This is what autists actually believe.

And the radfems, funnily enough.

i once read a fanfic where hagrid was consensually impregnated by the giant squid

 

[Sanic]

I'm pregnant

 

[AnimuGinger]

This is so fucking stupid I can't even.

 

[DirkBloodStormKing]

This has to be some of the most autistic shit I have seen in a while. Only yaoi fantards, SJWs, radfems, and MGTOW/incel twats would think that this is not going to be kind of traumatic for men. Hell, there are lots of women who get traumatized by the idea of childbirth already.

 

[Pikimon]

I don't know if this will work, gay men have been trying to get each other pregnant for decades and so far no pregnancy

 

[SpessCaptain]

Wait if there was only one gender then what will fill our natural drive to create families and cuddle with?
Will everyone be gay?

 

[DuskEngine]

Will everyone be gay?

We could make humanity parthenogenetic, like those lesbian lizards that Chris likes.

 

[ZehnBoat]

And the radfems, funnily enough.

i don't think the radfems want this, it still requires them there evil shitlord males to live.

Parthenogenesis is such a cool word.

 

[Pickle Inspector]

In theory it's a good idea having artifical wombs since there are women who have various conditions that prevent them from having children or put them at risk from dying during childbirth. (Replacing things like womb transfers or surrogate mothers)

But like IVF you get crazy people like the 65 year old woman who thinks it's a great idea to have kids at that age or in this case people like Chris thinking it'd be fine for him to raise a child with the help of his mom.

The idea would never clear an ethics board. There are too many variables that can go wrong, with another life on top of that, and potential mutations that can be passed down from their children (this specifically is why cytoplasmic transfer aka 3-Person IVF was discontinued). The real catch though, is that there's no compelling need for male pregnancy; if there were, you could possibly justify the dangers ethically.

Inherent and implicit in any argument about male pregnancy is the impact it would have on the host's sense of gender identity. Calling it "male pregnancy" ignores the very real issue that men who identify as "men" aren't going to want anything to do with it. Everyone bringing up the idea of male pregnancy seems to neglect that such a thing would cause horrible gender dysphoria; either that, or they believe in the Tumblr narrative of "you can be anything you want". Or they don't understand that everyone has a gender identity whether or not they're trans and that screwing with it is asking for trouble.

"Male pregnancy" should be more like "transsexual female pregnancy", because the act of pregnancy causes the body to feminise radically and become awash with hormones required to sustain it. In fact, MtF hormone replacement therapy explicitly mimics pregnancy in male-bodied individuals. Your response to female HRT as a male-bodied individual is considered a litmus test to decide whether or not you should be on it; if you begin to feel more confident on HRT, you're trans. If you get sicker, depressed, and suicidal (like Alan Turing), you're not trans. And to most real-males who would get pregnant (in fact, I would say all of them), the act of pregnancy would be horrific and devastating mentally.

So, in the end, it's kind of nonsense to even suggest "male pregnancy", at least from the perspective of someone who is trans. If you would seriously consider undergoing male pregnancy, you're anything but male.

Not even the biggest fist queen could squeeze a baby out of their ass.

 

[AnOminous]

What if we abandon the idea of gender identity entirely and pregnancy and giving birth is just something that happens?

 

[XYZpdq]

Somebody should feed this to CWC so he can be stupid about it.

Other than that this is stupid and you might as well be concerned about with custody battles with the theoretical bigfoot that may rape you for as far removed from real life this is.

So what do they like install a fleshlight with a womb or something?

Keep it in a box.
