Hopefully this disgraceful affair will be the last of its kind in
Thailand now that commercial surrogacy has been banned. I feel so sorry for Baby Carmen, a “child of chemistry”, who did not ask to be born and whose rights to a mum and dad have been trampled beneath the “rights” of these two homosexuals. For not only does the LGBT community want to “have its cake and to eat it too”, but it demands other people’s cakes as well. You choose your sexuality, you demand your rights, and you decide your rights include children, despite nature making it biologically impossible.
It is common sense that the complementary nature of heterosexual parents makes them better suited to bring up a child. But to express such conservative, traditional views under the LGBT “sharia” is now verging on criminality and invites furious accusations of bigotry. So much for “tolerance”.
And let us spare a thought for the second victim of this unconscionable affair – the misguided but unfortunate surrogate mother, Patidta. Not only has she lost the baby whose interests she was trying to protect, but on May 23 she also faces a libel suit brought by the same two men.
Carmen, Patidta – my thoughts are with you.
