I voted against prop 8 in CA and I gave money to defeat it. I believe
people should live the life they choose. I do however think the bay rabies
brings out the very worst in some people and the feelings of the child are
ever considered. Like 65 year old women having IVF. I have more compassion
for those kids than I care to tell you.

Because you are ignorant of the laws around such things. The question would
be who is the mother? And don't confuse biology with law in this case. The
egg donor or the woman who caried the baby to term? It's a really sticky
point of law and when these cases land in court it is a nightmare to
resolve. And usually the children are left severly damaged in the process.
