"Human Milk" ffs

Not linking to DM (clicks) but an article on the app today talks about how one NHS trust has said that hormone fuelled milk produced by transwomen is equally as good for baby as breastmilk produced by women.

The director says the terminology Human Milk should be used as both milk types are equal.

In the letter, the Medical Director claims 'there is clear and overwhelming evidence that human milk is the ideal food for infants', referring to both breast milk and the 'induced lactation' of biological men

Ffs these poor babies.

The £££££ that has been thrown in faking shit for men so they can cosplay womanhood while actual disease and illness is left to fundraise for its own research is sickening.

Perhaps these (male?) NHS directors can allow their own babies to be sustained with this toxic, artificial hormone juice. Let's see how long it takes a male to pump 6 ounces of toxic sludge out in the directors living room. Anyone fancy topping up babies milk from the local 'Male nipple excretion' bank?....... No thank you!

I've never seen the evidence, do you have a link to that?

The evidence shows that it, unsurprisingly, is vastly inferior. Also, men on drugs can barely make enough daily for a single feed and that's without the traces of drugs in the fluid they produce.

To be fair, I donated to two separate milk banks after the birth of my 2nd and 3rd children who are now 16 and 18. The terms "breastmilk bank" and "human milk bank" were used interchangeably back then so I don't really have an issue with using the term human milk bank. It differentiates that sort of milk bank from something like formula milk available from a food bank.

But the rest of it about how men can produce adequate breastmilk to feed babies they haven't gestated and birthed - rubbish.

I'd assume an element of using the expression "human milk" was as an alternative for using the word breast, in some attempt to be polite. Not as a catch all for fake milk induced in a man's chest.

Honestly it infuriates me that women have bled since humans began and only in the last year are period products being tested with actual blood.

Yet in the last (say) 10 years the trans movement has exploded and all of a sudden we can lob off / create fake boobs and vaginas and breastmilk for men. Zero actual medical need.

It's a man's fucking world alright.

I find that shocking. Poor babies.
