Here in (country) everyone on the left hates surrogacy with a burning passion, since it involves rich people essentially buying babies and using the bodies of poor women for their own benefit. Even the right wing parties feel sliiightly uncomfortable discussing said topics (with the exception of the extremely liberal ones who also love to act all european and modern).
Even sitcoms such as Friends or Always Sunny in Philadelphia had plotlines where this happened and they didn't pointed out how some rich fuck was taking advantage of a poor person. (Well, it was a sitcom so the poor person was either an asshole or doing it out of the goodness of their hearts, but you get the picture: whitewashing surrogacy is also bad).
So yeah, what's the deal with that? No one points out how fucked up it is???
Like others have said, this is controversial for US liberals. The root of the problem is that the nuclear family is the only remaining social bond in American society that exists outside of the market (kinda). So it's natural that queer Americans think that a nuclear family of their own is the only way to have do things. In ancient societies, or even just non-Angloid ones, social roles were created for queer people that let them be part of a family and contribute to a community, but here we have nothing. Commerical surrogacy is obviously fucked up, but the problem is that liberals can't really articulate anything better.
