A recent viral video has put the spotlight back on the booming commercial surrogacy industry catering to gay men. While the video itself doesn’t seem as damning to your writer as many have found it, it is reviving debate on a topic too often declared taboo by the legacy media and the left-elite: gay men and surrogacy and adoption.
While data globally is scarce, data from Australia – where commercial surrogacy is prohibited – shows that 34 per cent of non-commercial surrogacy arrangements were for gay couples. Given that lesbian couples consist of two child-bearers, it seems reasonable to assume that the majority of those are gay men. Put another way, that means that gay men are 30 times more likely to use surrogacy than the rest of the population.
Another key statistic should raise an uneasy feeling in any observer: gay men show an overwhelming preference for boys. Heterosexual couples adopt children on a roughly 50/50 basis. Lesbians slightly favour girls, adopting at a rate of 60 per cent compared to 40 per cent boys. But gay men adopt boys at a rate of 80 per cent, compared to just 20 per cent girls.
By itself, those statistics may be innocuous enough – were it not for a steady stream of horror stories like this:
In a case that has shocked the nation, a gay couple in the United States has been sentenced to 100 years in prison without the possibility of parole for the horrific sexual abuse of their two adopted sons. The victims, both of whom have special needs, were subjected to years of unspeakable cruelty at the hands of their supposed caregivers.
Zachary Zulock and William Dale Zulock, outwardly presenting themselves as loving parents, concealed a horrifying reality. They systematically abused their sons, aged 12 and 10, recording their heinous acts and even sharing the disturbing footage with their associates. This revelation of depravity has sent shockwaves through the community and underscored the importance of vigilance in protecting vulnerable children […]
District Attorney Randy McGinley, in a powerful statement, described the Zulocks’ home as a “house of horrors” where their darkest desires were prioritized above the well-being of their innocent children.
In Australia, Mark Newton and Peter Truong were celebrated by the ABC as poster boys for gay marriage and surrogacy. In a story that has since disappeared from the ABC’s website (but preserved for posterity by citizen journalists), ABC journalist Ginger Gorman, who describes herself as a “social justice journalist”, employing “radical empathy”, wrote in glowing terms about the gay couple, including this line: Mark said he’s sure that they were under suspicion of paedophilia.
With good reason, as it turned out.
Queensland paedophile Peter Truong, who bought a newborn boy for US$8,000 and then allowed men around the world to abuse the child, has been sentenced in a US court to 30 years’ jail […]
Prosecutors say Truong and Newton bought the boy from a woman in a “foreign” country, believed to be Russia, and then transported him around the world to engage in sex with more than half a dozen other men, all before his sixth birthday.
After disappearing the story from the ABC website, Gorman went on to write an entire book portraying herself as the ‘victim’ of ‘online trolls’.
If only theirs was an isolated incident.
A former high school teacher sexually assaulted and smothered to death a baby boy he adopted months earlier with his partner, a jury has been told.
The court heard Preston Davey, who was pronounced dead at Blackpool Victoria Hospital in July 2023, had suffered 40 traumatic injuries over four months.
Jamie Varley, 37, is accused of killing the 13-month-old, along with 25 other charges relating to his sexual and physical mistreatment.
His partner John McGowan-Fazakerley, 32, is accused of causing or allowing the death of the child and four other offences. Both men deny all charges.
Preston Crown Court heard that in the final months of his brief life, the child had been routinely ill-treated, sexually abused and physically assaulted.
As the case of Newton and Truong shows, where commercial surrogacy is outlawed, gay men will routinely travel to foreign countries to buy babies. Often, impoverished developing countries. But the US is also a favourite marketplace, where laws are sometimes astonishingly lax.
A widely circulated video showcasing a gay couple’s “surrogacy journey” has revealed that a baby boy is currently in the custody of a registered child sex offender. The couple, Logan Riley and Brandon Mitchell, gained viral attention after posting a video introducing their newborn son.
When Irish citizen journalist Derek Blighe drew attention to the video, stating, “Unless a miracle happens, this child has almost no chance at a normal life”, he was howled down as ‘homophobic’.
Except…
But just 24 hours after the video went viral on social media, it has been confirmed that one of the men in the video is a registered child sex offender.
Brandon Keith Mitchell is a Tier 1 sex offender in the state of Pennsylvania, and was arrested in 2016 after attempting to solicit a 16-year-old boy for sexual abuse. The victim in the case was a student at Downingtown West High School, where Mitchell had worked as a chemistry teacher. He was 30 years old at the time.
A teacher, again. What is it with gay male teachers and paedophilia? Police investigation showed that Mitchell exchanged over 12,000 messages with his victim, until he suddenly instructed the boy to delete all their conversations. Police recovered hundreds of sexually explicit videos of a child on Mitchell’s computer.
In 2021, Mitchell married Logan Riley, a second-grade teacher from Maryland, and moved to Seven Valleys, Pennsylvania. In 2023, the two launched a GoFundMe to raise money for a surrogate, which Mitchell advertised on his LinkedIn […]
No where in the GoFundMe’s description does Riley mention that his husband is a convicted sex offender.
In November of 2023, Riley updated the GoFundMe with the news that they had successfully found a surrogate.
Pennsylvania does not automatically bar convicted sex offenders from having children, gaining custody or exercising parental rights.
While Pennsylvania’s adoption law does prohibits sex offenders from adopting or fostering children, gestational surrogacy circumvents any such laws through pre-birth parentage orders.
Pennsylvania is considered a “surrogate-friendly” state.
Child-friendly, not so much, apparently.
