Are you implying the CDC is using covert and insidious science to implement the trans agenda?
I was just reading an article where biological men are capable of lactating, it's only a google search away. ext

What is the point of saying "ignore the sources from the OP", if you are just going to add the same sources to your comment?

Still does not answer the question you were asked, but I'm used to it at this point

Nothing unfair about a question regarding your comment, it only seems that way to someone who doesn't want to answer a direct question.

Those were not the ones I was referring to.
If you were to pay attention to your own reply, you said "Skip the foxnews and other sources from the OP", which includes the ones that you then linked in your reply.
Why go about saying to ignore them, then comment them yourself?

Nothing to twist in your owns words you said "and other sources", those were the other sources in the OP.
Try to keep up bud

No confused tangent, just trying to keep you accountable for your words. If you didn't mean all of the sources you shouldn't have said "and other sources" when referring to the op.

So then we should expect you to never use another source, other than the CDC, if you want to be taken serious form now on?
Can do

No, I'm not implying such, but it seems that you are inferring such.
I am outright stating that the CDC failed to address the subject of male "chestfeeding" in the transgender population.
And I am noting that in the past, covert and insidious tactics have been used to implement the trans agenda without opportunity for public input or objection.
I will further state that such tactics are known to be SOP for trans activists. (I just tried to find the report I read, but I could not find it.)

Well, of course! Male lactation is a thing. Many infants -- both male and female -- temporarily produce and secrete breastmilk, often known as "Witches Tears." It's been known to happen during puberty as well -- both males and females. I believe the first I heard of it was from the Bible, in which a man (Mordecai if I remember correctly), reportedly breastfed his child after his wife became ill.
However, it is not the same healthful and nutritious substance that mother's produce naturally, although I could only find one study which actually compared nutrients -- micronutrients to be specific; fats, proteins and electrolytes -- and found that the milk produced by males was most similar to colostrum. Other medical studies have shown that a mother's natural breastmilk changes in composition to cater to the growing infant's needs. In other words, the breastmilk produced pre-term, at-term, and post-term, differs in nutrients and composition. The milk produced at birth, at three months and at six months will all differ.
A couple reports I read regarding "chestfeeding" within the transgender community shows that it's not universally accepted even within the community for the reasons stated above. Many are adamant that male chestfeeding should not be used for sustenance for the child, but could be valuable for bonding and nurturing (not nourishing, but nurturing and comforting) between a male transgender parent and the child.

Is this based on fact or just your, all knowing, opinion?
Fox news can be a very credible source for a lot of things. You just have to understand that they aren't a left wing echo chamber all the time as you would want them to be.

Fox news is the originating source, then you go to the CDC for more info, why do people not realize that.
