I think i'm with them on this one. Also if Dustin black had been sniffing about a women at that age, he'd be called a creep. the same criticism could equally be levelled at any straight couple who have conceived naturally. there are plenty of children needing a home that any couple is free look at adopting or fostering.

Yes, I know. I think it's a tough enough moral argument when couples who can't conceive due to a biological problem before adding in couple's who we are bending reality to suit. Let's be clear here this is not their baby - it's biologically impossible. So yes i'm prepared to say it. I don't think, no matter what your life is, creating children is a right. If it means services to straight people are rationed as a result of this, I am not in favour either. Again, plenty children needing a home and Ruth Davidson and her partner would make great parents to them, im sure. That's not the argument. But if we are going down that route, then yes i'll say it. I think straight people have more of a right than homosexual couples to bear children. Sorry if it offends.

First you say no-one has a right to have kids but then say a straight couple have more of a right. You can't believe both things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"I am not sure" was the first thing i said in this thread. I am not black and white on it. You could charactarise it as confused, if you wish. So be it. my on balance view is having a child is not a right in itself. and on balance, if the world deems it is, i sort of go along with it. If it is, then yes I think couples with the biological ability to procreate have more of a right to procreate.

exile Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Isn't breeding irrelevant to politics; it's only monarchism that insists on sex as part of the job description for making heirs. Anyway being such a major public figure presumably must make life just a little easier for other 'ordinary citizens' in her circumstances. And for those who oppose her, a little more hope she might retire early to "spend more time with the family"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoonTheSlope Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 So did they use one of her wife’s eggs to plant inside her then fired someones muck up her that had been donated? If not then what legal right has the mum got, not the mum but the mum mum. If they fall out and both want custody what rights has she got?

If we start getting the Royal Baby treatment then that would be overkill. Would Kezia Dugdale have got the same coverage, who knows, but I suspect most people complaining are more focuses on who it is rather than the story itself. I agree that the people complaining are focusing on who it is rather than the story. But I think that is the point. Were we currently living in the same political climate that we were prior to Indyref, do you honestly think the leader of the conservative party in Scotland having a baby would be given almost 5 mins of top headline news in Scotland and ‘breaking news’ in the Uk, and splattered across front page of most papers? Artificial insemination is not new. Same sex relationships having children is not new . Why should a politician , any politician, be so important ?

Since a large part of Ruth's and Jan's sexual relationship is based around oral sex I'd guess their fannies are in tip top condition.

I know that it is because she is the first political leader to do this, I just dont think the story is as big as has been made out. I must just have a different idea of what is newsworthy and what is not , and of the importance of politicians in the world of conception. I dont have much of an interest in their personal life so long as it doesnt interfere with how they do their job. I wasnt pointing the finger specifically at the BBC , it was more the general media frenzy. I agree this will not go down well with more traditional Tories but IMO the media showing how fantastic the news is is unlikely to do much harm. I admit I may be over analysing things as I do not like Ruth Davidson or the Tories but I genuinely do not think I would feel any different about the newsworthiness of the story had it been a politician I like. I had better start reading Hello magazine and getting my nails done 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
