Here's the thing, people are happy to doante their heart but not their brain.

In the UK......

* 63% are comfortable donating a heart.
* 65% are comfortable donating a kidney.
* 7% of adults are comfortable with the idea of brain donation.
* 26% of people are worried about causing distress to their family.

I wonder why.
I did think well when i die i'm going to donate my brain. Then i thought WOAH what if there is some way that they could infiltrate my thoughts and have a scan through my w@nk bank of stored images.

So i join the 93% of people uncomfortable with giving up my brain.

Anyone?????

They can have mine not that much left, and anyway what am I going to use it for anyways one Im dead!!

Fark... I've got 2 brain cells. Ones lost the others out looking for it. If ever Io have an intelligent though it's gonna be lonely

From those I deal with, I think only about 7% of brains would be at all useful for scientific study.
At best.


Things have a habit of being 'just right' huh?

Interesting stats and I might and possibly relate to the 7% . Any stats on Aus or any other communitys?

I've read that the percentages vary enormously from country-to-country because of how the question is worded.

"Tick the box if you do not want to donate your organs"
vs
"Tick the box if you do want to donate your organs"

Seriously. It's called 'framing the question' or 'default behaviour'. You will usually pick whatever is easiest, in this case not ticking the box/doing anything/default.
