No such minimum exists, since lesbians can have gay sperm donors!

Why does the donor need to be gay?

They don't. The question was about the minimum number of straight people.

Humans turn out to be really good at making more humans. We don't have any kind of shortage of human-making. Any time anyone says something that ends with "... and then, the humans would stop making more humans!" they're basically saying "I AM A CLOWN BUTT, BUH BUH BUH!"

In exceptional cases where psychotic human dictators have prevented normal reproduction (see: 20th century China) there are, fortunately, other repositories of humans who have maintained normal reproduction. When China's population crashes, it can be replenished from other parts ot the planet.

I don't think that's a viable option for China. Sure they can take in people from other parts but the amount of people needed would be extraordinary.

And I'm gonna assume that at some stage in the future other parts of the world will have the same problem China, Japan, USA, Europe etc have now.

Oh, to be clear, I expect the current China political regime to collapse horribly following the population crash it created.

Also there are scientific ways to create a child using the DNA from the eggs of two lesbians. It's kind of a new technology but pretty interesting.

The egg donors don't have to be lesbians but often are, I think.
