"What is Photodynamic Therapy Treatment(PDT)?"

"Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a treatment that uses a combination of a cold laser and a special light-sensitive dye (Verteporfin). This is injected into the blood stream to target abnormal leaking blood vessels in the retina (nerve tissue lining at the back of the eye which detects light and allows us to see) or the layer below the retina (choroid)."

"PDT is used in the treatment of some specific forms of wet macular degeneration and a disease called ‘Central Serous Retinopathy’ (CSR).

That hologram story is a winner. If you had to guess what country that happened in of course it would be Japan. The War Dept. had a good laugh over that one.

"If the baby has been born to a same-sex male couple, please phone us for information and advice: 01243 642122."

It is dizzying just how far we've allowed ourselves to accommodate this sort of silliness.

Do we have to believe that men can have babies now?

The collective mentality's warping. And it's the collective mentality which dictates what's right or wrong, sane or insane. Time to stand back.

Not that big a deal surely? People talk about a couple being pregnant when only one is and mention a baby being born to a couple where they used a surrogate.

*shrugs*.

[perrykneeham]

Not a big deal, if that is the case. maybe I've got the wrong end of the stick. To me, it suggested that it included people who self-identify as male.

What would happen if you were to say to a trans male on Twitter who was pregnant, "Men can't have babies". Visit from plod?

[perrykneeham]

Kids taken into care, certainly.

[Deleted]

Placed in religious establishments maybe.

[perrykneeham]

I think I'd rather take my chances in a Roman Catholic orphanage than the care offered by local authority lefties.

[Deleted]

Should be mandatory to put kids into care. All kids. Leaving kids with parents who could well be murderers, rapists, poor, bad cooks, and so on, is absolutely irresponsible and selfish. Being in care would ensure their well-being in an otherwise dangerous world. Unfortunately, care homes change from one year to another, so choosing which one could be a bit of a lottery. Still, better to have any care home than none at all.

Slightly off topic, but only slightly.

A lesbian couple here wanted a child, can’t afford IVF so decided to go it alone. A “gay” friend gave them sperm in a bottle, they, to give themselves a better chance, by use of a turkey baster, injected sperm into each other.

Both became pregnant, one had twins, one a single child, all born within 24 hours of each other.

So, triplets with one father two mothers?

I just read it as gay couples raising children. It could also be transgender men but either way still don’t see it as that big a deal for the reasons already stated.

That’s not what a triplet is.

And that kind of thing can and does happen with straight women and straight men.

Without the use of Turkey basters to boot.

[nobody]

Same father, same sperm, what do you think a triplet is?


And straight men get pregnant with a turkey baster, hmmm, interesting 

[mids]

I'm not sure if that's a triplet or not. Triplets can be 3 sperm fertilizing 3 eggs at the same time, a fertilized egg dividing in 3, or two eggs fertilized at the same time with one dividing in two. Traditionally the same womb though. I'd say in our brave new world of self identification, it's acceptable to call them triplets and anyone who denies their triplancy, like Vania, is a vicious bigot.

Dear god you really are that stupid aren’t you.

“one of three children born to the same mother at the same time”

Nobody said straight men get pregnant with a turkey baster you blithering idiot.
