Transplant studies: A bit hypocritical?
Posted on 13 November 2008 | Category: Uncategorized |

A recent study reported by MSNBC.com, reported that there is a higher rate of survival and less rate of rejection with organ transplants (particularly of the heart) when the donor is of the same sex. They think it is an issue of size of the organ, hormones, and immune system matching. The study was conducted by Dr. Eric Weiss of Johns Hopkins University, and presented recently at a conference of the American Heart Association.

So, basically, while they don’t want you to actually marry another woman, they want you to give your organs to one. Because if they put their parts into yours “medically,” I suppose it’s okay? In fact, it’s actually BETTER for you, than parts from the opposite gender.

While I am an organ donor (don’t get any ideas out there), I don’t know why they would be okay with putting another woman’s parts into my body permanently, while at the same time vocalizing repulsion and not wanting me to have sex in any way I see fit.

Swapping spit? horrible!

Taking out my heart and putting it into her body…okay?

That whole “the parts don’t fit” argument, just doesn’t hold up. They do fit…and they fit even better than parts in any other gender. Okay, it’s a stretch…but you get my point.

    Do I get another ‘gold star’ for being an organ donor?

    Props to organ donors!
