Loki:
So, uhm, for the latecomers, what exactly did Jeph change? Did he just remove a "perfect breeding age" line that was there before?

Thank you.
FWIW... we required significant technical assistance to have our son. Both his parents are biologically female after all.
Had we known in 2000 that I wasn't a moderately Intersex male, but a severely Intersex female, I don't think we would have made the attempt. My male glands were only partially functional rather than completely nonfunctional for a few years of my life anyway. I'd been told at age 20 that the odds of me ever having children were at best 1 in 100. In fact, we now know that it was rather more remote than that.

Yeah, I mean, it was kind for Claire. I'm kind of split on whether it's offensive generally.
It's just maybe slightly uncomfortable on several levels that Marten's mom would be made broody at a gay wedding and would unload this on Maten's trans friend. I mean, wat.
Also, Claire apparently passes extremely well.

Kind for a lot of clucky Trans women - some of whom are Marten's Mom's age, others in their teens.

Well, it isn't necessarily all that altruistic given that odds are I'll be infertile when it's an issue for me. :-D
