One woman has told me she kept asking for this, but the doctors kept refusing "in case [she] want[s] kids later".

As you may imagine, she was not happy with such responses.

Jehovah's Witnesses?

Transition is also a medical treatment, it is used to treat gender dysphoria, as the only remedy we know to be effective.

If you feel like documenting yourself out of your ignorance (I doubt you will but who knows), here are some pointers. You can check each claim I make against the numerous studies and metastudies on the subject.

* Gender dysphoria is real and touches a non-trivial part of the population.

* Gender dysphoria poses significant hazard to mental health and can lead to suicide.

* Gender dysphoria almost never goes away, and when it does, it's mostly from external pressures on the individual (religious, political). In which cases, the individual keeps most symptoms (depression...).

* Transition effectively cures gender dysphoria.

* Very few people regret transitioning (<1%).

Thank you, you worded an idea I carried in my head for a while. Our world can hardly be considered "natural" anymore.

> Trans men having babies is not strong evidence for cis men having less of a desire to give birth than trans women. If you have the equipment for it, it's going to happen some percent of the time.

It's strong evidence that the desire to birth child has nothing to do with gender identity, which latter will be pretty much pointless by the time science allows human fœtus gestation outside the human female body.

> You'll be surprised to learn that neovaginas are also possessed by cis women. Trans men requiring vaginoplasty and receiving a uterine transplant are the nichest possible edge case, your "gotcha" is pure distraction.

> Trans women will receive the modern* uterine transplant operation, this I can state with certainty. Birth is done via C-section as a requirement of the UTx operation, the vagina is required for discharge. I haven't been able to pay attention to the operation for a few years, but it is clear that you are operating from uninformed conjecture.

> *The first uterine transplant was performed on a trans woman in Germany in 1930, Lili Elbe. This pioneering surgery lead to her death, as transplantation medicine was not adequately developed at that point in time.

Not all transmen require a vaginoplasty, not all transwomen have had a vaginoplasty or even have the desire to do so.

No biological male has ever birthed a child so far, so all that's speculation about what is or isn't needed from you is just that, speculation, based on nothing since it's technically not possible for now.

The desire to birth a child doesn't depends on anybody's gender identity nor anatomy.

Now stop trying to put people in boxes and keep an open mind.

Harmless is yet to be seen, right?
