Forum Post: 'Personhood' Rights For Sperm

The Wilmington City Council has a message for men -- sperm are people, too.

The council for Delaware's largest city passed a resolution by an 8-4 vote Thursday calling on the Delaware legislature, other state legislatures and the U.S. Congress to pass laws granting "personhood" rights to eggs and sperm.

hehehehe ;)

Inanity. But, I will say they have more of a right to personhood than corporations!

And, the fact that these legislators are focusing on such b.s. is just evidence for why they should all be impeached, recalled, voted out of office, whatever it takes to remove them.

So, we can declare them as dependents on our 1040.

In retrospect, it is at most 1 unique person.... after all the sperm with the y chromosome are just you, and the sperm with the x chromosome are you with a little extra code...

They do travel in an amazingly large group does that count?

[-] 1 points by Nevada1 (5843) 12 years ago

Hi DKA, If they travel outside the country, they will have to get a passport. They can apply for it at a US Post Office. On another issue, please see my new HR 1084 post. Best Regards, Nevada

quote ---> "[E]ach 'egg person' and each 'sperm person' should be deemed equal in the eyes of the government and be subject to the same laws and regulations as any other dependent minor and be protected against abuse, neglect or abandonment by the parent or guardian," says the resolution. "[L]aws should be enacted by all legislative bodies in the United States to promote equal representation, and should potentially include laws in defense of 'personhood,' forbidding every man from destroying his semen."
