It's not the original comment that affects me it's the comments section. I thought female erasure was a metaphor - not literal reality.

To think these campaigners are driving public policy. The comments section is truly terrifying.

Madigan never talks about that how hard it’s for women to go to college as child care so expensive

Never ever talks about the actual stuff that affects women

You need to have direct experience of these things to have a bit of an opinion on them - and be a bit older than 20. And not be a narcissistic, self-obsessed misogynist.

Where do you start with these people though?

Send them to an oh so progressive and luxurious reeducation camp?
(yes I went there. This is exceeding black satire for the avoidance of doubt)

Am sure women will be queuing up round the block to donate their wombs to the menz. Or maybe the next move will be sneaking it through the organ donation register.....

LangCleg · 11/09/2018 15:50

(to be clear - I know it's not possible, but even if it were, we shouldn't do it - growing babies in pods is preferable to attempting to grow one in a transplanted womb in a man's body surely)

And more to the point, we are nowhere near being able to replicate (and manipulate) the artificial hormone environment required for an external pod to gestate a foetus. Decades upon decades away.

And even if we could do this now, translating it to the environment of a hostile male body is never going to happen. You'd have to disrupt all the careful balancing you'd already worked out. And even if some maniac billionaire could find doctors depraved enough to try it, they still wouldn't be able to.

Mental health reasons for a CS are technically not recognised by the NHS. They are lumped in with 'maternal request' with no specific category for mental health which is leading to women being denied a CS for mental health reasons in certain parts of the country.

Exactly.
If women are being denied CS, why then should a trans woman get one as matter of course?

You can bet your bottom dollar no male bodied person will have major surgery, tend to an infant with minimal pain relief, schlep across the ward for some hospital food and deal with the indignity of a post natal ward.

I had a home birth last week purely because I was assaulted by a male visitor on the ward when I had my last DC. Fuck this shit.

Not that it could ever happen.

stillathing · 11/09/2018 15:51

How will they know which women have wombs though? In all seriousness?

TallulahWaitingInTheRain · 11/09/2018 15:51

This is what comes of spending a developmentally sensitive period like adolescence constantly plugged into the internet with a choice of avatars to (virtual) hand. The poor sods haven't noticed they're actually made of real tissue and stuff.

UpstartCrow · 11/09/2018 15:51

Ear tags. It's all been written down.

Here have a paracetamol and shut up.

Gulags will become the new shopping centres.

YippeeKayakOtherBuckets · 11/09/2018 15:53

Honestly I read tweets like this and I wonder if they are trolling or just thick. Surely an adult male can’t really, truly think this is happening?

RedToothBrush · 11/09/2018 15:54

Buy your own womb without the unnecessary inconvenience of having it installed.

Lancelottie · 11/09/2018 15:55

Confused Trans people can already get pregnant. Transmen are famous for it.

Really, though, I wonder if this generation are honestly so confused by the trans messages they're getting in schools that they think female to male womb implantation is possible, likely and indeed their human right?

It's a troll. Madigan even admitted it was set up to be a troll. Look at the wording.

Beerincomechampagnetastes · 11/09/2018 15:55

They are like a bunch of children in the dress up corner. The trans ideology just supports people who can’t succeed in real life.
They need a crutch an escape from everything. This in itself is not so bad if it wasn’t for all the morons who pander to them and allow themselves to be used as a prop in their little imagination games.
Every single one of them will self implode in time.
Could you imagine these assholes with a child...forget the pregnancy and childbirth part. They are so unbelievably selfish and narcissistic they are completely unable to put anything before themselves.
Lily is a joke and has absolutely no idea how awful her life is going to be if she doesn’t start growing up and taking responsibility for herself.

Beerincomechampagnetastes · 11/09/2018 15:58

What ^^ gulag said.

My sentiments remain the same, troll or not.
It’s all quite ridiculous.

littlbrowndog · 11/09/2018 15:59

Why the feck the women’s officer trolling ?

A lot of them can't tell the difference between reality and online life. I think in some cases it's inadequacy. In others born out of some sort of trauma. But yes a definite retreat from reality is a 'thing' I'm sure. Hiding behind 'transphobia' a nice little excuse for a multiple of things, which avoid responsibility. I think often it's about convincing themselves more than anyone else though.

Movablefeast · 11/09/2018 16:03

How can they be so simplistic in their understanding of human biology? They must be trolling. You just insert a uterus into a man and tra-la! you have a baby. The incredible complexity of what is happening to a woman's body to grow a baby is missing from the discussion.

Why am I not surprised that they are completely ignorant of female anatomy and biology?

Women are parts not a complex whole.

RedToothBrush · 11/09/2018 16:04

Why the feck the women’s officer trolling ?

To get a rise and reaction. One of love and sympathy etc from supporters and one that can be used to DAVRO and create a framing of victim Hood on the other. Both feed the ego.

Alicethroughtheblackmirror · 11/09/2018 16:04

Still., on the plus side, after the first few men have gone whining and moaning through the discomfort of pregnancy and the agony of childbirth, we may get a) more sympathy, nay, admiration and b) improved maternal health care.

Don't be stupid. It'll just be hard for men but easy for women. Resources should be taken away from women and given to men for this reason.

theworldistoosmall · 11/09/2018 16:07

I'm sure LM has already posted about this and was very excited about it then. A couple of months ago, around the time of becoming a women's officer. But of course, everything was then deleted because well, we all know why.

DJLippy · 11/09/2018 16:07

It's a bit insensitive for any women who are having difficulty conceiving if LM is trolling, no?

LM periodically brings this up. They know it's not possible. Because they get shown.

It's done to irritate the grown ups.

LM has issues.
