This is nitpicking and honestly i dont see the purpose of this post. its clear that blaire is talking about sperm and not literal dna, and being a surrogate mother is literally a job that some women have. Surrogacy is not one of the cases where pregnancy is forced onto women. imo blaire isnt the person that gc community should be attacking, as she isnt exactly a champion of crazy tra rhetoric like contrapoints or anything. I quite like her content (yes im going to use the pronoun her because she passes) and the idea that needing a biological mother to parent a child is toxic

Prostitution is also a "job" some women have. Fuck off with this bullshit. Surrogacy is dangerous to women and primarily preys on poor and desperate women. Wealthy couples, including wealthy gay men, take advantage of this. It is not a job to sell the use of your body to someone else.

He*

I quite like her content (yes im going to use the pronoun her because she passes)

Just because he* "passes" doesn't mean he becomes a woman for it. The pronouns she and her refer to a biological woman. A biological man that "passes as a woman", is still a biological man, and can not be referred to as "she" and "her".

What's with you? GCs in the GC sub of reddit weren't like you "champions of crazy tra rhetoric" pretending to know what you're taking about when you don't and saying things like "he passes so he's a woman and can be called she/her".

Also, there are issues with surrogacy. But I'm not good at explaining and am just going to leave it to u/MarkTwainiac to explain to you, if she ever does
