In the "Transition" thread, a side topic started about uterine transplants for mtf transsexuals for the purpose of getting pregnant and carrying a baby to term. I'm sure someone who is more interested can dig a lot deeper than this, but in trying to determine which posts held water and which didn't, I did a cursory search for some uterine transplant history. Of the few pages I read at all, this one seemed to summarize the topic best. If there are factual issues with it, I'm sure someone who is interested in this topic will post references to expose them.

The ts-si link was a hoax. It was an April Fools that came a little over half an hour early.

The rest of it is all very good stuff.
