...In this article I shall argue tentatively for the claim that\ncommercial surrogacy should be legally permissible. I am more strongly\nconvinced that a commitment to feminism should not predispose anyone against\nsurrogacy. At least, no arguments offered so far should persuade anyone who\nis committed to equal rights for women and men and the dismantling of\ngender-based hierarchies to favor either legal prohibition or moral\ncondemnation of commercial surrogacy.
