Al Reuters says lesbians 4 times more likely to have children than gay men.
2004-05-27
edited to emphasize the money quote:
"I wouldn’t call it a baby boom exactly. It has been steadily growing all along," said Aimee Gelnaw, a lesbian mother of two and executive director of the coalition. Using artificial insemination to get pregnant, lesbians are four times more likely to have children than gay men. "Same-sex couples and single women are 40 percent of our business, and it is the fastest-growing segment," said Marla Eby, vice president of marketing at California Cryobank Inc., Los Angeles, which ships semen nationwide.
Biology isn’t my field, but being the father of three possibly entitles me to claim some sort of first hand knowledge. I would say that lesbians have an infinitely greater chance than any man, gay or otherwise, of having children. As for artificial insemination of gay men, as the quote seems to suggest, we might be better off not knowing.

A while back, we had a story about a leaked memo from Reuters management that expressed alarm over the high incidence of on-the-job drunkenness at the news agency. Is this another bit of evidence?
