"Spermshow" to air on Dutch TV (again)

A new commercial Dutch TV station plans to air a show called “I want your child and nothing else” in which a single, childless woman gets to choose a sperm donor with which to, uh, generate a human being.

The program is initially a one-off that will be aired on August 23 with viewers allowed to vote on whether it should stay on the air… The idea for the “Spermshow", as Dutch media are calling it, was already launched once in 2001 but caused a storm of protest in the Netherlands even leading to questions in Parliament…
