English term or phrase: virtually anything goes
So often when the subject of surrogacy is treated by the mainstream media, almost the exclusive focus is on the gift of life.
Here's some infertile couple that desperately wants to have a child, has been unsuccessful in attempts to do so.
And here is this wonderful altruistic, caring, loving woman that agreed to serve as a surrogate for them.
It's known throughout the world as the wild west of third-party reproduction and is also the reason why the United States is second only to India in supply of surrogates; because it's virtually anything goes.
