Social Considerations of the Rationality and Paradox of Artificial Uterus Technology
As a major advancement and discovery in the field of human medicine at this stage,artificial uterus technology provides a new option for solving human fertility problems.Although artificial uterus technology has its own rationality in reducing maternal and infant mortality rates,promoting women's emancipation,stabilizing population size,and reshaping the gender division of labor in society,it has also triggered new social conflicts,such as the conflict of women's self-roles,the confrontation between artificial womb and natural conception,and the imbalance of marital relations.Only by insisting on the human-centeredness of artificial uterus technology,respecting women's reproductive choices,clarifying the boundaries of research and application of artificial uterus technology,and promoting the unity of artificial uterus technology with the harmonious development of society can we enjoy the value brought by this technology.
