I’m genuinely irritated by people who think uterus transplants and pregnancy will be possible in males.

Plop a uterus in there and you’re good to go, seems to be their idea, ignoring the shit ton of hormones women produce naturally to sustain a pregnancy and build that baby and the changes the body has to go through to make it work and the differences a female body starts out with.

It’s incredible that we’ve come to a point where organ transplants are possible, but they still fail and get rejected in the long run often while they’re simply trying to replace an organ that stopped working. This idiotic idea is trying to introduce a completely foreign organ, which the person never had, and they’re not only expecting it to not get rejected, but to fulfill a process their bodies aren’t made for.

Like ffs I read that there’s currently research conducted into wether cross sex blood transfusions (of women who have been pregnant before) could be harmful for men and they still got their heads in the clouds and think actual god damn pregnancy will be possible for men.
