I'm going to repeat part of what varyouga amd massgopguy said, because this is important:

"Biotech companies advertise all the time here on campus. They print stuff like “Earn $5000 Easy and Fast”. In reality, the procedures are very taxing with a significant risk of complications."

"Egg harvesting will also leave millions of women sterile if they get into the super-ovulation regimens required."

Right now they're paying the premium "top dollar" women (University student, blonde, long legs, blue-eyed and all that) $5,000 for ova to use for baby manufacturing for rich people who want smart blonde IVF babies. That's bad enough, since, inter alia, submitting to a bizarro-world hormonal regimen and surgery misrepresented to you as "safe," and ending up reproductively maimed, sterile, and/or dead is what we could call a suboptimal outcome, OK?

But the clone-research deal turns out to be much, much worse than even IVF-by-donor, because they're not going to pay anywhere near $5,000 per donor/vendor, and it won't matter whether the donor/vendor is an English Major at UCLA or a low-income, non-computer-literate young gal in Bakersfield or, better yet, Brazil.

Because for cloning research, they'll pay chump change per ovulatory cycle, and t'hell with whether the human subject was desperate, coerced, or unable to grasp the fine print or "do her own research" on the Internet. This is a brutal commodification of the bodies of women and girls.

(And you don't think there are plenty of men in societies where women are already regarded as chattel, who would sell their wives and daughters into this scheme?)

White Ova and Embryos, Great for Babies!

Brown Ova and Embryos (by the millions) Perfect for Experimentation!!

And I won't even talk about the prospect of what the very insightful Mrs. Veritatis Splendor said here.

Thank God for the feminists who can see what's coming down the road. The further they get into opposing this, the more they'll see the whole picture, babies and all.
