They spend all their youth preaching feminism, woman power, you go girl and deceiving other women, then they get to their 40s and realize as a woman no achievement can make up for not having a child because that is what you are biologically programmed to do.

They can afford IVF, surrogacy etc. most of the women they lead astray can’t and don’t even have a man!

jmoore:
Chai. Someone is placing surrogacy and prostitution in same basket. And he's APC Tinubu supporter.

Who did this to you people?

Why always proving Daniel Bwala right?

omoyorubaatata:
Stop defending the indefensible. Do you think only sperms and eggs make a child to develop? What about the feeding, blood and other nutrients that the baby is deriving from the body of the surrogate? Oh that is not required? So why dont they deposit their eggs and sperms in a goat instead?

thesicilian:
Father provides sperm
Mother provides egg.
Surrogate provides enabling environment for this to grow.

It's either you have a problem with basic biology, or you just love the attention you're getting from everyone trying to correct you. Probably a sad lonely young man in real life.

It's not certain that you read through or you deliberately shut ur mind out cos of the bias u got against her. If not, you would have seen that she has a 9yr old and it's a case of secondary infertility.

I don't want to say what's on my mind. However, this is double standards coming from Chimamanda who is a self acclaimed feminist. Is she not supposed to be a voice for women being a feminist?. Surrogacy is a form of slavery, prostitution, exploitation of a woman's body. She knew she didn't practice what she preaches, little wonder she didn't come out earlier. Like it or not, accept it or not, any baby born through surrogacy does not belong to you biologically. No matter how some states or countries might legalize it, biologically, the child isn't yours still. Well, I wish her well. But next time, stay one place, if you want to practice feminism, do it with your full chest, otherwise, commot. Reminds me of Linda Ikeji preaching abstinence but lo and behold, aunty was busy jumping on Uber to go and collect. I hate double standards.

PS; it seems some folks just want to argue for the sake of it. There's a reason she's called a Surrogate Mother

omonnakoda:
It is not a case of secondary infertility but a lifestyle choice
Rich people have the means to freeze their eggs and can have babies through surrogacy into their 70s or even after they are dead

Women make such decision because they want to preserve their figures and they are rich and in some cases do not even want a man so they get a sperm donor who is anonymous

Kobojunkie:
Are feminists anti-adoption and anti-surrogacy?

Kobojunkie:
This just brought a thought to mind. While we congratulate the mother of the babies, shouldn't we also congratulate the surrogate for making it out of the ordeal alive and well? This isn't meant as a jab,so don't bother quoting me to say nonsense.

chris51:
Whoever owns the eggs is the biological mother. If DNA is done, it will not show that the surrogate woman has anything to do with it.

loffyloffy:
➜ Definitely anti surrogacy.

She is 47 now.

When were the eggs(if they are hers_) harvested

It looks like she just made selfish choices because she has money not to go through pregnancy when she was younger and now will just go to the Freezer bring out eggs and find a vulnerable surrogate woman to exploit and she can probably do that every 2 or 3 years
We are in a tough world and so for the Nigerian mind that is no biggie
Agreement is agreement

But she should stop forming feminist

chris51:
For goodness sake. Why is it your problem. It's not strange in civilized world. Kim gave birth to two and two by surrogate and the four children are her and Kanye West biological children.

Kobojunkie:
How? What is the connection or lack?

loffyloffy:
➜Feminist perspectives on surrogacy are diverse, with some feminists supporting women's right to choose surrogacy, while others view it as a form of exploitation and oppression. Liberal feminists generally view surrogacy as a matter of reproductive autonomy, while radical feminists argue it reinforces patriarchal control over women's bodies and reinforces traditional gender roles.

SmartPolician:
Most people (men and women inclusive) who throw feminism around don't even know its meaning. Are you sure you know the meaning of feminism?

➜The surrogate mother was probably paid. The same way men donate sperm... you don't go looking for the sperm donor to thank him. Do you?

Kobojunkie:
You compare carrying a child for 9 whole months and through labor— something that has been described as a long-term illness — to the spilling of sperm, and almost auto reflex for many out there? 😩😩😩😩

Kobojunkie:
Where do these ideas of yours regarding them come from?

Also, since she has nothing against using surrogacy, doesn't that invariably notify you of the camp she supposedly belongs in all of this?
