“Men cannot get pregnant.”
That may sound simple and undeniable. After all, it was universally accepted as a biological fact for all of human history.

That has rapidly changed. Saying men cannot become pregnant has become a highly contentious statement to liberals and Democratic Party leaders in recent years, who insist that both men and women can, in fact, get pregnant.
And to deny that would make one a transphobic bigot. In fact, the topic has become so sensitive that Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson refused to even define what a woman was during her April confirmation hearings.
“Can I provide a definition? No. I can’t. I am not a biologist,” Jackson told Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., when asked.
“You can’t?” Blackburn responded. “So you believe the meaning of the word ‘woman’ is so unclear and controversial that you can’t give me a definition?”
It would seem that California Gov. Gavin Newsom didn’t get the memo.
At a rally over the leaked Supreme Court draft that hints the right to abortion may be overturned in the United States, Newsom said abortion access wouldn’t be controversial if men could get pregnant.
“It’s a heck of a moment to live in,” Newsom said. “But we will not be defeated. We will stand tall. We will stand firm. And we will affirm … the currently constitutional of women and girls, and their reproductive rights and freedoms in California.”

That’s when Newsom made his un-woke slip-up and admitted men can’t get pregnant.
“If men could get pregnant, this wouldn’t even be a conversation,” he said. “This decision isn’t about strengthening families — it’s about extremism. It’s about control. We will fight for the right to choose.”

Conservative critics pounced on the Democratic Party leader’s claim.
Someone quoted Kentucky Planned Parenthood’s assertion in 2018 that “some men have a uterus.”
