Author Taslima Nasreen clarifies that her comments about surrogacy as “rich people exploiting poor women” and “selfish narcissism” to obtain “ready-made babies” are not aimed at Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas, who recently ushered in together Their first child was conceived through surrogacy.
“My surrogacy tweet was about my different views on surrogacy. Not about Priyankanik. I love this couple,” Taslima Nasrin tweeted.
Taslima retweeted an old tweet of hers calling Priyanka and Nick a beautiful couple, writing: “Some people go crazy to show that I’m Priyanka’s enemy. But I Always admired her. Prostitution, rape, surrogacy, domestic violence, male domination, patriarchy are things I talk about a lot. This is one of the old tweets about Priyanka.”
Some people went crazy to show that I was Priyanka’s enemy. But I have always admired her. Prostitution, rape, surrogacy, domestic violence, male domination, patriarchy are things I talk about a lot.
Just a day after the couple announced the birth of their child, she had earlier posted a series of tweets against the practice of surrogacy. This led many to think it was an indirect excavation of them.
“How do those mothers feel when they get a ready-made baby through surrogacy? Do they feel the same about the baby as the mother who gave birth?” Taslima Nasrin tweeted.
In another tweet, she called it the exploitation of poor women, writing: “Surrogacy is possible because there are poor women. Rich people always want poverty in society for their own benefit. If you need it urgently Raise a child and adopt a homeless child. The child has to inherit your traits – it’s just a selfish ego.”
She further elaborated on the topic on Twitter, “Surrogacy is possible because there are poor women. Rich people always want poverty in society for their own benefit. If you urgently need to raise a child, adopt a homeless one. Homeable child. The child has to inherit your traits – it’s just a selfish ego.”
Taslima, who has been criticized for her comments about surrogacy, defended herself on Twitter, “People are insulting me for my comments about surrogacy. They claim that not renting a womb for a baby is my Stone Age idea. .I recommend adopting homeless children and not exploiting/invading poor women’s bodies. Actually, breeding babies based on the following characteristics is a Stone Age idea anyway.”
The authors say women who rent their wombs for surrogacy do so out of financial pressure, “when women are forced to sell or rent their vaginas and wombs because they’ve been violated, it’s because of poverty, or because they’re financially dependent on someone else, of course. Not a ‘choice’. If it were a ‘choice’, wealthy and independent women would have that ‘choice’, but they don’t.”
