I'm of the opinion that gay couples should be able to create their own families, and they should also have a right for a biological family. So yeah, while we should regulate this business to make sure there's no exploitation, we need to help gay couples if they want to establishb a family. Right now, it's a privilege for rich couples.
Rich couples, gay or straight, should not be allowed to buy children out of some unfortunate woman's womb either. You cannot regulate that which is inherently exploitive into not being so.
This is the first time that I've ever heard someone claim a "right to a biological family." The idea perplexes me.
What's with this idea that women could never be okay with having a baby for others who can't have one themselves?
Sure, they might. But keep out the pressure placed on them to do so by contracts or getting paid to do it.
On what basis should a surrogate be 'compensated' for the inherent risk, as mitigated as it is these days, in carrying a child? Why is there an issue with 'contracts', ensuring that the potential parent and the surrogate understand each others position?
