The British Medical Association has said pregnant women should not be called "expectant mothers" as it could offend transgender people.

Instead, they should call them "pregnant people" so as not to upset intersex and transgender men, the union has said.

I find this incredibly offensive. Transgenders need counseling. There is help out there for them if they truly want to 'change' (John 3).

Dumbest remark I’ve heard this year so far.
These are the same people who wish to outlaw celebrating Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. There obviously is a difference to the sexes, otherwise why are transsexuals trying to change themselves? What would be the point?

Ha, ha, ha. But in all seriousness, someone please contact the British Medical Association. They have been hacked by Montey Python!

I’ll call ‘em any damn thing I want to; and the British Medical Association can go piss up a rope.

Seriously—Who wants to be treated by any medical “professional” that accepts this non-scientific nonsense?

My daughter took her children to a playground the other day, and a boy started playing with my grandson’s ball. My bossy granddaughter (almost 3) was offended by the boy touching her baby brother’s toy, so she told him to put down the ball because it is xxxx’s ball. My daughter intervened and told Zzzzz to “Let him play. XXxx isn’t playing with it. It’s ok for someone else to.” The children went off to play. The boy’s mother marched over and informed, “How dare you call my child a boy! My child has not yet decided what gender to be!!!” I’m not sure how daughter responded, but she texted me soon thereafter saying, “This really just happened . . .” She said the child is obviously a boy. And the child is a military dependent. Ugh.

The British Medical Association has said pregnant women should not be called “expectant mothers”.

Instead, they should be referred to as “Temporarily Rotund People”.

This will avoid the possibility of upsetting cross dressers, faggots, lesbos and other perverts.

The world has gone mad. . . .just like the Bible said it would. We know the end of the story here on earth. Get ready...God may give Jesus the go ahead soon to come for His Church.. .or we may have to endure more of this perversion and probably worse. http://patburt.com

Transgenderism is the ultimate epitome of feelings being the arbiter of reality. A man feels like a woman, he’s to be treated as a woman, biology be darned and outright condemned.

But if he thinks he’s a vampire or chair, we still recognize that dysphoria as mental illness.

[it might offend transgender people]

It’s time for people of reason to take back the dialog.

Bull$hit. Men who chopped their dicks off can’t be mothers.

Symbolic of his struggle against reality.

The whole "call me Loretta" joke in Life of Brian used to be absurdist humor. Now it is absurdist reality.

Men can’t be mothers, I don’t care what their mental illness has them claiming otherwise.

Didn’t the doctor tell her as soon as it was delivered? Was she paying attention during countless diaper changes? Sex is set at conception. It isn’t a personal decision.
