigning for the legal right to veto her husband's choice to donate sperm, it has emerged.
The unidentified complainant says her partner volunteered samples of his semen to a registered clinic after becoming stressed by the birth of their child, reported MailOnline.
Disgruntled, the mother-of-one from Surrey has contacted the Human Fertilisation And Embryology Authority, arguing that women across the UK should be able to deny their spouse's free will on the matter - because sperm is a 'marital asset'.
She's wrong.
As a men's rights activist and someone whose mother was a counsellor in Liverpool's British Pregnancy Advisory Service, where I spent considerable time as a boy, I value the importance of choice massively. But it cuts both ways.
The old maxim of 'my body, my choice' is one that applies to both genders, not just women.'
