Argues that present informal policies concerning AID are the result of legal pitfalls and failure to pay sufficient attention to best interests of children. Refers to Curie-Cohen's research. Notes that AID is used for eugenic purposes thus it is generally the best interest of the couple or parent that is the main concern. He claims that doctors are not competent to screen recipients. On donor selction, he argues for use of term sperm vendor. Critical of doctor's eugenic choice of students as donors and mentions doctors' lack of specific training in even simple genetics. Discusses the irrelevance of wife of sperm donor signing consent form and how it is important to keep records.
Makes six recommendations for organizing practice of AID and appeals for an end to legal concerns about uniform legislation and a beginning to development of professional standards, where self-protection gives way to concern for the child.11. Annesse BK, Danze HL. The Fertility Awareness Book. .

Of 711 physicians likely to perform DI surveyed, 471 responded, of whom 379 reported that they performed DI. They accounted for 3576 births in 1977. Gives percentage who use DI to prevent genetic defect transmission and to help single women. Most donors university students and screening for genetic disease superficial. Matching carried out. Number of cycles, use of multiple donors for one recipient. Only 37% kept records on children, and 30 on donors. Identity of donors closely guarded to ensure privacy and avoid legal complications.

Concludes that in some communities the use of DI would actually reduce inbreeding because of the extent to which members of the community are already engaged in mating with close relatives - the logic is that if someone marries a cousin who is not actually a full cousin because he/she is DI offspring, this reduces the consanguinity.
