"Therefore, women - especially poor women - should not be exploited for their 'reproductive capacities.' Neither should women be treated as egg farms. The rank commercialization of a woman's eggs objectifies women in the same way prostitution and pornography objectifies them. It treats them as 'human hens', not as persons. So, no matter how much someone is willing to pay for a woman's eggs for reproduction or research, the grotesque moral and social costs are too high to endorse it."
