There are a ton of letters in today’s NYT magazine in response to the article about surrogacy. ( I’ve written about the original article a couple of times, once when it came out and once a week or so later.) There have also been hundreds of comments posted on the on-line version of the original story.
Unsurprisingly, the letters reflect a range of perspectives. Many of them are quite thoughtful and make excellent points. If you’ve been following surrogacy generally or the story of the story, as it were, you might enjoy them. A lot of readers were (like me) struck by the photos chosen to accompany the article. It’s really apparently true that a picture is worth a thousand words.
As much as anything I am interested to note that surrogacy is such a lightening rod sort of issue. I do think the article was particularly provocative–perhaps because that is what sells magazines?–but it is clear that general public interest in the issue remains lively all these years after Baby M.
