Also, in a majority of cases, surrogates are employed by cishet couples In many of these cases the wife is able to produce ova but unable to conceive, and is therefore the egg donor for the pregnancy So the child does not have, by your definition, a single "real mother"

This reminds me of this situation I encountered when I was a kid when an adult I knew was opining how if we ever got to the point where we could grow kids in vats, it'd be a tragity because those kids would miss out on bonding with their mothers in the womb?

Perhaps you should read Brave New World which deals with this very situation.

I did and I'm going to be honest 1) I hated it 2) I forgot almost everything about it. And 3) It has nothing to do with my point.

Growing kids in vats has nothing to do with your point? Hmmm - interesting.

Brave New World's discussion of growing kids in vats has nothing to do with my response to an adult in my life's impression of how growing kids in vats would impact children. If you want to advise this adult to Brave New World, good luck.

Ok, fine. When I relay how an adult in my life thought that growing kids would be impacted by growing kids in vats, what was your point by telling me to read Brave New World?

Cos it was one of the ways they controlled society and rendered parents obsolete.

So you think that would be a good idea then?

I think it certainly makes for a gripping story for a bestselling novel
