Amazing things happened today…

First thing this morning, in the mail came a small parcel- which contained a bunch of Queensland Police promotional pens and keyrings promoting their LGBTI liaison officers.

So I was sitting in Brisbane, on the other side of the continent, at peak hour listening to a traffic report about Perth.

Vietnam stands apart from a number of countries in Asia because it does have a legal framework for surrogacy. On paper, that sounds encouraging. In practice,… Read More »Surrogacy in Vietnam: The Risks of the Black Market and Restrictive Laws

Surrogacy in Cyprus: Understanding the North vs South Divide

Surrogacy in Cyprus sounds, at first glance, like it might offer a Mediterranean alternative for intended parents looking overseas. In reality, Cyprus is not one surrogacy destination but two very different legal and political environments sitting on the same island. That divide matters enormously. For Australians in particular, surrogacy in Cyprus raises serious practical, legal… Read More »Surrogacy in Cyprus: Understanding the North vs South Divide
