The sex/gender distinction of the 20th century and now deeply popular among LGBT+ circles in the 21st century was one step forwards, two steps backwards. Although it provides a simple "explanation" of trans people, it ultimately cements sex and thus patriarchy as the natural state of things. Human sex has always been a social concept with biological justifications applied retroactively and selectively. The proletarianization of women and advances in medical science lay bare the absurdity of sex and for the first time in human history create the conditions for the world-historical abolition of sex and male supremacy. As the proletarian revolution self-abolishes the proletariat, so too does the transsexual-feminist social revolution self-abolish the woman and transsexual. Down with cisgenderism!

    Will pregnancy be abolished in the future with advancing technology or will it just become something anyone is able to do?

    These are the real questions folks!

      Babies will be produced both in vivo in either endogenous or transplanted wombs, and ex vivo.

      There's been work into functional womb transplants, but the focus has been cis women. But its not really that farfetched that it could be accomplished in the near future for trans women, but I don't know if there's anyone skilled/knowledgeable enough to try it and able to get ethical boards to approve it.

      Personally, I do hope it is largely abolished. No clue how progress towards that is. Been a while since I've seen anyone who spends a lot of time advocating for it.

        A friend of mine actually emailed the guy leading research on womb transplants and he said that nothing technically prevents trans women, but the surgery is currently a very dangerous one and they only allow applicants that have a higher chance of success (prior pregnancies, fairly healthy, can produce their own eggs, among other criteria). He said once the technology matures over the next decade or so and the kids currently born reach the end of early childhood development they would be more interested in expanding the criteria
