I don't see this technology as viable because gestation is so complicated. I think it would likely cause a class-based stratification of womahood if it happened. Potential positive effects are that career-oriented women would have an easier time developing their careers, and it would make it easier to preserve gender equality in relationships. I think the physical realities of pregnancy and childbearing are under discussed as a cause of why relationships slide into stereotypical gender roles.

But if this technology happens in the real world, there is no way it will be cheap. So women who either can't afford it or have a religious/other type of motivation for physically gestating a child will still deal with the physical effects of pregnancy. I think they will be at a greater disadvantage because more elite women will have no need to advocate for policies to help them. I think they will likely feel some guilt that will sublimate into resentment or disgust.

But even though I think it would be dystopian, I also would have loved the option of artificial pregnancy. I would have liked to have more children, but pregnancy/breastfeeding had too great a negative impact on my life.
