DADDY CAN BE MUMMY Womb transplants could allow men to have babies ‘tomorrow’, claims expert
The Sun ^ | November 4, 2017 | Victoria Fletcher

Posted on 11/04/2017 4:37:38 PM PDT by EdnaMode

Richard Paulson, president of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, said eight children had already been born to women after transplants.

And he told a meeting in San Antonio, Texas: “There’s plenty of room to put a uterus in there. Men and women have the same blood vessels.”

He said the next step would to be trials involving transgender women to help them become natural mothers.

Such ops are not allowed in the UK. However, medical ethics lawyer Dr Amel Alghrani joined calls this year for the NHS to consider them.

Last night critics said transgender women may want to think of safer options first — such as using a surrogate. Julian Savulescu, professor of practical ethics at Oxford University, said the safety of the baby should be the priority.

He added: “It it is hard to justify from the perspective of using NHS health resources, or from the child’s own perspective.”

Docs hope to perform the first UK womb transplant in 2018.

In 2014 a Swede gave birth after receiving a uterus from a living donor.

They would have to give birth via a section, if all they were given is a womb.

Sorry, didn’t see this was already posted (I tried search, so apparently I didn’t use it correctly).

No, there is nothing natural about such a thing at all. This is Frankenstein science. That womb had to grow inside a real woman with XX chromosomes. Even with altering the shape of the hips to allow a baby to pass through, there is no way to artificially construct a vagina that can expand like that of a real woman. Never mind not producing the kind of hormones that would even permit a baby to grow inside a mutilated man with XY chromosomes; they just cannot be injected with the expectation of things to go well.

This won’t end well, and that’s all I’m going to say.

Stan:   I want to be a woman.  From now on I want you all to call me Loretta.
Reg:    What!?
Stan:   It's my right as a man.
Judith: Why do you want to be Loretta, Stan?
Stan:   I want to have babies.
Reg:    You want to have babies?!?!?!
Stan:   It's every man's right to have babies if he wants them.
Reg:    But you can't have babies.
Stan:   Don't you oppress me.
Reg:    I'm not oppressing you, Stan -- you haven't got a womb.  Where's the
        fetus going to gestate?  You going to keep it in a box?
(Stan starts crying.)
Judith:  Here!  I've got an idea.  Suppose you agree that he can't actually
         have babies, not having a womb, which is nobody's fault, not even the
         Romans', but that he can have the *right* to have babies.
Francis: Good idea, Judith.  We shall fight the oppressors for your right to
         have babies, brother.  Sister, sorry.
Reg:     (pissed)  What's the *point*?
Francis:  What?
Reg:      What's the point of fighting for his right to have babies, when he
          can't have babies?
Francis:  It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.
Reg:      It's symbolic of his struggle against reality.

Someone that mentally ill shouldn’t be breeding.
But liberals won’t call gender dysphoria a mental illness because it fits to many checkboxes they wish were true, like there being no real difference between men and women and what you feel is the ultimate determination of reality.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve already tried this and failed repeatedly. I can’t imagine how many babies they’ve killed in the process in the early stages.

Even worse, someone that gets so mutilated will then attempt to conceive “naturally”, trying to achieve pregnancy via “vaginal sex”.

I take back saying “Frankenstein medicine”, because somehow I suspect even Victor Frankenstein would become ill at the notion.

The scary thing is that Obama’s mother was named Stan.

Well, I said “Frankenstein science”, but same difference.

This is Frankenstein science.


Yep. Womb in a man seems crazy now but so did gender dysphoria being celebrated a couple decades ago.

The latter still seems crazy to me. Perhaps because it is.

Then again, the slippery slope started way back with Karl-Maria Kertbeny inventing the terms “homosexual” and “heterosexual”, and the notion that such behavior is a “mental illness” rather than sinful obsession.

I figured if they tried it at all, they would have done a transplant of a womb into a man, pumped him full of hormones, implanted an embryo from a lab and then failed repeatedly. Just because it’s impossible, it isn’t going to stop these freaks from trying.

Can’t possibly be good for the child. There would probably be hormone problems. How many children will get messed up by it? Frankenstein’s goal was more noble.

It’s my guess that we are about 20 years away from being able to create functional wombs, vaginas, penises...etc..from the bodies own tissue.

We inch ever closer to the ability of automation to work quickly at the cellular level.

But just because you can do something does not make it a good idea. :-/

The research dollars would be better spent creating new limbs and complete new faces.

I doubt it would work. There is more to growing a baby than having a womb.
