The law was partially founded with the aim of protecting poor women around the world who are exploited for surrogacy. “There are certainly women who are exploited, but this happens in countries where there is no regulation,” said Baldini. “Italy can’t argue that surrogates in California are being exploited because in California it is perfectly legal.”
If you see smoke, that’s just my body going up in flames with rage at this idiot.
“Italy can’t argue that slaves in California are being exploited because in California it is perfectly legal” - see how something being legal doesn’t necessarily mean it’s right and not harming people?
Need a break from all the depressing things about being a woman in this world? This circle is for you!
This circle is for celebrating all the good news relating to women's interests (and by all, we mean ALL, even the things you might disagree with, e.g. achievements or advancements for women in the military, business, religion, etc.)
Rules:
Relevance: Women should be the primary focus. Posts about men being held accountable, found guilty of crimes, etc. are NOT appropriate for this circle.
Formatting: Posts should be actual news, preferably in the form of an article or from an official news source. Do not edit the headline of linked articles; if you would like to provide additional commentary, please do so in a comment.
Civility: Keep discussions on topic. Do not denigrate the achievements or advancements of women.
Promoting Infighting or Drama: Do not start or perpetuate infighting or drama. Disagreements must be civil and must be about the CONTENT of the post, not about the poster, other commenters, the site, etc.

Its the same argument men use to defend prostitution.
"She didn't have a gun to her head when she agreed to do it. So there's no coercion involved whatsoever!"
That argument won't work, because IIRC, European countries don't extradite US criminals if there is death penalty involved.
