America has a Black sperm donor shortage. Black women are paying the price

The thread title is the WaPo headline, verbatim
Who knew that sperm banks are racist?

Who knew that sperm banks are racist?
quote:
Every night a little after 1 a.m., following her shift as a guard at a women’s prison, Reese Brooks would open her laptop, a second laptop, then her phone and a tablet, and begin scouring websites for sperm banks, opening dozens of tabs.
The websites offered hundreds of potential sperm donors, allowing Brooks to select for movie-star looks, height and hobbies, but when she filtered for Black or African American donors, her options swiftly dwindled.
The cryobanks gave Brooks a chance at motherhood, but they couldn’t provide what she wanted: a Black sperm donor who could give her a child that looked like her and shared her culture.
“I’d say I spent 40 hours a week looking for a donor. All together I think I searched more than 800 hours,” Brooks said. But when it came to a Black donor, she said, the choices were slim to none.
Cryobanks reported that the number of Black women seeking their services to conceive rose sharply during the pandemic after increasing steadily over the years. Black women between the ages of 35 and 45 are far more likely to remain unmarried than women from other racial groups, according to the latest Census data, with 44 percent of non-Hispanic Black women unmarried, compared to 16 percent of White women. Yet Black sperm donors represent just a fraction of available supply — less than 2 percent at the country’s four largest sperm banks, according to an analysis by The Washington Post.

You'd think they'd go with White.
Get some of that privilege I've been hearing about.

How hideous, or antisocial do you have to be to not just find a dating site?

This is how little the Washington Post thinks of their readers. That they would believe this kind of swill in the modern era

Damn! She had her own little sperm war room setup. Probably even had a red phone for the land line in case someone shot a load that met her requirements.

If she wants a black sperm donor, I think she needs to try Tinder instead. Or whatever the black equivalent is.

Should be placed at the top of the list of person who does not deserve a child.

Well I'll be damned. Doesn't this mean that all those people who said they would choose to be white when posed that asinine question aren't doing so because white people are privileged, or even because they are racist, but because they would choose the be the color that they already are? Surely not.

I promise you there is NO shortage of black sperm donors. They just aren't donating at the sperm bank.
In fact, they are WAY too many black sperm donors in the black community. Need fewer sperm donors and more actual fathers.
