“Some Men Get Pregnant”
In 2014 the Midwives Alliance of North America updated their website to be more “inclusive” of transgender people by removing all references to mothers being women, and now calls them “pregnant people” or “birthing individuals” because in their mind, “men” can be pregnant too.638
Another midwife organization, Woman-Centered Midwifery, denounced the move, posting an open letter reading, “We know as midwives that biological sex occurs at the level of our DNA and the gametes we produce, and is immutable.” While acknowledging, “gender is cultural and gender norms vary across the globe,” they pointed out that, “Sex is natural, biological and objectively factual,” and “Human beings, like the majority of other mammals, are sexually dimorphic. i.e. there are two distinct biological sexes.”639
It went on to say, “by embracing the idea that any human other than those in a class called women carry offspring to term, give birth to them and nurse them, we are prioritizing gender identity over biological reality,” and that, “We are allowing gender identity to be the primary way that we refer to one another, even for a biological process like birth.”640
“The very few gender-identified males that have given birth or accessed an abortion have only done so because they are female-bodied people, and that scientific fact cannot be erased… We must fight the forces destroying the living material world and telling us that cultural distractions are more real than life itself. There is life-giving power in female biology. As midwives we protect the lives of the life-givers: women, mothers, females, and their offspring. We must not become blinded to the biological material reality that connects us.”641
The British Medical Association has declared that the term “expectant mothers” is offensive to transgender people, and insists they be called “pregnant people” instead because some “men” can get pregnant too.642 The British government then recommended an amendment to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, a UN treaty, to reflect the “more inclusive” language because “It’s not women who get pregnant — it’s ‘people.’”643
When a Planned Parenthood clinic tweeted out that “Some men have a uterus,” the post was celebrated by Leftists online and was “liked” over 63 thousand times.644 One clothing company even sells “gender neutral” maternity wear, because “not all pregnant people are women.”645 It’s probably only a matter of time before major retailers like Target and Walmart start carrying maternity clothes for “men.”
In April 2017 the Dove soap company put out a commercial featuring “real moms” called “No Right Way,” showing new moms with their babies and praising the ‘diversity’ in how they were raising them. “We are both his biological parents,” says a man who now identifies as a woman as he is shown rocking his new born baby. “You get people that are like, ‘What do you mean you’re the mom?’ We’re like, ‘Yep! We’re both gonna be moms.’”646
Facebook suspended me for a week and locked me out of my page for posting a link to an article about the commercial because I added the comment, “Excuse me now while I go grab some Irish Spring [a competitor’s soap] to clean up my puke.” That was “hate speech” they said.647
“Some Men Can Breastfeed”
In our backwards world we’re now seeing articles from Time magazine (not the Onion) that read, “My Brother’s Pregnancy and the Making of the New American Family,” which is an essay by a woman about her “brother” who was born female but now identifies as a man, and who got pregnant and gave birth to a poor unfortunate baby who was then breastfed by its bearded lady mother (photos of this were included in the article.)648
“Americans are just starting to open up to the idea that you may be born into a female body, but believe that you are really a man. But what if you are born into a female body, know you are a man and still want to participate in the traditionally exclusive rite of womanhood? What kind of man are you then?” the essay begins.649
The woman who wrote the “pregnant brother” article has a father who later divorced her mother at age 50 and then came out as gay, so you know there’s something seriously wrong with their gene pool or family life.
The La Leche League USA, (a breastfeeding educational and support organization with more than 300,000 Facebook followers) wished “Happy Father’s Day to all the chestfeeding dads out there,” and said that they are “excited to support you.”650
What is “chestfeeding,” you ask? Their post went on to explain, “Chestfeeding is the term often used by transgender men and nonbinary people who nurse their babies. Although both men and women have breast tissue, the word ‘breast’ is most often associated with women. Trans men may be more comfortable referring to their ‘chest’ and ‘chestfeeding’ or ‘nursing’ their infants rather than ‘breastfeeding.’”651
It continued, “When we think about breastfeeding, the image that comes to mind — the one pushed on us by society, medical professionals and the media alike — is that of a mother nursing her newborn baby. Brochures, websites and PSAs promote the picture of a woman lovingly looking at her child as the baby suckles at her breast. The language accompanying this imagery is inevitably gendered, specific to cisgender women who are nursing a baby that they themselves gave birth to.”652
Jake Kathleen Marcus, a lawyer who is “the nation’s foremost expert on breastfeeding law,” suggests we “rethink” the term “Nursing Mother.” “The term ‘mother’ is itself problematic,” she insists, because, “Kids are nursed by people who are not their mothers all the time.”653
The Huffington Post is of course on board with changing the terminology because saying “nursing mothers” and “women who nurse” is offensive to transgender and “non-binary” parents. They’re not happy about the slogan for La Leche League International either because it is “Happy Mothers Breastfed Babies.”654
In fact, to call breastfeeding natural is offensive and “unethical,” according to The Journal of Pediatrics now. “Coupling nature with motherhood… can inadvertently support biologically deterministic arguments about the roles of men and women in the family (for example, that women should be the primary caretaker,” they claim.655
“Referencing the ‘natural’ in breastfeeding promotion… may inadvertently endorse a set of values about family life and gender roles, which would be ethically inappropriate.”656
“Men Can Have Abortions”
The brain damage-inducing website “Everyday Feminism” is upset that medical clinics and society as a whole use ‘gendered’ language when referring to women getting abortions, because in their world — men can have abortions too, and so can gender non-binary people because, “not everybody who has a functioning uterus identifies as a woman.”657
They published an article that is accompanied by a video of a woman from the “All Access Coalition” pro-abortion group who looks and sounds like a woman, but identifies as a non-binary person and was upset because when she went to get an abortion at the age of twenty, “The people at the clinic constantly read me as a woman and called me ‘ma’am,’ ‘she,’ [and] ‘miss.’”658
