I mean I can imagine a person being a surrogate for a friend who cant have a child willingly. In most cases its just exploitative though

there are exceptions but that doesn’t change the exploitative nature. The relationship between the workers and their boss is exploitative, this doesn’t change despite there being good bosses

Criminalizing surrogacy would 100% make things worse… I can’t see why anyone that cares about people with wombs would support that.

commerical surrogacy yes surrogacy where only medical fees can legally be paid I would argue is fine

I see the parallels with the sex work argument and I think the comparisson raises an excellent point.

So when people talk about abolishing the family do they generally mean the model of 2 parents and a kid completely isolated from anyone because in my experience that doesn’t actually exist and family includes friends and other relatives

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
