Yet again, a witness called to testify by Democrats during hearings on abortion laws, has claimed that biological men can get pregnant and give birth. (Article by Niamh Harris republished from NewsPunch.com) During a House Oversight Committee hearing this week, Dr. Bhavik Kumar, abortionist and medical director for Primary and Trans Care at Planned Parenthood in Houston, Texas, told lawmakers that “men can have pregnancies, especially trans men.” And this is the party of science! Kumar did not elaborate on what other group of men he thinks can have pregnancies apart from “trans men.” Summit News reports: GOP rep Andrew Clyde asked Dr. Bhavik Kumar “So can biological men become pregnant and give birth?” to which Kumar replied “Men can have pregnancies, especially trans men.” Clyde followed up, “So, are you saying that a biological female who identifies as a man and therefore becomes pregnant is, quote, a man? Is that what you’re saying?” Kumar responded, “These questions about who can become pregnant are really missing the point, and I’m here to talk about what’s happening in Texas.” “This is me asking a question and you answering,” Clyde interjected, adding “I’m asking the question, sir, not you.” “Right, and I’m answering the question,” Kumar replied, further stating “Somebody with a uterus may have the capability of becoming pregnant whether they’re a woman or a man, that doesn’t make a difference.” “Ok, we’re done,” an exasperated Clyde responded adding “This isn’t complicated. Let me tell you: if a person has a uterus and is born female, they are a woman. That is not a man, and the vast majority of the world considers that to be a woman, because there are biological differences between men and women.” “I Can’t believe it’s necessary to say this, but men cannot get pregnant and cannot give birth regardless of how they identify themselves,” Clyde asserted, adding “Why in the world would Democrats bring in a person whose title is director of trans care for an abortion hearing when only biological women can become pregnant?” Clyde then re-read Kumar’s opening statement, in which the Planned Parenthood Director described abortion restrictions as “inherently racist, inherently classist and fundamentally part of the white supremacy agenda.” Clyde then noted that the organization Kumar works for was founded by Margaret Sanger. “Margaret Sanger’s entire focus was to decimate communities of color through abortion to eliminate their future generations,” Clyde urged. “How many abortions have you performed in your lifetime?” the rep then asked Kumar, to which the doctor replied “Likely thousands.” Clyde shot back, “So as doctor yourself, do you believe you have terminated enough babies to justify Margaret Sanger’s beliefs and your continuance of her legacy? This is unconscionable, this is inexcusable, I’m thankful this is now criminal and I look forward to the day when life is again respected across our entire nation." Read more at: NewsPunch.com
