Niadtong 1974 dunay hit song si Paul Angka nga “(You’re) Having My Baby.” Gihinganlan si Angka og “male chauvinist pig” sa mga feminist nga pundok. Ang hinungdan niini kay daw misugyot ang lyrics sa kanta nga siya maoy tag-iya sa bata ug nga ang mabdos igo lang midala niani para kaniya. Gawas niani may ikaduha pang kontrobersiya ang kanta, ang daw pagsugyot niani og abortion.

Ania ang lyrics sa number-one hit nga duet ni Paul Angka ug Odia Coates para matuki ninyo pagmaayo ang mga gikagubtang linya. Kamo na lay pangita sa YouTube kon interesado kamo sa tuno niani.

Having My Baby
Havin’ my baby/What a lovely way of sayin’/How much you love me/Havin’ my baby/What a lovely way of sayin’/What you’re thinkin’ of me/I can see it, face is glowin’/I can see in your eyes/I’m happy you know it
[Both:]That you’re havin’ my baby
[Paul:]You’re the woman I love/And I love what it’s doin’ to ya
[Both:]Havin’ my baby
[Paul:]You’re a woman in love/And I love what’s goin’ through ya
[Paul:]The need inside you/I see it showin’/Whoa, the seed inside ya/Baby, do you feel it growin’/Are you happy you know it/That you’re
[Both:]Havin’ my baby
[Odia:]I’m a woman in love/And I love what it’s doin’ to me
[Both:]Havin’ my baby
[Odia:]I’m a woman in love/And I love what’s goin’ through me
[Paul:]Didn’t have to keep it/Wouldn’t put ya through it/You could have swept it from you life/But you wouldn’t do it/No, you wouldn’t do it
[Both:]And you’re havin’ my baby
[Odia:]I’m a woman in love/And I love what it’s doin’ to me
[Both:]Havin’ my baby
[Odia:]I’m a woman in love/And I love what’s goin’ through me
[Paul:]Havin’ my baby (havin’ my baby)/What a lovely way of sayin’/How much you love me
[Paul:]Havin’ my baby/(havin’ my baby)
[Odia:]I’m a woman in love/And I love what’s goin’ through me.

Fast forward to 2015 kanus-a nahimo na nga komersyo ang surrogate pregnancy. Kon sa una ang mga sapiang Westerner mang-adopt og mga bata sa Asian countries, karon nga daghan na ang kwartahan sa China ug sa ubang bahin sa Asia, daghan na ang mga Asiano nga dili makapanganak ang mobayad og surrogate Western mama para modala sa ilang bata. Makadawat og 35,000 to 45,000 dollars ang mopahimugso sa maong bata. Daghan sa nangitag surrogate mom sa China mga magtiayong bayot ug mga magtiayong tomboy (LGBT). Dili nila mahimo sa ilahang nasod ang surrogate pregnancy kay ginadili kini sa ilang balaod. Ganahan sila sa usa ka Amerikana nga inahan nga mohimugso niani sa America kay ma-instant American citizen ang bata nga mahimong mo-claim kanila inig edad na niani og 21 anyos.

Matod pa sa usa ka surrogate mom: “I’m just babysitting. I’m just an oven and at the end of the day I give the cake back.”
Unsa kahay panahom sa mga aktibista kon kantahan sa mga Insik nga LGBT ang Amerikanang gadala sa ilang bata sa Paul Angka hit nga “Having My Baby”?
