Jennifer Lahl, who created the documentaries Breeders, Eggsploitation, and Anonymous Father’s Day, makes many good points in an interview. She discusses the physical and psychological harm done to the children arising from inhuman interactions (monetary transactions and clinical procedures) and to the women who sell their eggs and rent their wombs. She explains that the reproductive-technology industry has become a big business with a big lobbing group to further its aims (of making more money for the doctors, pharmacists, and drug companies involved.)

She fails, however, to reach the root of the problem: the separation of sexual intercourse from the conception of a child, the consequences of which are the dehumanization of all involved in such transactions and the further dehumanization of society. She also fails to notice that the acceptance of contraception leads to the acceptance of all reproductive technology.
