Medicine Shakes Hands with Politics

And babies suffer

Feeding infants is no longer about the health of babies; it’s about pampering the feelings of delusional men.

The Centre for Disease Control has endorsed “chestfeeding”.

Now, if you didn’t already realise, bolting breasts onto a bloke doesn’t automatically mean he can produce milk. But if the bloke with his newly minted boobs takes a special concoction of medicine, lactation can be induced.

Hurray!

Women who don’t have a front hole can feed babies as if they were a menstruator!

Repeat after me: Trans women are women!

The only problem is that so-called chestfeeding is potentially dangerous to babies.

Boo!

Not as dangerous as using the wrong pronouns for a gender-confused man, of course, but still hazardous.

The CDC website asks:

“Can transgender parents who have had breast surgery breastfeed or chestfeed their infants?”

It answers its own question by suggesting that transgender parents take “medication to induce lactation.”

To mimic lactation, biological males can use a combination of drugs. This combination can include a contraceptive pill to produce estrogen, an anti-nausea medication, a heart medication, an antipsychotic, a sedative, and an off-label lactation drug called domperidone.

The problem is that domperidone has been linked to heart problems in babies.

The US Food and Drug Administration specifically warns that domperidone, an anti-nausea drug that increases the production of hormones, should be avoided by (wait for it) breastfeeding women.

The FDA website says …

'Because of the possibility of serious adverse effects, FDA recommends that breastfeeding women not use domperidone to increase milk production.'

So the very drug breastfeeding women are told to avoid is the drug wanna-be chestfeeding men are given to make their delusions of motherhood a reality.

But the CDC ignores the danger to babies in its rush to fall into line with trans ideology.

No-one knows the long-term affects of milk stimulated by domperidone given to newborns.

A biological male filled with hormones and a concoction of other drugs that could harm a baby should never try to naturally feed a newborn.

But the Left don’t care.

That’s not a baby on the nipple that a bloke with boobs is attempting to feed, it’s a guinea pig!

Breastfeeding mums are given all sorts of advice from doctors about what they should and should not eat and drink while feeding. The health of the baby is, of course, paramount.

But when it comes to blokes wanting to whack a bub on the nipple so that they can experience the joys of motherhood, the health of the baby is secondary.

The gap between biological reality and trans ideology must be bridged. And if babies develop heart problems or worse, well that’s the price of inclusion and diversity.

Medicine has shaken hands with politics. The emotions of mentally unwell dudes who want to defy biology now takes precedence over the physical health of new borns.

One of Joe Biden’s first decisions as President of the US was to appoint trans woman Rachel Levine to head the Department of Health and Human Services.

Levine last year declared that all debate over transgenderism was over.

Speaking about the use of puberty blockers and surgeries to treat children and adults, Levine told NPR …

'There is no argument among medical professionals - pediatricians, pediatric endocrinologists, adolescent medicine physicians, adolescent psychiatrists, psychologists, etc. - about the value and the importance of gender-affirming care,'

Levine is a dangerous, delusional, ideological twat.

(So are the ideologues at USA Today, incidentally, who named Levine their 2022 Woman of the Year)

The United Kingdom, Norway, Finland and Sweden - all once leaders in ‘gender affirming care’ - have all now seriously curtailed the practice in response to increasing evidence of harm.

But Joe Biden is undeterred in his determination to change science to fit the progressive left’s twisted view of humanity.

In March Biden said it was “just terrible” and “close to sinful” to stop a child changing gender.

What’s terrible and most certainly sinful is potentially poisoning newborns to make gender bender men feel feminine.
