Sperm bank denies red hair

The world's largest sperm bank Cryos (Denmark) has decided to say "no" to donors with red-headed hair, citing this color of hair being unpopular and very rarely "begged". .

Cryos director, Ole Schou said that in the past few years, the number of sperm donors has increased sharply, so sperm banks also have conditions to be more selective. Due to the "abundant" supply , they have the right to refuse to receive sperm from rare genes, but red hair is one of them.

"Very few people ask to buy this kind of sperm. Ordinary people will not choose red-haired genes, unless their partner has the same hair color. Compared to other hair colors, hung hair is more and more rare . Mr. Schou explained. According to the Director, the only country with strong hair demand is Irish. While in other countries, the sperm is very sluggish, in Ireland, the sperm of the hair-hungry person "runs like a hot dog".

According to the Danish daily Ekstrabladet , Cryos' cold room was full, but the donor waiting list was still around 600 people. Sperm of those with chestnut-colored hair and brown eyes is particularly popular, because its main customers are Spanish, Italian and Greek.

Only Indian sperm is rare, because the law does not allow "exporting" eggs or sperm. For every donor, Cryos will pay them $ 500 and according to statistics, the Bank has sent sperm to more than 65 countries worldwide.
