The fact science makes it possible doesn't mean one should do it.
That's pretty hypocritical. Especially coming from this particular forum.

Super sexist.
Not sexist unless mother nature is sexist.
Old men have babies all the time NATURALLY.
Women have babies naturally in their teens, 20s & young 30s.
Some women have babies naturally in their late 30s and early 40s.
Very few women have babies naturally above the age of 40.
Women in their mid 40s through old age need science, often with very cumbersome, in depth, and very unnatural intervention to have babies.
Nature cuts women off from fertility decadss before nature cuts off men from fertility.
It is not sexist to agree that an old woman using science to conceive is exceptionally troubling and wrong.
An old man conceiving naturally with a naturally fertile woman, while gross to many, is not unnatural, troubling or wrong.
One caveat, women in their mid-40s don't always need science. My grandmother had a baby at 47 with no science involved.

Disgusting and selfish. I also wonder how many girls they aborted to get that son.

That article is NOT the whole story.
1. She used donor egg
2. They say she carried and gave birth herself, but that seems crazy to me
3. They had the baby because her husband's father's estate is worth close to $1mil and his siblings are refusing to give him any of the inheritance since he never had children. They had the baby to be able to get his share of the inheritance
4. They says that the inheritance isn't the only reason they wanted the baby, they wanted to become parents, but if this was really true, why didn't they do IVF decades ago?!?!

According to another article, their infertility caused the family feud.
"A person who is infertile is not given a piece of land or any property by his father,β said Bishnoi, explaining that Gill had to fight his father in the courts. βHe won, and then he got this piece of land and he got the money for the treatment.β

Might be donor sperm as well. A 79 year old man probably makes very low quality sperm.

Ridiculous. There are so many moral issues with this, the first being the high likelihood of the child being parentless at a very young age. The life expectancy in India is 66!

And of course it's a son. They all want sons over there in India.

My first thought was "what medical professionals in their right minds would facilitate this?" Then I saw Test Tube Baby Centre and it all made sense.

The article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2016/05/12/after-a-decades-long-wait-for-a-child-a-woman-in-india-finally-gave-birth-but-doctors-say-shes-too-old/?hpid=hp_no-name_no-name%3Ahomepage%2Fstory
1) no way this was with her own eggs, right? I mean that can't be possible.
2) if a family feud distracts you from having kids for 3 decades, maybe it's time to pack it in because that family is drama.
3) while old men have babies all the time, I think the one reason that bothers me less is at least ONE parent is young and will be around in 20 years. These two will be lucky to see their kid get to middle school.
4) but I guess yay? Hmm.
