I'll just leave this here... Am curious what people's thoughts are about it.

Must say the idea of sperm stealing is one I've never heard of until reading this article, and quite frankly the idea grosses me out a LOT! I do empathise with a lot of women as we do have this whole "ticking clock" once we reach our 30s if we don't have children and want them.
It's why I tell men who are dating who are in those ages to bear in mind that if a woman who's that age wants children if you don't want them, or don't want them at that time, then essentially either you change those feelings and have them if she wants them, or you allow her to find someone who does. It's also why I think if men do want children then although they personally don't have a "ticking clock" as such, they should realise that they're probably going to have to find someone who's somewhere in their 30s, if men wait too long it'll be less likely a woman that age would want to date them over men closer to their own age, you're also talking about a larger age gap, which as women live longer than men as it is isn't really ideal for someone to spend your life with.
Saying that though, going behind someone's back and deliberately getting pregnant, even without such sneaky methods I think it extremely unfair. I've seen it happen with girls who are really young, like teens to early 20s, often with unsteady relationships using it as a way to hold onto their boyfriend rather than actually wanting a child. Having children in my opinion isn't something to be taken lightly, and shouldn't be done through control and manipulation.
