[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually PP, thank you. I just realized that not only would very few women be surrogates, but it would be every likely that it isn't their choice. My guess is that most Indian surrogates are forced by their husbands or whomever to do so in order to make that person money. [/quote]

Guess away. As usual, DCUM half-wits deciding they know something based on nothing other than speculation.

Tell me, which regulations control surrogacy in Indian? When surrogates are selected, what's in the psychological portion of the evaluation? Do you have reason to believe it is ineffective at screening for these types of issues? Or, do you think Indian mental health professionals are unaware that some women may face these pressures? Also, most women enter into surrogacy because they feel compassion for the infertile couple. That is true in India as well as in the US. Do you think that Indian surros can't have compassion? Further, some Indian fertility clinics have been at the forefront of the fight for GLBT rights in that country (surrogacy is very important, especially for gay men who want families) and have also fought against the practices of femicide and gender selection. Do you know which clinics these are? There are certain best practices to minimize the likelihood of exploitation. Do you know what these are?

Look, no one is going to say that in a country as big as India, that has certain general cultural norms and is at a certain stage of development, that exploitation isn't part of the picture. That would just be stupid. But to "guess" that the entire country and every person, every doctor, and every surro in it all act and think and behave in the same way is equally stupid.

Come back to the thread when you move from guessing to knowing. [/quote]
