    The insurance company should tell them the following:
    -they are doing it wrong.
    -their bodies are working as designed.

    Would the insurance company say the same to an infertile heterosexual couple whose body/bodies were working "as designed" - which for some means infertile (PCO, sperm count issues, and other passed down traits that are, sadly, the design for fertility failure)?

    If the insurance company offers artificial fertilization treatment to one (thereby overcoming the "as designed" problem - PCO, low sperm count, etc), then there is a logical argument that they would need to offer the same treatment to overcome for the other.

    If offered to one set, then it follows they have to offer to the other. If not offered to the first, then the argument for the latter is moot.

    No. Not at all. "As designed" a hetero couple can conceive, things just aren't working as they are suppose to.

    "As designed" the gay/lesbian couple could NEVER conceive.

    ^This. You see, what I'm really asking for is for someone to tell the truth rather than another politically correct lie. Political correctness is about controlling thought and this is a prime example. These women want to claim that they are infertile. (They may actually have some legitimate physical issue with their bodies and how they produce eggs, etc., but that is irrelevant as fixing it wouldn't change their situation). Well, their bodies are working as women's are supposed to work and their coverage carries specific terms. Since they refuse to do what they are likely capable of doing to have a child using their own bodies, they are lying and attempting to defraud the insurance company and have others pay for their lifestyle.

    I think that's a failure of logic. You're essentially arguing that because one out of the couple's bodies does not produce sperm, that is the equivelent to a male partner who has a low sperm count. But those aren't equivelents. The reason the two can't have children isn't because of an underlying health issue, unless you consider lgbt a health issue of itself. That's probably not something LGBTs would want to say.

    They would have to prove that they have a physical disease, illness, ailment, disability that causes the infertility.

    The lack of a wang isn't that if you didn't come with one.

    Also, I would think that if you came into this world with a "wang", that you later declined, you shouldn't be able to claim some kind of disability after losing it voluntarily.
