Stories about \u201cmen\u201d giving birth are becoming pass\u00e9, despite their inherent untruth. We are either no longer shocked or we are simply fatigued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Media serve a constant diet of the outworking of rainbow ideology, uncritically. Much of society is indoctrinated, especially the young.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The latest tale of seemingly defying biology is of two Melbourne women, one of whom, Kim Lee, claims to be a man who has just had a baby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Her (or, according to preferred pronouns, \u201chis\u201d) wife is July Lies (pronounced Julie Lees).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After July was unable to become pregnant through IVF, Lee decided to dial back her testosterone injections so her body could function naturally again allowing her to fall pregnant. Both women created embryos with the help of at least one sperm donor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both Lee and Lies are listed as \u201cparents\u201d on baby Morgan\u2019s birth certificate. Morgan has no father, and it would presumably be offensive for him (or is it \u201cher\u201d as rainbow ideology deems assigning gender to babies presumptuous) to refer to Lee as his or her mother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Confused? Not as much as a new rainbow generation cut adrift from biological parents and biological reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The couple\u2019s obstetrician, Dr Scott Shemer at the Royal Women\u2019s Hospital\u2019s Frances Perry House said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe shape of families coming to see me is so different now; I see in my waiting room now we have three surrogates, I\u2019m looking after so many single patients who come in with sperm donors, there are more women in their 40s and 50s with egg donors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSociety puts so many barriers on who can access pregnancy care. We have this vision of a family behind a white picket fence, mum, dad and two healthy kids. It\u2019s just very, very different now and every person deserves the right to create the family they want. We need to make this visible.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The lengthy feature story of Lee and Lies does not discuss the ethics of surrogacy or sperm donation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Journalist Wendy Tuohy, Nine newspapers\u2019 senior writer focusing on social issues and those impacting women and girls, simply assumes these are self-evidently good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tuohy seems to know nothing of the multiple parliamentary inquiries forced on politicians by children denied the love and knowledge of their natural parents because of assisted reproductive practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She seems to know nothing of the ethics of hiring out women\u2019s wombs and creating a commercial trade in human babies, a key demand of same-sex marriage activists who also want gay married men to have access to what Shema calls \u201cpregnancy care\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rainbow ideology is reshaping our society at a rapid rate with no discussion about the impacts on children and women who become gestational carriers for \u201crainbow families\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are even allowing rainbow ideology to reshape language and reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is embodied in Tuohy\u2019s piece when Lee says, \u201cI want the majority of the straight, cisgendered population to be reminded that we\u2019re human first.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For those who do not know, \u201ccisgendered\u201d means people who identify as the same gender they were given at birth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When were any of us asked to buy in to the idea that we are not manifestly male or female without the bizarre qualifier \u201ccis\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Do we really believe men give birth?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is time ethics, logic and science were applied to the political and cultural demands of LGBTIQ+ activists.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
