On Parenthood
I think there will be less street children, when ovaries and testicles or vaginas or penises can only be acquired when you've reached a certain maturity and sense or responsibility
Scene from Department of Human Resources, Reproductive Division....
Young bride: Excuse me, we are interested to acquire a pair of your high quality genitals. You see, me and my husband can't wait to start a family..
Sales Clerk: Very well, ma'am. If you can just fill out this form and hand me the following documents. I can prepare your genitals in 6 months or so.
Young groom: 6 months??!! My, that's way too long! Can't you guys make it faster?
Sales Clerk: I'm sorry sir but you see, we have a long list of applicants and we usually alot a minimum of 6 months to determine if the applicants are really capable of rearing a child.
Young groom: Oh but we are?!! If you can look at my Income Tax Return, you will see that I'm earning enough to give even a dozens of kids a decent future. My wife comes from a good family as well, so there won't really be a problem about financing a kid.
Sales Clerk: I can see that you are really earning well, sir. That's good for you. But you see sir, financial capacity is just one factor, we, in this department, considers. There's emotional stability, parental instincts, commitment issues and loyalty to spouse factors. We don't just give genitals to rich couples. That wouldn't be fair.
Young bride: That's an insane rule! Look at them! (Pointing to a low class couple in the claim window) How can you give a a kid to those two. Can't you see what they are wearing? They aren't even signature clothes and look at their shoes.It's SO yesterday.
Sales Clerk: Ma'am that couple may not be a sight to see for you, but those couple have been happily married for 9 years. The wife works as a teacher and the man runs a small bakery in this town. The two has been volunteering their free time to help kids with special needs in one of the shelter for kids in the next town. And they waited for nine long years to save up for a kid and to make sure that he will have a good education and a good home. Now, if you think that their worn out clothes is a liability, then I guess I just have to tell you to come back here when you've finally seen things in a different light...
The young couple went home with the new bride still without an ovary and the new groom still without some balls.

The last words made me laugh. It would be sweet if this situation were real so we won't have reality TV shows about couples with too many kids that they are clearly not capable of raising - emotionally.
Which reminds me of a comedy radio show I heard a few months back. That, instead of pharmaceuticals making pills that increase the libido, they should make something that will make the man's you know what to taste more like chocolate.
