Equal Rights, Equal Access, Nothing Less - Since Sperm is bought and sold freely in the U.S., Artificial Womb Technology (AWT) should also be made widely available to Men who wish to have children outside of a relationship (Gestation Ex Utero).

"Artificial womb technology would allow conception and fetal development to occur completely independent of a woman's womb or allow a fetus to be transferred from a woman's womb to an artificial womb for the remainder of its gestation." (https://scholarship.kentlaw.iit.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=3724&context=cklawreview)

Medical Technology is advancing extremely quickly and it is estimated that AWT will be ready for human testing in 5 to 10 years (at most).

We will reach a point where full gestation ex utero will be possible.

I believe it is important to make sure (we have to start acting now) that Men have full access to this technology when it becomes available.

This is an opportunity... for men to acquire more control in the reproductive process. This will completely change the legal landscape and the dynamics of reproduction.

We have to act now, to make sure that Men are given full, unconditional access to AWT when it becomes available.

Side note: if women derive their value in part from the fact that only they can bear children, what is left exactly once that is taken away from them, once reproduction is possible on a large scale without women?
