IF an embryo could be successfully removed from a female

[Higherarky]

and implanted into a male, how many males do you think would be willing to gestate and deliver the result?

[Ocelot II]

1. Depends on how delivery would be accomplished. Sounds kind of tricky.

[Picaro]

2. None

3. I'd never surrender an embryo of mine

that I did not want to gestate myself. The gestational slavery advocates don’t get my DNA, ever.

[Haggard Celine]

4. I wonder if it would be legal in the anti-abortion states

to have an embryo removed and frozen. It technically wouldn't be an abortion, but it would still end the pregnancy. I'm sure people will come up with some creative solutions to this problem.

8. Postponing a pregnancy without termination.

It might force the issue on fertility clinics, and also give Planned Parenthood an alternative to closing facilities, which do a lot more than just terminate pregnancies for women.

[Haggard Celine]

9. Yes, we need to save Planned Parenthood.

They do extremely valuable work for lots of people, women and men as well. Sometimes Planned Parenthood is the only reproductive care that people can get. And they're needed in the red states more than anywhere else. I hope they're able to stay afloat and continue their important work throughout the country.

5. zero n/t

6. If a hetero couple wanted to have a child...

... and the female was incapable of gestating the embryo to term, I'm sure it's possible a male who could gestate to term would.

7. That's some serious surgery required to make a birthing pouch.

Homo Sapiens aren't Seahorses.
I suppose a male could deliver via C-section, but there still has to be some sort of internal pouch/organ with the proper fluids for a fertilized embryo to attach and develop an umbilical cord to.

11. Exactly!

Human males aren't built for gestating embryos. If a uterus could be transplanted... Now it's still cutting edge tech for transplant into cis women... and apparently it's been done. The next hurdle is uterus transplant into trans women. Then cis men from there I suppose.

14. There is an entire industry built around this very problem

It's not male gestation, either.

If childless couples want children, they procure them from a primarily international supply. But that's about to change back to the bad old days.

[Just A Box Of Rain]

10. More than a few

[arlyellowdog]

12. So many men who have experienced loss

My son’s mother-in-law said he’d take the pain in a heartbeat. All the mean rotten legislation has been so hard on couples trying to have a baby and dealing with loss. I wish they could have healthcare and sympathy.

13. This bring up a question...

So what about in-vitro fertilization? My understanding of the process is that there may be multiple eggs fertilized during the process. Are doctors or patients going to be held guilty of abortion if not all the fertilized eggs are implanted?

[Claire Oh Nette]

15. Can't ban one without banning the other, if consistency is of value.

Affluent, well insured folks do this, not poor women.

[JesterCS]

16. depends on the political alignment

most likely. R: less than 1% of any.
