 Related to the concerns about commodification of the body are criticisms of what are seen as questionable technological imperatives, even apart from the economic incentives that may be driving them. Some feminists contend that practices such as pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, transplants of mitochondrial DNA, or gene editing are far riskier both physiologically and ethically than proponents admit (e.g. De Melo-Martin 2016). These feminists point out that long-term evidence of safety is lacking and that there may be unanticipated deleterious consequences of these techniques. These practices may portend far-reaching changes in our understanding of individual identity and what it is to be human. Whether law in the form of prohibitions or regulations should be imposed on these practices, or whether they are a matter for individuals to decide for themselves, is deeply contested. Some liberal feminists, for example, argue that individual’s choices about the reproductive risks they are willing to take should be respected, especially when they are striving to avoid disease in their potential offspring.
