[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find the infertility entitlement just plain nuts. Nobody has any obligation to keep DE prices low just so that poorer couples have this option open to them. [/quote]

This. It's some major cognitive dissonance. Society should tilt towards those donating. If they know the value of their eggs, the compensation should match to perceived worth. Until we reach the point where ALL eggs are valued equally, the compensation should naturally differ.

I don't expect to pay the same for a necklace at Macy's if I'm shopping at Tiffany's.

As a black woman with somewhat mixed-valued eggs (light skin, "good" hair, educated, but with weight issues to balance it out) even I can't ignore the market value of the athletic, white, educated materials. Come on! I'd be a great match to any inter-racial couple, but I do carry genes that aren't desirable as well.

A friend was "shopping" for a match to meet her background. She couldn't find anyone, although I believe she settled on a Persian donor. She is a single mother by choice, and would have happily incentivized a donation by a male donor to meet her needs.
