Yes, very interesting. When I had my first child I had A LOT of milk. The health visitor and lactation nurse commented on it and tried to convince me to donate to the milk bank. The milk bank is obviously an important service and I applaud any woman who donates her milk, BUT I was a young, first-time mum. I was really struggling. In hindsight, I'm sure I had a bit of postnatal depression, though I thankfully never went really low. The milk bank wasn't mentioned to me only once. I was repeatedly contacted about donating over the whole six months that I breastfed. It was only because I truly hated breastfeeding that I never gave in.I worry about women in families or female friends of males who might be groomed into being a surrogate because it would be the 'kind thing' or the 'dutiful' to do. I can see it happening if surrogacy become s less taboo and more of an expectation. Women get gaslit en masse already, I can definitely see some being manipulated by their friends and family. Much like some women are manipulated into doing other things, or manipulated into putting up with abuse, etc.
I didn't think about it much at the time, but the way I was approached is in no way how anyone would be approached about donating blood. There was so much guilt tripping on how I had a healthy baby and I had so much milk, and so many women didn't have that. It's actually quite upsetting to write down. Surrogacy will 100% prey on women who have been socialised to be kind and accommodating and caring. It's so wrong.
