PRAIRIE VILLAGE, Kan. (AP) — David Titterington had a sense of what his childhood friend would ask him when she led him into a photo booth at a mutual friend’s wedding roughly a decade ago. As the countdown for the second photo ticked, Jen Wilson popped the question: Will you be my sperm donor?
“Of course I said yes,” Titterington said. “I mean, who would have guessed that, being a gay man, I would have this opportunity to have biological children and also be part of their lives?”
On Father’s Day, Kansas residents Jen and Whitney Wilson will pack up their three children — ages 9, 7 and 3 — and head to picnic at Titterington’s Missouri house to celebrate the man who helped make their family possible. Like other LGBTQ+ couples, they and their sperm donor have created their own traditions around Father’s Day.
“We just have decided to celebrate him,” said Jen Wilson, who works as the executive director of the LGBTQ+ advocacy group Modern Family Alliance.
For LGBTQ+ people, single-parent households, other nontraditional families or those with strained family relationships, Father’s Day and Mother’s Day can be painful and confusing. Events featuring those holidays at school can make some children feel isolated. Jen Wilson said many schools are working toward being more inclusive, such as turning events like “Donuts with Dads” to “Donuts with Grown-Ups.”
Jen Wilson and Titterington have been friends since childhood. When Jen Wilson and her wife began planning for a family, Titterington tossed out the idea of being a sperm donor, and he was overjoyed when the couple later made the ask official.
“There’s so many ways to be a father,” Titterington said. “We get to celebrate all kinds of fathers on Father’s Day.”

The propaganda is not subtle.
Pass
Yep, can’t have donuts with dads, because we can’t suggest or imply that children have a father. We have to be inclusive by excluding references to mothers and fathers.
Get back in the closet, perverts, and leave the children alone.
The lesbos have a free baby sitter until the sperm is 18. And source of $$$ for the sperm. While they pretend they are mommies or whatever.
Kansas City Faggots?
“What in the wide, wide world o’ sports is a goin’ on here?”
What a day for AP to crap on fathers.
Throw up time.....celebrating an abomination? YUK
The AP and LGBTQ+ community completely destroying the meaning of father’s day.
A sperm donor is not a father unless he’s going to be acting like a father in the traditional sense of fatherhood, being involved in the kids life from birth to adulthood and beyond.
After a quick look at the video in the article, I suspect IVF. Can’t imagine anyone wanting to get physical with either of those two. ;-)
I’ll bet they’re using plenty of K-Y Jelly celebrating “Father’s” Day.
The poor kids have a gay sperm donor to celebrate fathers day with. I’m sure they will grow up healthy with two lesbians and a gay sperm donor. They won’t be confused at all by their mother’s hate for straight men. My lesbian neighbors adopted a young girl who was abused by her birth mother. They ended up abusing the poor girl too. It was a criminal act when the state gave custody to the two lesbians. They were both miserable man haters. I think they became lesbians because no man who wasn’t blind and deaf would want to be with them.
oops, didn’t wait for the video to load. Yeah, I can see how they might have some trouble attracting normal guys.
I’ve read some places won’t let Christian couples to have adoption children because of their “hate values”. What an upside down world we live in. As in was in the days of Noah . . .
How sweet. Are there Hallmark cards you can buy for your "sperm donor"?

Coming soon: "Donuts with Drag Queens."
