It also says fewer women than ever are making babies with sperm donors, so I'm not sure why it's such a big deal.

I still don't understand how there could be a shortage

men don't want to be paid to masturbate?

it isn't that, but the deal is, you have to abstain from orgasm for a week before you can donate.. and i don't think the pleasure you abstain from is worth the $50 (i don't know the price) per cup you can donate

In England, the law changed and it gave rights to children who are a product of a sperm donor, to allow them to trace their biological father.  Before then, it was always confidential.  And since that law was changed, less people have come forward to donate, in fear of being looked up 18 years from now, or being pressed for child support
