Maybe Being a Lesbian is Man Enough

From Britain:

Fertility doctors may no longer be required to consider the welfare of the child when carrying out in vitro fertilisation.

Regulations requiring clinicians to take into account "the need of the child for a father" could be scrapped, making it easier for lesbian couples and single women to have IVF babies.

Section 13(5) of the Human Fertilisation Act 1990 states: "a woman shall not be provided with treatment services unless account has been taken of the welfare of the child who may be born as a result of the treatment (including the need of that child for a father)".

The HFEA code of practice requires those assessing couples for IVF treatment to take into account the commitment of the parents to raise children, their age and medical histories, their ability to provide a stable environment and the risk to the child of inherited or transmittable diseases and any potential for neglect or abuse.
