The CDC takes the transgender experiment to a new level

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has really outdone itself with its latest politicized health guidance.
“Can transgender parents who have had breast surgery breastfeed or chestfeed their infants?” the agency asks on a new portion of its website. It proceeds to do the best it can to make what is obviously unnatural seem natural to appease the transgender movement.
SUPREME COURT SHOULD CRACK DOWN ON COLLEGE ADMINISTRATORS WHO DETER FREE SPEECH
The CDC claims that women who have had transgender “top surgery” can still breastfeed with the help of medical providers. It quickly glosses over the hardship that this surgery creates.
In a prior section of the page discussing mastectomies for women with breast cancer, the CDC admits that these patients “should expect significantly reduced milk production on the affected side(s).” It explains that women who have lost one breast should feed exclusively with the remaining one, quietly acknowledging that feeding with a complete breast is suitable and natural.
In the transgender section, it encourages medical providers that women with their breasts cut off “may need help” with lactation. You don’t say.
Any woman who has this surgery to feel like a man only to attempt the motherly role of breastfeeding is a deeply confused, conflicted individual. The CDC could counteract this misery by telling women to embrace who they are as mothers and accept their bodies. But it would rather try to normalize it by telling them they can pump themselves full of special chemicals instead.
The guidance takes a truly dystopian turn in its breastfeeding guidance for men who identify as transgender. It recommends medication to induce breast milk in males so that they can pretend to be women by feeding from their nipples.
The Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine explains further in a document linked on the page. “There are many anecdotal reports and one case report of a trans woman ([male] on hormone replacement therapy) successfully inducing lactation,” the ABM says. “Bonding should be discussed as a benefit to chestfeeding and breastfeeding,” it adds, as if a man’s perverted behavior creates the same biological bond a baby forms with a woman.
One of the drugs men take to become transgender, domperidone, can seep into the breast milk that the child would drink. The Food and Drug Administration has said it can cause an irregular heartbeat in infants. Doctors have warned that we have no idea how else this off-label use of lactation-inducing drugs might affect children in the long run.

The CDC, however, doesn’t care to find out beforehand. Babies, like everyone else, are mere test subjects in the radical experiment of transgenderism.
