I agree that pregnancy is significantly more difficult for women than it is for men. No question. There's a reason I said being a sperm donor and not being a father. But this entire argument seems to be about the idea that human reproduction is the highest calling for any individual, and that, with current technology, requires both sperm and eggs. My stance is that "highest calling" is a personal belief and one that others cannot make a value judgment on. I've discussed doctors and medical researchers in other comments because they have a more direct impact on "amount of people alive" by being in those professions than they would by having children, but I wouldn't argue that those are the "highest calling" for individuals either, or that such a thing exists as an objective truth to begin with. I do not think anyone should be reduced to their reproductive functions, regardless of how "wondrously complex" those things are.
