    Taking yourself off the organ donor list now because of something that might theoretically happen in the future? :hillary-disgust:

    Once I'm dead, I'm dead. I'll no longer be using my body, so I won't care what happens to it. If some trans man wants my balls or whatever, have at it, homie.

      My country (Australia) your tissues can get harvested for the pharmaceutical industry, which is not something I'm really comfortable with.

      Anyway I'll be dead so my husband can make that decision.

    I expect most organ donors fall in the category of not knowing about it beforehand.

    terfs should voluntarily undergo preemptive hysterectomy just to be sure

    there's no guarantee your womb won't be transplanted into a transwoman otherwise

      Uterus transplants are a thing for cis women but uterus transplants for trans women are still in the development and experimental stage.

          yeah they had a woman with xy chromosomes and no uterus (but not trans) in ireland give birth with a donated uterus. baby healthy, and they decided to go with it because transplant patients have given birth before with no adverse effects. its unlikely that this tech will be widely available soon for trans people though :\

          it would be awesome if they come up with a way to make organs with your dna though. possibilities endless there.

            They're getting there. It's ironically one of the few things that is easier to do in microgravity.

      Generally speaking, only kidney and liver transplants are thought to be retransplantable. But having said that, most likely the organ would deteriorate and age over time, resulting in an organ that wouldn't be eligible for transplantation.

    Letting families be shattered by extending the organ transplant list unnecessarily to own the libs.

    I would happily donate my womb, that thing has caused me nothing but trouble. Who wants a free womb? I cannot guarantee the quality.

    The caveat is that one of you has to give me your penis. I don't make the rules.

    I just want one so I can walk around naked and do the helicopter dick thing.

      You can also put sunglasses on top of it, wedge a cig in between the shaft/balls and boom - your dick is the coolest thing in the room.
