Considering how many trans people who are assigned female at birth get hysterectomies (tissue that would otherwise be discarded), maybe there could be a "give a uterus, take a uterus" matching program...
- tredre3 2y agoMaybe I'm missing the point you're trying to make but people who get hysterectomies aren't doing it for fun, they're doing it because the organ is diseased so giving it to someone else wouldn't work.
- kgwgk 2y agoAmong those "trans people who are assigned female at birth" who "get hysterectomies" how many would you say are doing it because the organ is diseased. (Not that the proposal is practical, of course.)
- throwawayk7h 2y agoThis is not true; trans men get hysterectomies for different reasons than that it is diseased.
- spondylosaurus 2y agoYep, and many cis women will remove completely non-diseased uteruses as a form of permanent birth control :P
