Guerini suggests: “The use of your own body would be considered a sign of social inferiority and poverty. A natural mother would be considered potentially irresponsible, like mothers who currently opt for home birth, refusing the hospitalisation and medicalisation of the process… Natural childbirth would first be treated as irresponsible, then criminal.
“Remember that there can be no Medically Assisted Procreation (MAP) without the selection of spermatozoa and of embryos… When technoscientists get involved in the process of procreation they want to set the characteristics of each of these elements, choose them, modify them and determine the end result.
“The laboratory environment transforms the birth process into a technical operation: the embryo becomes a product to be selected, improved, rejected or transformed”.
Guerini explains that there have long been some feminists, notably Shulasmith Firestone, who acclaim artificial reproduction as “liberating” women from “biological tyranny”.
And she predicts that artificial wombs will be demanded, like MAP, as a “right” for everyone, including “transgender” people.
These are “false rights”, says Guerini, and need to be exposed as such.
“Having a child cannot be claimed as a right, neither for a heterosexual couple nor for a homosexual couple, nor for a single woman or man. There cannot be a right to have a child. The capacity to generate life cannot be claimed as a new right by men who identify as women. Procreation can never belong to them”.
