[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does she need to use a surrogate??  [/quote]

She didn't want to ruin her figure, obviously.[/quote]

Agree, and it’s so disgusting to me. A surrogate should only be used in extreme circumstances where a woman cannot get pregnant or it’s dangerous to carry a baby. [/quote]

I am not particularly interested in the family -- other than to find the whole thing about them kind of fascinating -- but, who are you to decide this? I am SO TIRED of women's [b]healthcare choices [/b]being policed by the morality police. Unless g-d whispers in your ear -- in which case you are not well -- you don't have special knowledge of what's right and wrong for someone else. [/quote]

outsourcing pregnancy is now a healthcare choice?[/quote]

Yes.  My body, my choice.  If I choose not to carry a baby for whatever reason, then yes.  If I choose to use my eggs and someone else's sperm in another consenting adult's uterus, yes.  I don't understand how this is a large leap from the abortion debate.[/quote]
+1. No one on this thread knows anything about Khloe's health and her reasoning behind making this decision, nor her surrogate's reasons for deciding to carry the baby. And it doesn't matter. I find it way more disturbing how many (usually white UMC) women are ready to jump in and patronize other women who choose to carry a pregnancy for another woman by [b]assuming they're being exploited[/b] and are too stupid to make their own choices about what they do with their own bodies. The whole thing smacks of Anthony Kennedy's musings about how abortion should be made illegal because "the woman might regret it someday." Knock it off, lady. [/quote]

They are being exploited, but so is anyone who takes a dangerous job for the money.  That's capitalism baby[/quote]

Back in late 2003/2004, as a civilian federal employee, I took a detail to work in Iraq because it paid a LOT of money.  I exploited that opportunity but, while it was dangerous, the federal government was not exploiting me.

In the same sense, an appropriately compensated surrogate is also exploiting an opportunity.  She is not, necessarily, being exploited herself.

Capitalism isn't necessarily the dirty word you think it is.  [/quote]
