Medical care in pregnancy in the U.S in the states where women might turn to surrogacy for needed income makes it very risky— no one wants to bleed out in a bathroom or die of infection for their job. Similarly IVF is targeted.
There may be an overseas increase. Bear in mind donor eggs are expensive and men without significant means can’t be selective.

It makes no sense. Their DNA is devalued because of the rapid mechanism that expels it? The bias that devalues male dna?
Everything is upside down in this industry. It’s also not fair to men either to have 50 half siblings as off spring.

So no, I don’t think we’ll see a booming surrogate industry.
My dh very much wanted kids. When they arrived, he did all of the overnight duties and also brought them to me to nurse. I'm sorry you don't know any goid men or have close friends who would tell you about their wonderful dhs.
