Why on Sam's Hill would a woman transition to a man then want to get pregnant?

Having one's cake and eating it too.

Is a purely political act. I feel sorry for the child.

I've seen teen trans men plan out their futures like this "I'll get T at 18 screw around then get a gay boyfriend, get engaged at 23, married at 25, come off T for a year and have 2 kids then get bottom surgery at 30" just like the boy obsessed girls used to do at school. It's a kind of status climbing via relationship rather than career.

It's like these kids haven't even been told that testosterone could very well sterilize them, and that their uteruses may have needed to be removed by that point. It's fucking tragic. What are these doctors telling them?

Sounds like the 1950s when some women went to college/uni mainly in pursuit of a "MRS degree"
