The first human womb transplant - with Richard Smith and Isabel Quiroga

[@remyrdd]

Je vais me permettre un commentaire enthousiaste avant d'avoir terminé de visionner cette présentation, juste pour équilibrer un peu les quelques trolls réactionnaires déjà de sortie. Merci. Merci de votre investissement dans cette aventure et félicitations. Merci de travailler à offrir à cette chirurgie une chance d'exister contre vents moralisateurs et marées patriarcales. Merci de prendre le temps de sensibiliser à ses applications nombreuses face à de trop nombreuses personnes incapable de les concevoir. Courage aussi.

Well said ❤

Wanting to have kids is one of the most fundamental important human instincts, it's bizarre how many people in the comments are foaming at the mouth over the prospect of helping people.

👩‍⚕️👍 A remarkable medical research breakthrough offering hope to those women suffering from such conditions! But one should be careful about this kind of organ transplants being misused for commercial purposes. Also, long term health safety of the recipient of the transplant needs more research across wide number of cases. This being a new medical operation first of its kind - many people may find it strange and scary in religious ethical terms. They are of conservative mindsets. But, I suport futuristic innovations of human sciences and technologies which can be used for the collective good! Great Work! 🤰🤱

[@Quartzite]

Robert Edwards, Jean Purdy and Patrick Steptoe would have been proud of what science has achieved now.

[@VovelPunch]

Fascinating🤔

[@MaxWattage]

Someday this will help bring joy to so many women, and let them bring new life into the world. 😃 Thank you for all your efforts to advance medical care. Pioneering medical science is always difficult and slow, not least because of the drag-anchor of the backward-thinking elements of our society.

[@asdfasdf-dd9lk]

@@blueskythinking6674 by that line of thought nobody can ever say they're forward thinking. Go have a cup of tea and read a nice book or something, getting worked up online about something which could help others for very little reason isn't nice.

[@blueskythinking6674]

@asfasdf, Don't tone police me. I will not let you people monopolize and dominate the discourse. You do not like free speech.

[@Tsumami__]

Where can I sign up to give mine away

[@remyrdd]

This one might be tricky. Any surgery that sterilize a woman is usualy highly controlled and not in the good way. Typically, if percieved as "young", you would had at least some kind of psychiatric screening just to be sure that you don't want any kid will never or already had "enough". Check your country's law's and get maybe some help to navigate them if you want to donate.

[@SirHargreeves]

The depopulation psyop has got you good.

[@f.r.i.e.n.d.s.forlyf9748]

Why dont people just adopt which would help already suffering children a lot. This is just absurd

[@mmdrodrigues]

Wow, I suppose this will make defining what a woman is even harder, like we aren't against the ropes already. Interesting from a medical perspective standpoint, troubling from a culture war perspective.

[@alexsnow3319]

Troubling for YOU. Grow up or get off the bus.

[@mmdrodrigues]

@@alexsnow3319 is the bus yellow ?! 💛

[@Tsumami__]

Manuel we know it bothers you that you find trans women just as attractive as cis women, but rest assured, neither of us want you, my dude.

[@Darth_Bateman]

It's not about women for those culture war people, its about not letting trans people have their due.

[@Rdgstarr]

Not that difficult. Human adult female with xx chromosomes.

[@alexandrustefanmiron7723]

when some sanity transplant, Dr. Frankzweistein ? "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should."

[@cornishmaid9138]

Why shouldn’t they. The same has been said, historically, about most medical procedures we have the privilege of helping humanity today. Particularly when it comes to transplants.

[@Darth_Bateman]

@@cornishmaid9138 Because he thinks trans people are icky.

[@ganondalf8090]

did you watch the video?? he explained the ethics of it to great lengths

[@Quartzite]

​@@cornishmaid9138Well Dr Robert Edwards was called worse when he tried to help barren women with IVF. People are gonna say things until they have to face it themselves, afterwards they tend to have astonishingly positive approach

[@alexsnow3319]

I'm still hoping for the artificial womb to work. Now THAT will be some amazing science.

[@blueskythinking6674]

Nah.

[@Gerry_Davies]

What about the health of the child? Pregnant women are harangued for every little thing they eat, drink, do, don't do ... yet here you are deliberately creating pregnancies that are dependent on the mother taking heavy duty drugs. That's before even considering the inevitable additional risks to a child gestated in a male body. Obviously it would be insane and deeply unethical to experiment on a child in that way. The lack of child-centredness throughout the fertility industry is deeply alarming. Also the 2010 Act is not called the 'Gender Equality Act' it's called the Equality Act. It's a very careful balancing of EVERYONE's rights, based on nine protected characteristics, of which 'Gender Reassignment' is just one. The EA absolutely does not say you have to treat a male with the protected characteristic of gender reassignment the same as you would treat a woman. Even if he's one of the tiny few with a gender recognition certificate. You've been had.

[@Gerry_Davies]

Also, look up 'physiological autogynephilia' and have a proper think about how far you want to facilitate the motivations of these men.

[@tatjanakane503]

As long as this is only given to biological women, not to men !

[@LeeAtkinson98]

Not being able to have kids is not suffering. compassion? well ditto, adopt instead - However endometriosis for example IS literally chronic suffering. I can only hope the results of this work bleed over into real issues

[@iampdv]

The title sounds like unjustified butchery. Why could this be vitally needed?

[@user-os1mx1ol6r]

As this work develops, I look forward to see the long line of "prolife" men waiting to have uteruses implanted in their bodies so they can become hosts to the all of the abandoned "babies" currently being stored, er "housed" in the -80C freezers at fertility clinics around the US. Except that conservatives have already been clear that pregnancy is not a choice, even when there are significant health risks to the pregnant person. So where does that leave us?

[@blueskythinking6674]

Woman idiot.

[@user-os1mx1ol6r]

​@@blueskythinking6674 That's a really smart come back, there sport.

Stop this frankensteinshit on humanity, this is all so not okay !

[@davidharvey3743]

Who are you to say?

[@davidharvey3743]

What if your mom had needed one to have you?

[@Sasadelmundo]

@@davidharvey3743 we should respect Mother Nature, all this is going in a bad direction, cyborgs and stuff is what they want, nothing natural anymore, it’s just so not okay..

[@MattyEngland]

Ridiculous. Waste of NHS money.

[@cornishmaid9138]

To you maybe. Groundbreaking medical procedures are what have led to everyday surgeries we all enjoy day.

[@blueskythinking6674]

@cornishmaid, took for granted you mean. This is much deeper than money you dumb people. You all just want to avoid the inevitable. It's selfish and irresponsible.

[@FocalLens-hk6tj]

The great need for advancements : is to reduce the efforts exerted by humans constantly in a single direction and rather replace it by Inventing something that saves efforts and lives with more and better probability of success in such complicated ' Surgeries'

[@papayne]

I cannot believe how utterly bankrupt society in general has not only rejected Gods design but have put the pedal to the floor with it. Once a great national institution has become a woke LGBTQ catastrophe. “Do not recommend channel” and unsubscribing immediately.

[@asdfasdf-dd9lk]

You could have said 'I didn't watch the video' and saved quite a few words. In the talk he specifically goes over how this isn't applicable for trans women, it's nothing to do with LGBT people and the fact you're kneejerk freaking out about it says a lot about you.

[@paulcoffey359]

Progress in health sciences is clearly is dead, given these are the critical issues that apparnely require such vast intellectual capital to complete.

[@ernstoud]

Please no. Don’t.

[@DesereckC]

Don’t what? Give women a chance to have children who without this surgery would be unable to, from women who are dying and won’t need it anymore?

[@trav1971]

Just because you doesn’t mean you should

[@RFC3514]

Just because you... can write complete sentences doesn't mean you should?
