UK: NHS to fund sperm bank for lesbians: New generation of fatherless families… paid for by YOU. “Heterosexual couples will also be able to benefit, but the move – funded by the Department of Health – is largely designed to meet the increasing demand from thousands of women who want to start a family without having a relationship with a man.”

Isn’t this just an extension of the welfare state’s attempt to replace fathers as a provider? Not only will the state protect women and provide for them and their children through redistribution of taxpayer money, but now it will see to it that they are impregnated in the first place, again using tax dollars.

And how is it in any way in the interest of society actively to encourage and assist in the making of children who are, from the start and by design, without fathers?
