The world's first sperm donor website for lesbian couples received 8,000 registrations within 48 hours of being launched, its founders said yesterday.

ManNotIncluded.com went live in Britain on Monday. By yesterday, 3,000 lesbian couples had signed up and 5,000 men had volunteered to be sperm donors.

Registrations have come from across the world, although the majority of those interested are in Britain. Sperm donations will be dispatched for "home insemination" to those who pass a screening process.
