A recent court decision in Kansas found that a man who answered a request on Craigslist to donate sperm to a lesbian couple is, pursuant to Kansas law, the legal father of the child and must pay child support to the child's mother.

Since the parties involved failed to utilize a medical doctor to facilitate the insemination, the law will not ignore his paternity.
Alabama law is analagous (Section 26-17-702). If you are considering sperm donation or using someone else's sperm donation to become pregnant, consult a child support attorney versed in Alabama family law first.
