When good common sense and human biology 101 are thrown out of the window of reason, we are left with gibberish and nonsense.<\/strong>\u00a0Here, in a prestigious medical journal, the authors use phrases such as \u201ccategorized as female at birth,\u201d which in scientific terms, means when a baby is born and has XX chromosomes, she is a little girl baby. She isn\u2019t categorized as female; she IS female. In the same way, when a baby is born with XY, he isn\u2019t categorized as male, he IS male.<\/p>\n<p>First, a word or two about\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbc-network.org\/2020\/01\/lets-talk-about-uterine-transplants\/\">uterine transplants<\/a>. They are, for the most part, still in the experimental stage. To date, there have only been about 70 uterine transplants around the world and most of these have come from living donors. A living donor might be a woman who has completed her family and doesn\u2019t want to have any more children, so she offers to donate her uterus. The first baby born from a uterine transplant was born two months premature in Sweden.<\/p>\n<div class=\"Advert_desktop__1J5vD Advert_align__N0_fw Advert_placement__1I4yb\"><\/div>\n<p>Current practice is to remove the uterine transplant once the woman has had the children she wants, so that she doesn\u2019t have to stay on anti-rejection medications for the rest of her life. Also, the data isn\u2019t in yet on the effects to the babies born from a transplanted uterus, mainly because we don\u2019t have a large enough sample of these children. Babies are exposed to anti-rejection medications for the duration of their time in utero and are always delivered by c-section, which undoubtedly confers additional risks to mother and baby.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Of course, in this study, the transgender women reported that \u201cthe potential benefits of uterus transplant outweigh the significant risks with which it is associated and may improve quality of life, happiness, and dysphoric symptoms, while enhancing feelings of femininity.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There was much hay to be made when Tampax tweeted \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/life-style\/health-and-families\/tampax-tampons-menstruation-people-who-bleed-jk-rowling-trans-row-b1337497.html\">People who bleed<\/a>\u201d and \u201cFact: Not all women have periods\u201d and then doubled down with \u201cAlso, a fact: Not all people with periods are women.
