Sperm donation on the big screen


Three Hollywood blockbuster films are to be released in early 2010, with focusing on the story of women who are approaching the menopause turning to sperm donation in order to become pregnant. In both films the women choose artificial insemination as a method of conception.


The Baster, starring Jennifer Aniston tells the story of a woman in her late 40s who chooses her favourite donor's sperm to inseminate with, only to find out seven years later her best friend swapped the sperm sample and used his own.



Meanwhile in The Back Up Plan, Jennifer Lopez plays the role of a woman who inseminates herself with donor sperm only to meet the man of her dreams the same day.



The Kids are Alright meanwhile, tells the story of sperm donation from the viewpoint of the resulting children. Jullianne Moor stars in this tale whereby the children of same sex parents seek their donor father once they reach adulthood.




While all three films are comedy based, they do highlight the plight of women longing for a baby, and the solution that sperm donation can offer. The subject is set to be brought into the public domain with the release of these films.
