Tried to donate plasma for money

There is a plasma donation place close to where I live that pays you. They told me they couldn’t take me because I’m a gay male. This happened maybe a year ago. I since got an email from GLAAD that they worked to get the time period from sex reduced from a year to three months. I checked with Red Cross and that was the case. I’m a little p’offed because I haven’t had sex since the summer of 2008.

This was back before covid-19.

I tried to sell plasma a few years ago. They wouldn’t take me, due to my meds and diagnosis. At first they told me they just needed a letter from my psychiatrist stating I’m stable, or whatever it was, which I got my psychiatrist to do. They still “permanently deferred” me, regardless of that letter.

So yeah, even if you weren’t a gay male you probably still would not be able to sell your plasma.
