In grad school, I took a class on adoption in literature (I had a vested interest, since I was adopted). The professor's premise was that adoption was "commodifying" (in Marxist-speak) a child. Eventually, I figured out that in Woke-land, adoption *has* to be demonized because it presents a feasible alternative to abortion.

Which makes Woke support for surrogacy all the more ironic. A gay couple who literally *pays* a woman to have a baby is somehow magically not "commodifying" the child the way an adoptive heterosexual couple is. Also, regardless of this article's assertions, surrogacy is still largely a luxury of the wealthy.
All of which goes to show that money is more important than ideology. And--as with Trans Activism--the needs of men are readily placed ahead of any respect for women.
Also insane how white adoptive parents are called racist(!) for adopting a nonwhite child even if that childs mother died in cambodia or compton or something. And yet you can hire an agent to scout out a mexican woman (albeit skin color unknown), “but make sure shes tall with green eyes!” and that is totally ok in the woke worldview? Dude this kinda stuff is legit bonkers
