Honestly, I think that artificial wombs will be quite good for society.

We second this, as a trans woman, it would be really nice to actually have a child like any other woman even if it's through external means, or for women who simply don’t want/cant carry a child safely or are of parents who cant conceive/aren’t about to convince easily.

No, it wouldn't. It allows companies and states to mass produce human beings with whatever genetic variations they wish. Women are a very critical resistor to that kind of consolidation of control of our species.

I agree. Based on my secondhand observations, pregnancy is 9 months of discomfort in one form or another, followed by plumbing problems for years afterwards. Nobody should go through that if they don't wish to.
