Redefining gender roles: hubbie gives birthby Michael Cook | 25 Mar 2017 | Another dispatch from the Wild West of assisted reproduction. Husband Gave Birth To His First Child After Wife Was Unable To Fall Pregnant was the irresistible headline in the Huffington Post UK.However, it turns out that instead of being a pregnant truck driver, a bit like Arnold Schwarzeneggers 1994 film Junior, the husband is a transgender man. The couple are actually lesbians, who married in 2013 in Ohio: Chris Rehs-Dupin and Amy.After Amys five failed attempts at artificial insemination, Chris volunteered to carry the baby. Although she was living as a man, she had not had sex-change surgery and still had her reproductive organs. We were fortunate enough to have two uteruses, they told the Daily Mail. Their daughter Hayden was born in December 2014. (No mention was made of the biological father.)The pregnancy shook Chriss decision to live as a man. Being pregnant is such a female thing and that's when I started to question that it was not what I was. Amy tried to breastfeed their daughter, but Chris eventually had to. However, she persevered with her male identity after the birth. She is thinking of having a double mastectomy but not bottom surgery as she does not want to rule out the possibility of bearing another child.In the meantime, Amy fell pregnant after another attempt at artificial insemination. They would like to have a third child. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------CEBID - Centro de Estudos em Biodireito AMBIENTE JURIDICODireito ao desenvolvimento existe, desde que sustentavel ambientalmente25 de fevereiro de 2017, 8h00Por Gabriel WedyA preocupacao com o desenvolvimento sustentavel vem de longe. A deterioracao ambiental foi o principal foco do chamado Clube de Roma, na decada de 1970. O grupo, liderado por Dennis Meadows, elaborou um documento de impacto na comunidade internacional chamado Os Limites do Crescimento. Em sintese, a conclusao do documento e que a taxa de crescimento demografico, os padroes de consumo e a atividade industrial eram incompativeis com os recursos naturais. A solucao para esse impasse seria a estabilizacao economica, populacional e ecologica. O texto gerou grande polemica e foi atacado pelos setores defensores do desenvolvimento economico tradicional. Todavia, foi defendido por ambientalistas no sentido da busca de um desenvolvimento sustentavel e compativel com a protecao do meio ambiente[1].Os sociologos Dunlap e Liere, por sua vez, realizaram importante estudo em que fizeram constar uma visao global emergente, a qual eles chamaram de novo paradigma ambiental (New Environmental Paradigm NEP). Os elementos mais importantes desse novo paradigma ambiental foram o reconhecimento dos limites do crescimento, a preservacao do equilibrio da natureza e a rejeicao da nocao antropocentrica de que a natureza existe apenas para o uso humano[2]. A esses elementos, acrescentaram em posterior estudo mais dois: a rejeicao do excepcionalismo (no sentido de que os homens nao sao sujeitos a restricoes naturais) e o potencial para mudancas ambientais catastroficas ou ecocrises[3].O conceito de direito ao desenvolvimento sustentavel restou moldado conjuntamente, entretanto, pela Declaracao de Estocolmo (1972), pela Estrategia Mundial de Conservacao (1980), pela Carta Mundial da Natureza (1982) e,
