You may recall the pregnant man we discussed a few months ago, it seems he has given birth to a healthy baby girl.
You know, I saw that, and I thought “Now at least everyone will shut up about it”.
No offense intended, Antinor. 
I do realize that it will probably happen again. I mean, well, maybe not that person but another person in a similar situation might.
None taken. Just thought I’d let people know as a followup to the prior discussion.
Congratulations to them. I hope they can get some peace.
Actually, he was far from the first; he was just the first to publicize it.
Which, I suspect, will be awful for them.
This person is not a man; this is a very mixed-up women. You can’t change your sex just by taking a few shots. Also, last time sI checked, men can not have babies. Finally, if you check her chromosomes, you note that she does not an a Y chromosome; ergo, she is a woman.
I feel very sorry for this child.
Hey PharmBoy, since you know so much about this topic and seem to have it all figured out, maybe you can clarify something for me: everyone with 2 X chromosomes is a woman, right?
She is a woman that had an operation , she kept her female parts insides and modified the out side parts some little bit.
At least that’s the default assumption, for the time being.
And not every one with a Y chromosome is male; ever heard of Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome? Or are those people just mixed-up males?
And then, of course, there are those men who are actually XXY…
And women who are XY.
Edit: Oh, nevermind - I see someone else already mentioned AIS,
I cant understand why someone who professes to want to become male so badly gets themselves pregnant.
I cant help but think that the poor little kid is going to grow up with multiple complexes seemingly a case of Me first and sod if its going to be good to have/for the baby.
As I understand it his wife is unable to bear children herself. Now that they have a child is he getting his uterus & ovaries removed?
Probably not until they’re certain they don’t want any more kids.
Too unwilling to try adoption first? Although I know it’s difficult for homosexuals to adopt, I don’t see why someone who is legally male and married to someone who is biologically and legally female would have problems adopting. If he’s accepted as male by the law and his wife is unable to reproduce, then why not try adoption?
It’s always so fascinating to read these sorts of un- and ill-informed pronouncements on a board supposedly dedicated to fighting ignorance.
Maybe they wanted a child that was biologically related to at least one of them. Same reason that couples spend money on fertility treatments. If he’s biologically capable of having a child who’s genetically related to him, why shouldn’t he?
Honestly, when anyone decides to spend money on fertility treatments in the pursuit of “it must be genetically related to me,” I find it incredibly selfish. Personally, I’m not interested in children at this point, but I’d rather adopt than make my own because I know there are so many kids in need of adoption in the US.
There’s also an additional “you can’t have it both ways” thought that I have in regard to this situation. Biologically, men aren’t supposed to be pregnant, and this has carried over socially. If he wants to be recognized as a man, he should probably not engage in behaviors that would normally be exclusively assigned to women. I’m fine with people deciding their own gender, but I think this particular situation and the attention whoring around it is a bit ridiculous.
