Did I miss something here?
Is someone holding these women down and forcing them to give up their eggs?
This sounds like hyperbolic bull excrement to me.
It is not considered ethical (and I am talking accepted Western medical and scientific ethics, not morality) to have someone undergo a potentially dangerous medical procedure, for pay or for free, when there is no direct therapeutic benefit.
When an infertile woman undergoes ovarian stimulation for the purpose of having a child, that is a direct therapeutic benefit. When a woman does it for pay so eggs can be harvested for stem cell research, that is not a direct therapeutic benefit.
Egg collection seems to be the exception to this ethical rule.
