Ik hoorde het vandaag een paar keer op de radio, men schijnt er in Engeland over te denken om een televisie programma te maken met als doel het maken van een kindje........
Ik heb het eens opgezocht op internet en dit is wat ik vond, ben ik nou de enige die dit ziekmakend vind, een spelshow die draait om het creeren van leven? Kan er bij mij niet in eigenlijk. Zie hier beneden de tekst:
A televised sperm race? ... Apparently it's one eggcentric idea being kicked around by UK TV execs.
A controversial UK television show could see a thousand men compete for the chance to father a child.
The format for the program is still under discussion, but one idea certain to spark anger is for a televised sperm race.
Make Me a Mum is the brainchild of independent TV company Brighter Pictures - whose parent company Endemol makes Big Brother.
Men who want to father a child will be whittled down during the series, until two candidates are selected to compete against each other.
The childless woman will choose the man she believes makes the best father - judged by sex appeal, personality, wealth and fitness.
A second man will also be selected on the basis of genetic compatibility and the quality of his sperm, according to the TV and radio magazine Broadcast.
The finale of the six-part series could feature a sperm race, thanks to new technology, with viewers watching which of the two finalists' sperm reaches the female's egg first.
A spokesman for the anti-abortion campaigners Life criticised the show, saying it "sounds like prostitution".
The TV company's creative director Remy Blumenfeld told Broadcast magazine: "There's a tremendous amount of science to this show.
"It's completely fascinating. It's much more about the rule of science than the rules of attraction."
