Transgender woman is accused of ‘abuse’ after revealing she’s breastfeeding her wife’s newborn – having taken hormones to stimulate milk production – as critics slam her for doing ‘sick experiment’ on an infant
A transgender woman is being blasted online after she revealed that she is breastfeeding her wife’s newborn daughter, having taken a regimen of hormones to try and stimulate her milk production ahead of the baby’s birth.
After opening up about her experience on Reddit, the unnamed woman – who is understood to be based in the U.S. – was met with bitter backlash from social media users who branded it ‘unnatural’ and ‘sick’ for her to breastfeed the baby, both because she was born a male and because she needed to take hormones in order to begin lactating in the first place.
The woman, whose username is AdmiralFisticuffs, explained that she worked with a lactation consultant and took a series of hormones and drugs to grow her breasts and stimulate lactation.
