[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you don’t have any medical reason to do so. I just don’t want to be pregnant again, gain weight and have to try to lose it again. have my body change permanently, give birth etc.

And I can easily afford a surrogate.

Would you do it in my situation?[/quote]

Is it ethical to buy sperm and eggs? I feel like buying the use of a uterus is more ethical than buying someone's genetic material. The surrogate has no genetic connection to the baby, but an egg or sperm donor DOES.

The only reason I wouldn't hire a surrogate is that you can't really control what she does while pregnant. I was a super vigilant while pregnant.  There is no way you can control what a surrogate does, who they sleep with, what they ingest, or expose themselves to.

So what stops you is that you can't control your employee close enough. But yeah tell me again this is not ethically questionable and about power and money imbalances. [/quote]

If that is the issue you are concerned with, maybe you should also be up in arms about professional football. There are MANY industries that control employees for more favorable outcomes. It’s BUSINESS. and these women volunteered to be paid for a service, or frankly, they do it because they don’t mind being pregnant and want to give someone the gift of life.

You seem to have an abundance or moral indignation that you need to unload on someone. Maybe you should check out the circumcision thread…[/quote]
