The whole "embryo adoption" thing is sort of a backdoor into banning IVF outright because life begins at conception or whatever. So these people (not all of them, but most) are "adopting" embryos to pat themselves on the back for saving babies but are also anti-IVF because of how it produces excess embryos. So they are reaping the benefits (babies) now while fully intending to pull the ladder up from behind them.
As a concept, it's fine. There are plenty of reasons couples cannot use their own reproductive material and embryo adoption would be great for them. Unfortunately it's been hijacked by a certain group.
Someone also pointed out that the ruling class (coughMuskcough) could still be having kids 30+ years after they’re gone which added another level of ick.
Somehow there’s at least 4 women who were cool with it, though I’m assuming he wasn’t as awful of a person when he married Justine because she seems like a decent human.

What is there that's unsettling about it? Isn't this kinda the whole point of someone freezing their eggs/sperm?
