How have feminism, transgenderism, and the Sexual Revolution propelled the recent increase in single men applying to raise children via surrogacy? Holly Baines explores the issue
Since single people were granted the same surrogacy rights as couples in 2019, the number of single men pursuing parenthood through surrogacy is steadily increasing.
Between 2019 and 2025, there have been 170 applications made by single men seeking to have children through surrogacy.
We have long warned about the moral dilemma of surrogacy, IVF, and surrogacy for single parents or same-sex couples.
But this latest trend exposes how the dangers we have warned about are now becoming a reality – and an often lucrative and socially accepted reality, at that.
Men who can’t commit to marriage can’t commit to raising children
A video recently went viral on social media when a gay ‘couple’ posted a clip of their baby crying for ‘mama’, only to be told there is no mum but only ‘dada’ and ‘pop’.
This baby was born via surrogacy, which in this case is essentially the exploitation of a woman’s body to satiate the desire of two gay men to raise children in an abnormal and deeply damaging ‘family’ situation.
And yet somehow, we are supposed to accept that this is reasonable and safe for these babies?
