Calvin Klein Hit With Criticism Over Pregnant Transgender Man Campaign

What’s the issue? If you don’t like it, don’t look at the image?

Remember when CK used to use beautiful models in their campaigns? I miss those beautiful CK models.

So passé. Where are the transhumans? I want pregnant cyborgs in my CK ads.

Men don’t get pregnant. Pregnancy is not part of the cis male experience, it’s part of the cis female experience.

If you are a trans man that wants to get pregnant, you lose your male card. At best, you may be non-binary, but you are no longer a trans man.

If I could afford Calvin Klein I would immediately stop buying it and I urge all LG people to do so to and help stop the spread of the Trans Scourge

Thank you for posting this OP and keep up the good work Gay Warriors!!!

How is it possible for their to get pregnant with the hormones?

by Anonymousreply 12May 15, 2022 11:53 PM

I wonder if they stop taking hormones for long enough to get pregnant then start taking them again.

I would think it's dangerous to the baby to be taking T when it's mostly female hormones doing the work to support the pregnancy.

Why does someone who goes to the trouble to "become a man" then decide to get pregnant and have a baby? You gonna shout down every word you don't like then turn around and do the one thing that defines you as woman?

I keep telling myself this discussion will go away like all fads go away. I’m starting to wonder, though. I might have to finally go so far as to look up what’s meant by “transman.”

1–Person born male who changed to female?

2–Vice versa?

I’ve looked up “cis” and the definition never sticks because the only place I ever see it used is when I read Dan Savage’s column, where each of his poor troubled sex-havers (or hopefuls) seem to need an entire paragraph just to describe what they ARE before they can explain who they’re hoping to bone or be boned by or piss on or break up with or whatever.

While I personally find it unconscionable that anyone would make a new child when there’s is even one left sitting and waiting to be adopted. But I’m sure that’s considered beside the point amidst all the excitement over the big issues such as whether or not this advertisement increases sales of Calvin Klein underwear.

Trans men are female also known as trans identified females. (TIF)

They (self-proclaimed men, or non-women) only temporarily stops taking T just to get pregnant. But it's still in their body. Later in their breast* milk too. Babies get exposed to the toxic mess from the start.

everything is planned division right from the start these days. men vs. women, straight vs. gay, cis vs, trans, right vs. left, race vs. race, religion vs. ______. classic divide and conquer, and ordinary people are too mediocre to even notice.

"When evidence forces certain people to reverse their position they behave is if they were right all along. I’m beginning to think their confusion is genuine—like they imagine their shift in belief must be due to the truth itself having changed rather than them arriving at it late "

Getting pregnant is probably the most "female affirming" thing you can do. How on earth does this not trigger this person's gender dysphoria? People with actual gender dysphoria (which is cured by therapy training them to [bold]accept[/bold] their actual gender) usually reject anything that defines them as the gender that they actually are. What can be more female-defining than getting pregnant? This is very confusing.

by Anonymousreply 44May 17, 2022 4:00 AM

The mental gymnastics to rationalize this must be astounding, it is definitely confusing. I’ve stopped trying to understand any of it. Now they will be raising babies. I’d love to get an invite to the gender reveal party. Imagine the poor SOB that has to break the news during the ultrasound. They is giving birth to it. Delicious.

2. Is it the non-pregnant partner breastfeeding in the picture a little way down the article? How's that working? Or is that partner just pretending to feed the baby because reality doesn't pertain to this arrangement?

[quote] Remember when CK used to use beautiful models in their campaigns?

What I remember about CK campaigns is that they have always tried to do the most predictably controversial thing possible, in order to capitalize on the latest moral panic for publicity reasons. It worked with the child porn-styles campaign and weren't they doing it back in the day putting a very young Brooke Shields in their jeans and having her insinuate that she was panty-less?

Everyone losing their minds here is reacting exactly as hoped by the CK advertising agency.

r44 It's no longer a "female" thing. Pregnancy, abortions, breastfeeding, etc. They have been successfully distorting the language and concepts.

No they haven't. Some crazies on social media (the same as you, R51, just different beliefs they're acting crazy about) are arguing to change the language. It has not been accepted by the mainstream and will not be. No need to panic.

r52 Is New York Times part of "some crazies on social media"? If this man is a "female", then by the same logic, that mutilated, mentally ill pregnant person is a male... or at least "not female". Hence so many politicians and other liberal types' desperate enthusiasm to remove the word woman (and female) from all these things.

R52 Only a matter of time, due to on-going media, government, academia and community organisations social inculcation of translunacy terminology, such as "transitioning", "transgender", "transman", "transwoman", "cis-gender", etc. As well as the normalization of men in dresses as "women" and men who demand to be called women because it's Tuesday and they "feel like women".

R37, ITA. I can’t believe they still harp on with the “assigned ___ at birth” horseshit. Sex is observed and recorded in the womb, as it is with every pregnancy, ever. A woman can’t just birth a baby and decide whether it’s a boy or girl regardless of genitals. Just another example of their lunacy.

R44, agree with your entire post. And I agree with so many points raised by every other sane reasonable person here. I would love to give credit to everyone individually, but I’m going to credit all of the sane ones who agree that ONLY WOMEN GET PREGNANT!!
