As someone who has donated sperm, I was a little disconcerted to read Sports fans in Manchester urged to donate sperm. From my experience, the most common traits sought in a sperm donor were high IQs and creativity. Should we really be encouraging football fans to breed?

"Lists of potential victims are traded between fraudsters who are unauthorised" - is that as opposed to all the authorised fraudsters?

"The aim is to generate 1.2 gigawatts (GW) of electricity from the sites off Orkney." Then all they'll need is a Delorean and a Flux Capacitor.

Peter (Monday's letters), the opposite of "femininity" is "masculinity". "Masculinity" and "virility" are not synonymous - a fact all women, and all too few men, realise.
Liz, Belfast

Femininity is already the opposite of another word: masculinity (Monday's letters). And I always thought that muliebrity meant "the state of being a woman". OK, so I didn't always think it; I read it in a Bill Bryson book.
Louise, Botto

Re Quote of the Day: Replica grenades with a number tied to the pin and a sign urging those with complaints to take a number were sometimes found at work.

I completely agree about continuity announcers interrupting programmes (Monday's letters). I feel even more strongly about radio DJs who insist on talking over the beginning and ends of songs. Why can't they just let the song finish before speaking? These people are simply in love with their own voices, I think.

Is it bad of me to have submitted my letter on averages, knowing that someone would try to correct me, followed by someone else trying to correct them, followed by me writing this letter saying I knew that would happen?
