Tech news magazine Wired published a story, and made it an editor's pick, on Thursday that claimed it was "immoral" to want children who share one's genetic makeup and claimed that reducing biologism could be a way to "push back against the biological essentialism built into white supremacy." In the intro, the author rejects the notion that having a biological child creates a hardwired relationship and bond between the parent and child, and that "this prioritization of biological inheritance ('biologism,' as some call it) has recently become unsettled." Writer Leo Kim said that due to the advancement in modern practices...

Buckle up, campers, because things are going to get even weirder this evening, courtesy (once again) of the folks at the American Medical Association. According to a recent report published in The Daily Mail, a representative of the AMA has suggested in the June issue of its Journal of Ethics that taxpayers could be put on the hook for a $300,000 surgery to transplant a uterus into a male patient to “subsidize” the cost of the very expensive and totally experimental surgery. And why would anyone need to do this? Two reasons. First, it could alleviate ‘psychological dissonance’ in the...

The Wellcome Trust, a private non-profit openly aligned with the Clinton Foundation and a regular participant in the Clinton Global Initiative, funded a study to determine if a donated cadaver uterus can be surgically transplanted into the body of a biological male.The study, published by the National Institute for Health (NIH), also sought to determine if a baby could be ethically, legally, and medically brought to full term with the procedure.It concluded that, while the procedure carries significant risk to the transplant patient, “The reproductive aspirations of M2F transgender women deserve equal consideration to those assigned female at birth and,...

It's uncertain whether egg cells can likewise be created from male human skin cells, but scientists are already attempting to achieve this, so that two men could genetically create a child, for instance. (LifeSiteNews) – Scientists in Japan have successfully bred a mouse with two genetic fathers by turning a male skin cell into an egg cell, raising ethical concerns regarding the technique’s potential use on humans. Katsuhiko Hayashi, a biologist at the University of Osaka, announced last week that his team had helped conceive seven “healthy” mice pups using two genetic “fathers” in each case, marking the “first case...

Be assured – once this becomes possible, progressive governments will ensure that this is part of taxpayer-funded health care. It may sound like an insane Frankenstein prophecy, but it isn’t. It’s coming. (LifeSiteNews) — Remember when we were told that the transgender debate was mostly about conservatives being jerks about pronouns? I think we’ve moved past that. For a couple of years already, biological men cosplaying as women have been demanding that the medical establishment address the injustice inflicted on them by reality and figure out a way to put wombs in men. Further to that, trans activists have asserted...

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...

In a medical first, a woman in Sweden has given birth after receiving a womb transplant, the doctor who performed the pioneering procedure said Friday. The 36-year-old mother received a uterus from a close family friend last year. Her baby boy was born prematurely but healthy last month, and mother and child are now at home and doing well. The identities of the woman and her husband were not disclosed. […] The feat opens up a new but still experimental alternative for some of the thousands of women each year who are unable to have children because they lost a...

The world's first successful womb transplant will take place next year, doctors say today. Dr Giuseppe Del Priore, from New York Downtown Hospital, has been given the go-ahead to carry out the operation and claims to have found a number of potential donors. Dr Del Priore said that while the would-be recipient would have to go through months of counselling and tests, if the right patient was identified today he expected to be able to carry out the procedure next year. If the operation can be perfected for humans, it could help thousands of women with Rokitansky syndrome, a rare...
