[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People are so effing crazy, as evidenced by this thread.

As others have said, if the surrogate is willing and not coerced and you compensate well then of course this is ethical. People die doing construction work all the time but no one questions the ethics of hiring a crew to build you something.

If everyone involved has free will and is being treated well, then all the consenting adults are making their own choices and everything is, IMO, fully ethical. [/quote]

Then why can't you buy organs from people? It's actually less risky to have part of your liver removed or a kidney fully removed than pregnancy and childbirth. Answer: it's exploitation of the bodies of other humans. We can't use the poor for organ farms and we shouldn't use them as womb rentals.

And paying a lot does not equal making things ethically OK. I have a bunch of money so I want to shoot endangered animals. Is that morally OK if I pay the animals' owners well?[/quote]

So you’re just against paid surrogacy, full-stop. If it’s immoral for OP than it’s immoral for cancer survivors who had hysterectomies, right?  It’s just easier for you to take potshots at women who want surrogates for non-medical reasons. [/quote]
