The reason it is controversial is because people who perform experiments on non-human animals are supposed to have be able to justify the necessity of doing such experiments, and "I was curious" is just not good enough. I expect the reason the birth rates are down in these countries is sociological. There are already too many people, I don't think we need more. There are literally millions of children in the world who need adopting.

Allowing transwomen and gay couples to have children seems like pretty good reason. If researches would dress-up their research in western rhetoric, they would be applauded.

That doesn't seem like a good reason as long as there are children who
need adoption and foster care.

You can bury the entire IVF field with such arguments.
The good reason is that many people want their own children and though you might find their desire immoral, they are not bound to accept your morality standards.

I never said anything about morality. If you read my statement and think it had broad moral implications, they belong to you.

Pretty sure that stuff is controversial to the majority of the people in this planet maybe in a couple places like SF it is not but that is just because the social engineers have desensitized people, anyone even the most meat loving hunter in the world will get a tad horrified at what is described in this article.
They basically mutilated a rat by connecting it to another rat's circulatory system, implanted a uterus and then impregnated it.
That is just fucked up and things like GR are still pretty bonkers if you even understanding. Like a guy getting a hole that he has to dilate in order to keep open, and most descriptions of this kind of surgery they are disturbing even for the people that believe they want them...

Do you put lemon juice on your face often, or is it reserved for special occasions? We are not sitting around a campfire, so your spooky stories about minorities - which are totes real, guys, not inaccurate in the least! - seem a tad unnecessary.
On a completely unrelated note, I'd like to mention the - irrelevant! - fact that SRS - with all its complications, such as the initial maintenance necessary to train the muscles and avoid scarring - was first created, and is very much still used, for cis people.
50% of population can not get pregnant. Birth rate in China and Japan is down, we need this sort of technology.
