00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,480

38
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, to be to Yeah, to be frank. These two

39
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 3: people got in touch with me. I want to say

40
00:01:58,440 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 3: their names. I'm not sure if they're comfortable with me

41
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 3: using Yeah, that's but they said, yeah, we would like

42
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 3: your your genes, which I was pretty shocked at first,

43
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 3: because why the hell would you want my genes?

44
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 4: Honestly, that's what I think.

45
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, But then I got thinking like, if you do

46
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,040
Speaker 3: want it, then maybe I should do this.

47
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,519
Speaker 2: It's the highest compliment. It is the highest of compliments. Yeah.

48
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 4: No, yeah, I think.

49
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 2: The question I've got to have for you though, and

50
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 2: I suppose I really want to open the phone lines.

51
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 2: By the way, third one and six five, because whilst

52
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:24,800
Speaker 2: we are having a bit of a laugh about this,

53
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 2: you and I both know that this is something that

54
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: people do, like, yeah, one hundred percent, like this is

55
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: this is a genuine offer from these two people that

56
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: they want this from you. I would love to hear

57
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: from some other people who have done it, who have

58
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 2: had offers, or who are approaching maybe you are a

59
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 2: couple who needs burm off somebody else. How you know,

60
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 2: how do you go about it? Is it a scary

61
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: step to ask somebody? I mean I think you just

62
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: they just slipped into your DMS like most people, there's days.

63
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, when she said I want your thought it was

64
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 3: about something different. But then obviously I read on and

65
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,119
Speaker 3: then it made more sense to me. But yeah, because

66
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 3: one concern that I've got about this whole thing is

67
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 3: what does happen like later in life?

68
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 4: Like, you know, what if I that's the big thing

69
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:13,120
Speaker 4: for me.

70
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 3: But in twenty years time, if I don't have kids,

71
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 3: that's a that's a good chance I won't have kids.

72
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 4: I'm with someone at the moment and it's not looking

73
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 4: great to be honest.

74
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, in twenty years, if I go, I want to

75
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 3: meet that kid. I know there's a kid that is

76
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 3: half of me out there. Yeah, what happens? What happens there,

77
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 3: you know.

78
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 2: And I don't know the legalities around that. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

79
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 2: you know, that's obviously a huge part of the discussion

80
00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,839
Speaker 2: that you have. And my question for you, I'm personally

81
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 2: I feel like it's got to be one way or

82
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 2: the other, like you're either a big part of their

83
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 2: life or you're not a part of their life. You

84
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: could just like, you know, ring the doorbell one day

85
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 2: with a cheesecake and go, hey, no, Daddy's here. No,

86
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 2: would you like a slice? No, I don't think it

87
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: works like that.

88
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 4: And they were received.

89
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 2: No the Y Junior, Well, no exactly, they're not going

90
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 2: to call it Woody Jr. And they might call it something,

91
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 2: you know, a name that you hate. They might not

92
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 2: calling it I don't know, well insert name there. But

93
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, that's something that you sort of have

94
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 2: to figure out in your own head before you go

95
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 2: ahead and do it. Is would you be able to live?

96
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 2: I would find this hard knowing that you've got a

97
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 2: kid somewhere, particularly when you haven't got your own kid.

98
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 4: If that does happen, and that is a possibility.

99
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 2: All right, Well, look, let's take some calls on this.

100
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 2: Thirty one to six to five. You don't have to

101
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 2: have done the process obviously. I just want to ask people,

102
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 2: should what do you do it?

103
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 4: What do you think?

104
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 2: He's obviously tossing up with this decision right now.

105
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,280
Speaker 4: I'd be really interested to hear some views here.

106
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, lend us your voice, help us make a decision.

107
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: I say us, it's you.

108
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,360
Speaker 4: We're in this together. No we're not, No we are, No,

109
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 4: we are.

110
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: Now. You revealed this yesterday on Will and Woody.

111
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 3: So women got in touch with me recently and they

112
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 3: want my.

113
00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a really beautiful it's a really, it's a

115
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 3: really it's a beautiful couple, you know.

116
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 6: And.

117
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 2: Outrageous stuff, outrageous stuff. So look, you and I have

118
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 2: discussed this a little bit. Let's I want to hear

119
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 2: from a couple of people here because we've we've thrashed

120
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 2: it out quite a bit.

121
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'm very much on the fence. Should would

122
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 4: he do this? Should?

123
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: Should he be a sperm donor for two women who

124
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 2: don't know? They seem lovely but you don't know. And yeah,

125
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 2: we're just kind of getting some advice from you guys.

126
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,719
Speaker 2: Will carry, who's called carry? What do you reckon?

127
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 5: I think you should go for it, definitely. I mean

128
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 5: it's a big commitment. I'm a single woman. My partner

129
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:50,840
Speaker 5: separated from me after four months of trying, and so

130
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 5: I was thirty eight and thinking what am I.

131
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:54,359
Speaker 1: Going to do?

132
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:59,400
Speaker 5: So so I chose a donor through an IVF program. Yeah,

133
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,359
Speaker 5: and I don't know the guy. I've just got like

134
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 5: a list of all his watch I guess information And.

135
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,760
Speaker 2: Sorry, Kerry, is that personality traits or is that just

136
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 2: physical attributes?

137
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:20,800
Speaker 5: It's everything physical, personality, medical history about him and his

138
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 5: family members, So it's really quite involved. But yeah, I

139
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 5: mean I'm seven months pregnant now and if I hadn't

140
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 5: had a donor, I would have missed out.

141
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 3: And that's positive side is that this this really great

142
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,120
Speaker 3: couple's got in touch with me and I want to

143
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 3: give them the joy.

144
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 4: Oh God of a child. But carry me. I think

145
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 4: you're a selfish pig if you don't do it. Oh

146
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:44,200
Speaker 4: hang on, will.

147
00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 3: Sorry?

148
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 4: Can I just go back to Kerry real quick? Carry?

149
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 4: Can I ask you what what what are the I

150
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:50,800
Speaker 4: don't want.

151
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 3: To say legalities? But will will the donor ever meet

152
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 3: the child? Or Oh that's just off the cards and

153
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 3: you'll never know who the.

154
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 5: Who the dad was well for me because it's an

155
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:04,559
Speaker 5: Australian donor. Legally you have to say yes to meeting,

156
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 5: to having I guess the child having access to you

157
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 5: once they turn eighteen. But legally you have no obligation.

158
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 5: You're not financially involved, you're not considered the father, you're

159
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 5: just computed the donor. So yeah, you don't you can

160
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 5: meet them, but you don't have to be involved in

161
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 5: their life by any any means.

162
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, thanks so much, Kerry, Thank you Kerry.

163
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 2: So he could potentially or she could potentially tap you

164
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 2: on the shoulder at a night club at two o'clock

165
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 2: in the morning and say Dad.

166
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 3: Yes, but then can't say can I have fifty bucks?

167
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:44,679
Speaker 4: Which is a wind. We've got Nikki. We've got Nikki

168
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 4: here on thirteen one o six five.

169
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 3: Nikki, what do you think I do think he should

170
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 3: do it?

171
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 2: Why?

172
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 4: Nikki?

173
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: I don't believe he should do it.

174
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 5: Although it's a beautiful gesture and a transaction.

175
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,080
Speaker 1: What happens if he gets.

176
00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 5: Up partner later in life and make it really upset

177
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 5: that he's already fathered.

178
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 3: Someone as in my life, as in my future partner

179
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 3: has an issue that.

180
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I hadn't thought about that, would you?

181
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 5: Would you?

182
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I think it would cause issues.

183
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 4: So, Nikki, so if you and I just don't know

184
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 4: the kettle of fishing.

185
00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 3: Hypothetical here, Nikki, you and I hook up later in

186
00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 3: the life and things are going really well, and then

187
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,440
Speaker 3: I say to you, I probably should let you know

188
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 3: there's a I've donated my sperm to a couple that'd

189
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 3: be a problem.

190
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 5: I think that would upset me.

191
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 4: Okay, really interesting to upset me. It's good perspective. Appreciate it, Mate,

192
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 4: really interesting think about that. I hadn't thought about it.

193
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 3: I also hadn't speend to my parents at this stage,

194
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 3: which is another.

195
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 4: Little cookie for talk to your parents about it. No,

196
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 4: I would want to talk to my parents about it.

197
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 2: Well, just because just to reassure your dad that there's

198
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 2: not going to be an eighteen year old asking for fifty.

199
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 4: Exactly how we got Peter here, Peter, I'm reading it.

200
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:56,839
Speaker 4: You've donated just sperm before.

201
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 2: I have.

202
00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:04,839
Speaker 1: Yes, my my husband's childhood friend and her partner of

203
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:09,240
Speaker 1: that time wanted a child. So yeah, they approached us,

204
00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:13,119
Speaker 1: and yeah, I did the donating.

205
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,679
Speaker 2: So how do you feel about it, Peter, I was, I'm.

206
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: Fine with it being gay. I was already resigned to

207
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 1: never having children, So having a child in another state,

208
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: even that far away, is more than I ever thought

209
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: I would have. So for me, it's more than I

210
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 1: thought I was ever going to get.

211
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 4: And have you met the child in the child's life,

212
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 4: end the kid life?

213
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 1: I've only met him twice in person, so, as I said,

214
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 1: they're all the way down in Tasmania. I'm up in Sydney,

215
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: so yeah, so but yeah, I don't. I'm not a

216
00:09:55,480 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: parent of any kind to him, so I'm just as

217
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:01,359
Speaker 1: the file.

218
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: It knows you as the father without necessarily seeing you

219
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 2: as a parent.

220
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 5: Yeah you do.

221
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 2: You do you feel any sense of like loss or

222
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 2: you know, need to be a father figure to him?

223
00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 3: Though?

224
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 6: Better not?

225
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:23,280
Speaker 1: Not really no, because I mean I wasn't there at

226
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 1: the birth or anything like that, so I wasn't involved

227
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 1: in any of that. So I wasn't even really there

228
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: at the conception.

229
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 2: So well, you'd hope not.

230
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:37,200
