Oh, I think it’s about surrogacy in general; the language suggest they’re talking about the economic part, but it doesn’t specify that, so it seems they think a woman having a child for someone else is exploitation no matter what.
Considering how long it took Costa Rica to legalize in-vitro fertilization, I’m wary of any opposition to technologically assisted reproduction.
And like, surrogacy is not just about money; sometimes is about helping my beloved infertile sister become a mother
The Women and Equalities Select Committee inquiry into the Gender Recognition Act has been told to "eliminate transgenderism".
In its nine-page submission, the WHRC also called for the GRA to be repealed because it is “fatally flawed” and “creates great confusion and leads to the idea that men and women can change sex”.
The 27 November submission, is, unsurprisingly, transphobic throughout – the WHRC’s co-founders are Sheila Jeffreys and Heather Brunskell-Evans, two prominent anti-trans campaigners.
Among other things, Jeffreys has criticised the “trend of fashionable transgenderism” and describes trans rights as “internet exploited sexual fetishes”; Brunskell-Evans was sacked by the Women’s Equality Party for saying it would be “abusive” for parents to support their trans kids.
The WHRC also repeat several anti-trans claims in its submission to the Women and Equalities Select Committee, including that being trans is a phase or fad – “transgenderism is a social and historical construction not a biological one, and will increase or decrease as a result of social forces” – and the disgusting, unfounded claim that trans women are sexual fetishists – “pornography called sissy hypno hypnotises men to feel as if they are women for the purpose of sexual excitement”.
They also claim that non-binary people “have been produced by popular culture and may not exist in the future”.
