First picture I've posted since getting the new laptop. Damn, took me a long time to figure that out . . . .

I would think the future would be making it so no one would have to carry children in order to continue the Human race. Sex is awesome. Babies are awesome. Pregnancy not so much.

Pregnancy can be horrible, but also wonderful. But, I'll say that my husband would probably get a few more eggs out of me than I have currently agreed to if I knew we could take turns gestating, lol.

I'll take your word for it on the wonderful part.

Quite possible. But what it does to the emotional bond between mother and child is anyone's guess. Remember that old song? In the year 2525.

What bond is there when a machine is carrying the child?

Nor should there be any. Personally, I would've prefered growing up in a society where the family model was non-existent. Don't just stop at births, remove the "parents" altogether. And that's regardless of how happy I would've been otherwise.

An emotional bond, of course. And, if you're the biological mother/father, a genetic one.
