ABSTRACT
The women in Sex and the City want all the things that men want—and more. They want to be rich and powerful, free in their sexual relations, able to have babies and carry on as if nothing has happened, and believe that anything is possible if there is enough money to pay for it. Even with surrogate motherhood, an increasingly popular solution to infertility or the incapacity to have a baby, there are psychological hazards beneath the surface. Surrogate motherhood appeals to many women—and men—for different reasons. In short, surrogate motherhood is also a great solution if a woman and wants to go on doing all the things that man do without the “physicality” of being a woman with a woman’s body. The most worrying aspect psychologically of surrogate motherhood is that it bypasses the actual creative process of bearing children.
