Wives of the future: A Chinese tech CEO's plan to replace women



A Chinese entrepreneur says he has finally solved the puzzle for those who do not want to get married.

In fact, Zhang Qifeng, founder of Kaiwa Technology, says his product will assist not only men who are looking for a nontraditional wife, but also women who want a child but do not want to become pregnant.

Qifeng, who previously developed service and reception robots, said his product would have a prototype within the next year and solve one of China's biggest problems.

'Some people don't want to get married but still want a "wife."'

For the low price of just $14,000 USD, Kaiwa Technology plans to fix China's population decline and aging society by introducing a "pregnancy robot," Newsweek reported.

"Some people don't want to get married but still want a 'wife'; some don't want to be pregnant but still want a child," Qifeng has decided. "So one function of our 'robot wife' is that it can carry a pregnancy," he added.

Using a synthetic uterus already at a "mature" stage, the robot would serve as an incubator for 10 months while nutrients are delivered through an artificial umbilical cord.

Still, what Qifeng is proposing could ultimately end up being illegal in China.

"I initiated development to solve the population decline issue," Qifeng continued, per VN Express. "While commercial surrogacy is designated as illegal, I want to meet the demand of those who do not wish to marry but want to have children."

The Ph.D. from Nanyang Technological University in Singapore said he hopes to work around the ban with the robots and build humanoids that "can carry a full-term pregnancy 'in the normal way.'"

"We want to integrate a gestation chamber into a humanoid robot," he said.

Qifeng appeared to then describe sex robots, saying the 100,000-yuan wombs would need to be "implanted in the robot's abdomen so that a real person and the robot can interact to achieve pregnancy, allowing the fetus to grow inside."

VN Express reported that Chinese infertility rates have skyrocketed between 2007 and 2020, from 11.9% to 18%. This issue has caused major city centers to cover artificial insemination and in-vitro fertilization under medical insurance for infertile couples.

Kaiwa Technology will have to hurdle Chinese laws that have already shut down the idea of a "nanny robot" that monitors and cares for embryos in 2022. According to the Independent, fetuses cannot be developed in artificial wombs beyond two weeks in China.

Qifeng has reportedly held discussions with provincial authorities in Guangdong, China, with no progress formally announced.

Chinese Immigrants Create 21 Children Via Surrogate Before Allegedly Abusing Them

While investigating allegations of abuse, police discovered 15 children under the age of three in the Chinese couple's L.A. mansion.

Surrogacy: Inside the industry that rents women’s bodies



Egg donation and surrogacy have been lauded as ways not only to make a large sum of cash, but also to help those in need. But whether it’s an exploited military wife or a college student pressured by financial desperation, the truth about the practice is heartbreaking.

“A new study came out … that showed almost half of people who sell their gametes go on to regret it,” Kallie Fell tells Allie Beth Stuckey, who points out that gametes are eggs or sperm.

“I just am thinking back to that college student who’s enticed by the financial gain and her altruistic motives are exploited. And just to think that half of them regret that or wonder where their children might be,” she continues.

Many of those who choose to sell their eggs or sperm are advertised to on social media, which Stuckey has noticed via large mom influencer accounts.

“I don’t know if these people are being paid, but I see a lot of influencers, who they’re mom influencers, and all of a sudden they’re on this surrogacy journey. I just saw Miss Rachel, who I know a lot of people love. Seems like a very sweet person and a very good mother. She just welcomed a child via surrogacy,” Stuckey says.


“And it just adds to this narrative that surrogacy … is this altruistic, you know, benign, benevolent process that goes on. But it’s not,” she says, asking Fell, “Would you say that surrogates are exploited in the same way that egg-sellers are?”

“Absolutely,” Fell responds. “I think a different population is often targeted for a surrogate mother than an egg donor. They're two very different populations. Surrogate mothers … it seems like more and more are contacting me daily with their horror stories.”

“Surrogate mothers tend to be women who, again, very altruistic. They want to help. They had easy pregnancies. They typically have small children at home, but they’ve had easy pregnancies and they’ve had a friend or someone else they know that struggled with infertility and they want to give the gift of life,” she continues.

But it’s not just their altruism that draws them to surrogacy.

“I found too in our research that military wives are another big target … from fertility agencies for surrogacy because they’re at home with small children. They’re often hard to employ because they’re moving around a lot with their partners in the military. And this is a way that they can contribute to their household and also help another family,” Fell explains.

And unfortunately, the risks of surrogacy are not fully known — as it's a fairly new artificial process.

“Surrogates have to be pumped with hormones as well in order to carry the child, because you have to be in the same part of your cycle that you would be if a naturally, you know, a fertilized egg was going to implant into your uterus. So your endometrial lining has to be just right,” Fell explains.

“We don’t know all the consequences of that,” she says.

What they do know is that surrogates tend to be higher risk and have increased numbers of C-sections, preterm births, placental abruptions, placental abnormalities, high blood pressure, gestational diabetes, "all of these things,” she continues, adding, “The list goes on.”

Sex offenders can’t adopt. But they can buy a baby?



Last week, a gay couple — Logan Riley and Brandon Mitchell — went viral for posting photos of the baby boy they acquired through surrogacy. What began as a celebration quickly unraveled after it emerged that one of the men is a convicted sex offender.

Social media users raised obvious concerns. Was this arrangement in the best interest of the child? What risks come with separating a baby from his mother and placing him with unrelated adult males, one of whom has a record of sex crimes? Critics asked these questions and were met, as usual, with accusations of bigotry from gay activists. But once the facts surfaced, the activists who rushed to defend the couple fell silent.

Children are not accessories. Women are not rental space. And no one should be allowed to buy a baby — least of all someone who wouldn’t be permitted to adopt one.

The pattern is familiar. Critics of surrogacy are smeared until reality breaks through the narrative. By then, the damage is done — and the child is the one who suffers.

From fallback to moral imperative

The original case for gay adoption was flimsy. It presented same-sex couples as a last resort, a solution for children who would otherwise languish in the foster system. Even its advocates admitted that two men raising a child could not replicate the contributions of a mother and father. The goal was to offer love and stability in the absence of better alternatives.

That framing has since disappeared. As the LGBTQ movement moved from acceptance to dominance, the rhetoric shifted. Gay adoption was no longer a concession. It was equal to heterosexual couples adopting, then it was superior. Religious adoption agencies that prioritized married mothers and fathers were accused of discrimination and extremism. State governments and national organizations began steering children toward same-sex households, now presented as the cultural ideal.

Once equality became unquestionable dogma, the conversation shifted again. Adoption was no longer enough. Activists turned to surrogacy — not to rescue unwanted children, but to commission biologically related ones. The moral justification evaporated. This wasn’t about saving lives so much as satisfying adult desires.

Adoption and surrogacy are not the same

Surrogacy is sometimes described as a form of adoption. That’s misleading. Adoption involves accepting responsibility for a life that already exists, often in difficult circumstances. Surrogacy deliberately creates a child to be separated from his mother and sold to strangers.

The physical and emotional toll on the mother is severe. Surrogates are often poor, vulnerable, and pressured into contracts they don’t fully understand. Children are ordered like designer fashion accessories. There are cases of forced abortions, abandoned babies, and severe trauma — all downstream from the commodification of life.

This is not a rare byproduct. It is built into the practice.

The risk to children is real

Children raised by unrelated adults face increased risks of abuse. One study found that preschool-aged children are 40 times more likely to be abused in a household with a stepparent than in one with both biological parents. The data is not absolute, but the trend is clear: Adults, especially men, are far more likely to abuse children to whom they are not biologically related.

This should alarm anyone watching the rise of surrogacy arrangements, particularly those involving male couples. These are homes where the child has no biological connection to either adult. And in some cases, as with Riley and Mitchell, one of the men has a criminal record that would disqualify him from adopting under state law.

In Pennsylvania, sex offenders are barred from adopting. But surrogacy remains unrestricted. The child in this case remains in the custody of a man the law has deemed unfit to parent.

This is not some oversight. It is a structural and legal failure.

The moral inversion is complete

We are told that the buying and selling of human beings was one of history’s greatest evils. Our education system and popular culture treat slavery as the ultimate moral horror. Yet, in the name of equality and inclusion, we now celebrate the legal sale of children — so long as it occurs under the banner of LGBTQ rights.

And so we have elevated identity above accountability. In any other context, a convicted sex offender taking custody of a newborn would be a national scandal. But when the arrangement involves a same-sex couple, basic standards are suspended. The child becomes secondary to the cultural narrative.

Enough of this

Surrogacy did not enter the mainstream through a national debate or democratic vote. It arrived through the back door, marketed as compassionate and modern. Most people didn’t understand the process. They didn’t consider the ethical costs. That time has passed. Ignorance no longer justifies our complacence.

We now see surrogacy for what it is: a commercial industry that exploits vulnerable women and treats children as consumer goods. The law must catch up with the reality.

This is not just a problem for gay couples. Surrogacy as a practice should be banned for everyone. No adult has a right to manufacture a child for personal fulfillment. No amount of wealth, influence, or legal maneuvering justifies the creation of human life as a transaction.

Children are not accessories. Women are not rental space. And no one should be allowed to buy a baby — least of all someone who wouldn’t be permitted to adopt one.

Rising Popularity Of Rent-A-Womb Industry Emboldens Pedophiles To Buy Proximity To Kids

Since the rent-a-womb industry is expected to continue growing at a rapid rate, it’s only logical to conclude that heartwrenching cases like that of this boy will only continue.

Homosexual who fundraised to get baby through surrogacy exposed as pedophile



Logan Riley and Brandon Keith Mitchell of Seven Valleys, Pennsylvania, made a big show of their efforts to secure custody of a baby boy through surrogacy.

Although they apparently started the process in 2019, the homosexual couple began hitting up strangers for cash in 2020 on GoFundMe to help expand their "family by using a gestational surrogate."

A Nov. 3, 2023, update on their now-deleted fundraising page stated: "Since our last post, we successfully created four embryos through an egg donor program in 2020. After three long years of searching, a family friend ... reached out in early 2023 to see if we were still looking. After multiple conversations and a great connection with her family, we decided to proceed."

The couple recently shared a compilation video on social media featuring them repeatedly kissing a baby boy reportedly in their custody.

The video was subsequently reshared on X by critics concerned about the boy's well-being as well as about homosexual adoption in general. Despite accusations of bigotry, it turns out that the critics were right to worry, as the boy is now allegedly in the custody of a registered sex offender.

State documents indicate that Mitchell, age 30 at the time, was arrested and charged in early February 2016 with three felony counts of possession of child pornography; endangering the welfare of children; corruption of a minor; felony sexual abuse of a minor; and felony photographing/videotaping sexual acts in Chester County, Pennsylvania.

At the time of his arrest, he had been a chemistry teacher at Downingtown West High School for roughly five years.

According to a Pennsylvania Professional Standards and Practice Commission memo concerning Mitchell's voluntary surrender of his teacher's certificate, the pedophile engaged in sexually explicit communications with a minor student, "including asking the student for nude pictures, sending the student nude pictures and asking the student to masturbate on video so [Mitchell] could watch." The student was in his class.

The Delaware County Daily Times reported that when investigators executed a search warrant and checked Mitchell's electronic devices and phone records, they found over 12,000 text messages between the pedophile and the victim — conversations Mitchell asked the minor to delete.

"This defendant used his position of trust and authority to engage in serious misconduct with a student," Charles Gaza, then chief of staff of the Chester County District Attorney's Office, stated at the time. "As always in cases like this, where a teacher had access to hundreds of students over multiple years, the authorities are concerned that there may be other victims out there."

According to the Pennsylvania Sex Offender Registry, Mitchell was convicted in October 2016 for sexual abuse of children and for possession of child pornography. Reduxx reported that Mitchell was sentenced to 23 months in prison but was ultimately granted parole after just two months.

'Local authorities must investigate immediately.'

Years after his arrest, Mitchell reportedly "married" Riley, a second-grade teacher from Maryland.

Derek Blighe reposted the homosexual couple's celebratory baby video with the caption, "Unless a miracle happens, this child has almost no chance at a normal life."

Reduxx highlighted how Blighe was initially met with criticism from non-straight activists over his post, which had over 11.4 million views at the time of publication.

Nathan Hale, the host of "The Spin Cycle" podcast, wrote, "Imagine what would happen if he said this about a divorced mother, or a single father. But yet we tolerate hate because it’s a gay couple."

Another X user noted, "Makes me happy. That baby is going to be raised not to hate people and will be loved."

One leftist commentator suggested, "Being a homophobe in 2025 is such small d**k energy."

After it was revealed that Mitchell is a convicted pedophile, Blighe wrote, "Just wondering if online apologies are a thing on X?"

Bev Jackson, co-founder of the LGB Alliance, deleted her original response, which read, "That is homophobic. If the child has two loving male parents, there is no evidence whatsoever that he or she will not prosper."

Jackson wrote to Blighe, "If it is true that one of the men is a convicted sex offender, then I apologize - regarding this specific case."

Blaze News reached out to Mitchell for comment.

The division of the Pennsylvania State Police responsible for maintaining Mitchell's sex offender registration told Reduxx that the state does not automatically prohibit sex offenders from gaining custody or exercising parental rights over children.

The Keystone State prohibits sex offenders from adopting or fostering kids, but gestational surrogacy reportedly gives pedophiles such as Mitchell a workaround.

"Local authorities must investigate immediately, including exploring removal of the child as an urgent consideration," Helen Gibson of Surrogacy Concern told Reduxx. "Unfortunately this is not the first case of a sex offender procuring a child from a surrogate mother that we have come across; we fear this is the tip of the iceberg. Vetting of commissioning parents in surrogacy is virtually nonexistent and is not comparable with checks we see in adoption."

Even with the supposed checks in adoption, pedophiles still exploit the system.

For instance, an LGBT activist couple in Georgia were convicted in December of brutally sexually abusing their two adopted boys over the course of years. Blaze News previously reported that child rapists William Zulock and Zachary Zulock, who were accused of adopting the boys to produce child pornography, both pleaded guilty to numerous counts of aggravated sodomy, aggravated child molestation, incest, and multiple counts of child exploitation of children.

The homosexual couple, who frequently hashtagged their social media posts "gayfamily," were both sentenced to serve 100 years in prison without parole.

4 Reasons Chip And Joanna Gaines Shouldn’t ‘Normalize’ Gay Surrogacy

Same-sex couples must always seek to 'normalize' their families for the very reason they are not normal and never will be.

Chip And Joanna Gaines’ Compromise Is A Warning To Us All

The place where we are seeing the most disappointing compromise from Christians today is on matters of sex, gender, and marriage.

Tragic: Chip and Joanna Gaines' new show exploits 'forced motherlessness'



Chip and Joanna Gaines have been beloved by their Christian fans for years, but now they’re facing backlash for featuring a gay couple and their surrogacy-born sons on their new reality show “Back to the Frontier.”

The gay couple explained in an interview that they applied for the show in order to “normalize same-sex relationships,” but BlazeTV host Allie Beth Stuckey believes it's much more than that.

“Their mission is to normalize forced motherlessness, which is the forcing of a child to live without their mother, and that is what is going on here, of course, and so they wanted to glorify that, they wanted to expand their platform so that more people could see this kind of relationship and more people could think, ‘OK, maybe a mom is unnecessary,’” Stuckey explains.

“‘Maybe a husband can become a wife, and maybe a dad can become a mom.’ I mean, it is functional transgenderism,” she continues. “Even if people aren’t actually identifying as the opposite sex, they are certainly identifying as the opposite gender role.”


The gay couple also claimed in the same interview that part of the reason they applied to be on the show was because they saw a flyer for the show with a gay couple in it.

“So that means, from the get-go, Magnolia Network along with HBO, they were trying to attract a gay couple. It's not one of those things where, ‘OK, they weren’t looking for that.’ They just stumbled upon this, you know, exceptionally charismatic couple, and they just said, ‘OK, we have to go with them,’” Stuckey says.

“That’s what they were looking for. And if you don’t think that Chip and Joanna had a say in that, or at least knowledge of that and confirmed that, then you’re crazy. Or maybe you just don’t understand the level of influence they have as the executive producers of this show,” she continues.

Stuckey not only takes issue with forced motherlessness but sees deep moral issues with surrogacy itself.

“You’re discarding all kinds of embryos, all so two men can do what God created them not to be able to do and that is have biological children without a mother that is raising them,” she says.

“This is a social experiment in which we are laying the well-being of children on the altar of adult desire, and there is nothing more disordered than that,” she continues, adding, “Demanding children who cannot consent to this motherlessness to sacrifice their innate needs, their biological longing for their mother in services to the disordered desires of adults.”
