By that logic, it's also fine to go overseas and buy kidneys from poor people. Human trafficking laws exist for a reason. So do Australia's human tissue acts. And so do Australian laws banning domestic commercial surrogacy, and overseas commercial #surrogacy. #ukraine #TheDrum

I took all my tweets on public health law and turned them into a blog post. So, if you've ever wondered how law and public health go together, here's a short(ish) explainer #phlaw sydneyhealthlaw.com/2022/03/21/a-s…
Quote from a NSW Govt 2016 paper. Here's more: 'The commercialisation of human reproduction via #surrogacy arrangements increases the risk of #exploitation of women, in particular those who are #poor, and lack the education and capacity to negotiate and give informed consent.'
Here is a prime example of how the baby-above-all-else narrative triumphs over fact in the #media: a 🧵. Let's start with criminal offences. In fact, overseas commercial #surrogacy is ILLEGAL for residents of NSW. Sydney, obviously, is NSW's capital. @smh fails to mention this.

I think you'd be surprised at how often people see someone not speaking English and subconsciously assume that (1) we're stupid, (2) we don't know how to raise our children, and (3) it's their right/obligation to let us know that.
