Donating Eggs

skull_bearerIn the UK, you cannot be paid more than £250 for donating eggs, however, this might be about to change. Now personally, I don't see a problem with this, it's a valuable commodity, so its only fair to be paid well for them. In fact, it got me thinking about doing it. Frankly, the doctors could cut out my ovaries and I wouldn't care. Babies = not for me. In fact; babies = a tasty, nutritious food source. All this does is cut down the number of eggs I have so I'm one step closer to menopause. Menopause = no more preiods. I will put up with ANY number of hot flashes to have that.
My one moral objection would that there are way too many people in the world already, so I shouldn't be contributing to any more, but hey, in the 'states you can get paid up to $10,000 for eggs. £7,500 in UK pounds. That's a year's rent! If we go the same way, then Morals = out of window.
Unfortunately, then I thought: sooo, that would mean there's be someone out there with your genes, it doesn't matter if you'd never see them, you would still have.... A CHILD!
NOOOOOOOO!!!!
So, yeah. No. That's just too fucking disturbing, okay? There's only one of me, will only ever be one of me. MY GENES ARE MINE ALONE!
