A birth coach has been ‘ostracised’ by her professional organisation after transgender activists branded as offensive a Facebook post in which she said that only women can have babies.

Lynsey McCarthy-Calvert, 45, was forced to stand down as spokesperson for Doula UK and has since resigned altogether from the national organisation for birth coaches. Her exit comes after transgender rights activists triggered an investigation in which Doula UK concluded her message breached its equality and diversity guidelines.

They did not expel the mother- of-four, who has been a doula – who provide continuous support during pregnancy – for six years, but threatened to suspend her unless she deleted the post.

Mrs McCarthy-Calvert did so, but resigned believing Doula UK had ‘acquiesced’ to demands from a small number of activists and failed to stand up for women’s rights.

So a bunch of men who think they can have babies have power over a bunch of women who don’t think that?

[Army Air Corps]

Thanks, Post Modernists.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

We all know the only legitimate women are men who “identify” as women.

What insanity! These people are severely mentally ill!

This just about as sick as it can get....

Remember that it was in Great Britain where Public Health England invited men who identify as women to obtain cervical cancer screenings even though they don’t have a cervix.

[Mrs. Don-o]

I don't think you're quite getting the picture. This is not a case of men --- actual men ---claiming they can give birth. This is a case of women who identify as, and present as men --- trans-men ---- who often keep their reproductive systems intact, and therefore claim they are "Men who can give birth."

Pregnant patient is not a man. It's a woman with bad hair.

Mrs McCarthy-Calvert did so, but resigned believing Doula UK had ‘acquiesced’ to demands from a small number of activists and failed to stand up for women’s rights.

She's right.

They have.

[bicyclerepair]

In times of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

Hard to believe that the Brits ruled the world not so long ago.

The inmates are running the asylum.

[JBW1949]

Lord, I’m glad I’m old and don’t have to see what’s coming...

[ladyjane]

Good grief! I am absolutely not getting the picture! That is gross.

Women don’t want big black hairs growing out of their chin.

Wouldn’t be so sure. British press covered the dude who told the woman to wax his balls as a “womyn” seeking a Brazilian wax kept his factory equipment but identified as female.

The world is becoming one big Monty Python skit.

Also the head of Planned Parenthood was ousted because she refused to see and fraudulently bill for fantasy services when transvestites (men as women) came in seeking pap smears and gyno exams.
