And then theres this little gem: (emphasis mine)
A "transgender man" entered a hospital with severe abdominal pains. Because she was identified as a man, the doctors naturally did not think to treat her for labor and delivery, so she tragically lost the baby. Rather than emphasizing the danger of placing gender identity over biological sex, both the journal and The Washington Post made the absurd claim that the hospital should not have ruled out pregnancy for a man.
Of course they shouldnt have ruled out pregnancy for a man because that would just be crazy!
"He was rightly classified as a man" in the medical records and appears masculine, Dr. Daphna Stroumsa at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, wrote in the journal article. "But that classification threw us off from considering his actual medical needs."
No, the classification did not throw the medical staff off, it was the patients insistence that she was a he that did that. You may be able to fool yourself and your doctors but you cant fool Mother Nature.
Its science
"The point is not what's happened to this particular individual but this is an example of what happened to transgender people interacting with the health care system," she added.
The Washington Post's Marilynn Marchione argued that this case should make doctors aware of the "blurred lines" in medicine.
The blurred lines are not in medicine, but in the politically charged miasma of society at large where the absurd and insane have been embraced and treated as normal by people who ought to know better.
Citing the journal article, she claimed that the case "points to larger issues about assigning labels or making assumptions in a society increasingly confronting gender variations in sports, entertainment and government.
Funny thing: assigning labels or making assumptions in a society increasingly confronting gender variations in sports, entertainment and government (as if those are three different things) is an altogether new First World problem. Because apparently we dont already have enough problems.
Thankfully there is a glimmer of hope that people are finally beginning to treat this newly embraced malady the old world way through DNA testing: XX, youre female, XY, youre male.
So when Mary Gregory had her titles stripped after blowing everyone out of the water and setting records for her age and weight class at a 100% Raw Powerlifting Federation match she was naturally upset. But officials were clear:
Mary Gregory, at her weight-lifting event the orchid nail polish would have fooled me too
She put down female. Clearly, shes not a female, said Paul Bossi, 100% Raw Powerlifting Federations president. Not biologically anyways.
In our rules, we go by biological, he said. According to the rules, she can only lift in the mens division. Im not trying to hurt anyones feelings but I have to follow the rules.
Do you see how simple it is when we just go with natures rules?
I dont care how much you love it, its still not butter

Forget “mother nature”: it was God:

Genesis 1:27
As every engineer knows, nature is a bitch. You defy nature at your peril.
Does this mean doctors will charge women for a prostate check and a PA test?
Insanity. The doctor needs to know if a woman or a man is being treated. (Why is there a branch of medicine called gynecology?). There are different diagnoses, treatments, and medicine doses. This is fact.
I know what will happen. The insane woman will win and collect big, while we get stuck with the bill. In the end, insanity wins and truth and justice are sacrificed on the altar of political correctness.
Funny how, when one secularizes one’s worldview, one leaves a massive God-shaped hole right in the middle of it. To the extent where one cannot speak for long about any matter of moral import before one is forced to refer to contrived deities like “Motion Nature” to fill that hole.
I was watching that Star Trek: Discovery show (actually not a bad show at its core, if you can look past the large amount of nonsense). Unsurprisingly, the narrative rests on atheist assumptions, to the point where a character is met with barely-concealed scorn by his own subordinates when he even vaguely suggests a religious belief.
Yet I was struck by how frequently the characters referred to the “Universe” as a personality: “The Universe wouldn’t allow” this, or “The Universe has a way of” that. They literally cannot help themselves but bring the concept of God back into the conversation, albeit under a different name, because what can the universe possessing of a mind and a purpose be except God? Almost as though none of it makes any sense without Him.
I thought today’s men could have babies.
Thanks for the thoughtful reply.
Even the atheists postulate a “big bang”. Although they don’t give credit to a superior intelligence for the bang, they do realize on some level, (even if they do not admit it), that the big bang itself is a supernatural event.
Where is the patient’s responsibility to inform the medical staff of any important related information, like her biological sex?
“Mother Nature” and “Evolution “ are treated the same as you saw: Nature designed the body to do something. But God (the ultimate Intelligent Designer) is scoffed at.
