High price tags and ugly secrets – how surrogacy preys on poor women :: Catholic News Agency (CNA)

High price tags and ugly secrets – how surrogacy preys on poor women :: Catholic News Agency (CNA)



Why isn't this slavery?



When "breeding slaves" from the pre-civil war era is mentioned we shake our heads and tsk at our ancestors.



Why isn't this the same thing?



It is trafficking in human bodies; the surrogates reproductive organs and the whole baby.



If it's illegal to sell your own kidney, why is it legal to sell your womb?

If it's illegal to sell your gardner, why is it legal to sell your baby?

If it's illegal to sell your own body for the first part of the reproductive process (sex) why is it legal to sell it for the last?

Thank you so much for commenting! I love to talk to my readers.

I do ask that there be no anonymous commenters, though. If I am brave enough to put my name on this blog, you should be too:-)

Please keep it civil. Remember we are all human and make mistakes, and that since we can't see each other's faces or hear each other's tone of voice, it is very hard to get the emotion in what we are saying each other. Use lots of emoticons! :-) And show grace and love to each other.
