Surrogacy! While most seller surrogacy. In common parlance, to designate a state that invades and transforms women's bodies, they say pregnancy. Gestation is much better. It's science, disembodied. It's AHR, test tubes and white coats.
For others? It is the gift. A gesture to another. A little generosity to the kingdom of individualism.
The term "surrogate mother" is uncomfortable. By definition, the mother can be a carrier and the carrier declines to be mother. So how to set the woman's biological mother or not, pregnant and gave birth to a child she will give to others? Its function is to carry, it was simple to call carrier. We could also call it an incubator, deposit-bellied, slow cooker ...
's Magic and genius, was to make it disappear. It does not name more, it is the evocation of absent and invisible. We're talking new parenthood, interests of the child, parentage.
Review of bioethics legislation provides an opportunity for associations favorable to the GPA to express their views. Their argument is articulated. Changes in lifestyles, families, sexualities ... What constitutes the right to parent is the love we give. And there's so much love available on the planet that are even women who, through empathy, will bring children into the world for others.
Once these assumptions posed, the controversy goes.
EVADE THE QUESTION OF THE HUMAN BODY OF MERCHANTABILITY
Framing to prevent abuse? It's the least! Determine the amount of compensation will the surrogate for others? A technical question. The absence of discrimination ? It is consistent with the commitment of the entire left in favor of recognizing same-sex parenting.
The beautiful architecture of the evidence and consensus, however, must balance an essential part: the shared belief on the one hand that the surrogate mothers are exclusively driven by the desire to serve and, secondly, that the legislation will help detect and prevent abuse. Abuse, marginal, meaning that women candidates for the money rather than love or couples who would be willing to pay more than the legal allowance. Make
admit that pregnancy alternative is a selfless act can dodge question of the commodification of human body and more specifically of women's bodies. It is a fiction or manipulation!
Certainly, there are flying fish but they are not the most numerous. Without doubt, women are surrogate mothers by giving of oneself, but the vast majority of women willing to rent their bellies have in common extreme poverty.
Those who propose the same countries are from poor and parents live in the same rich countries. Demand is high, infertile couples and homosexuals very many, poverty ensures that the offer is not about to dry up.
Therefore, the role of the legislator is it simply to moralize le marché ? N'est-il pas aussi de délimiter le champ du marché, de dire ce qui n'est pas cessible, ce qui échappe par nature à toute forme de transaction ?
Les disparités législatives entre les différents pays européens sont souvent convoquées dans le débat pour justifier la légalisation. Pourquoi interdire ici, ce qui est accessible ailleurs ?
TANT QU'ON POURRA ACHETER, LOUER OU VENDRE LE CORPS DES FEMMES
L'interdiction serait une machine à créer des enfants au statut juridique incertain puisque, droit ou pas, ils naissent. Pire encore, la prohibition créerait le trafic et provoquerait de graves inégalités entre les parents qui peuvent pay to circumvent the law and those who can not afford.
is probably true, but for legalization for an end to illegal practices, even should it be that the application does not exceed supply, which is doubtful.
The controversy over the legalization of surrogacy can not be caricatured as a contrast between modern and archaic and dogmatic or pragmatic.
Many of us do not see the legalization of surrogacy or human progress, nor personal freedom and public news. We are seeing a commoditization and expansion of the use and marketing of reproductive and sexual functions that could, as pointed Sylviane Agacinski, ("Body Bits", Flammarion) "transform the old servitude in modern social work." Admit
trade reproductive function is to admit social appropriation of women's bodies to console the suffering of infertile couples. It is founded to oppose. It is recalled that until you can buy, rent or sell women's bodies, gender equality will remain unattainable. It is also to take stock of the anthropological revolution at work and the symbolic significance of violations of human dignity that may result in complete dissociation of sexuality and procreation.
