I don't see how one could logically call a sperm or egg a member of our species.

Tim, nor does the combination of the sperm and egg, at least in its earliest stages, suggest a member of this species as well. Its only through the manipulation of the combined genetic material through several stages of embryonic development that something approximating a human begins to appear.
