at Duane.

Does anyone else feel like this is just wrong? I know I risk being not "tolerant" or not "PC" but, how do we discuss this without discussing morality? Not just the legality of this issue, but the morality? We're still allowed to discuss that on some level right??
I have a few questions I would like my lovely ppl on WB to address:

1. How would you explain this pregnant man to your child(ren)?
2. Does the fact that "his" wife can't physically have children justify the fact that "he's" pregnant?

If anyone wants more details on this story let me know.

Ok, what had happened wuuzz....
There is an...individual, who is legally a man, but was born a woman. Looking at her, she looks like a man (a gay man...but whatever) and lives as a man, but when making her gender transformation, she decided to keep all of her female reproductive anatomy. She is now married to a woman (who was born a woman). However, the wife cannot bear children, so she took semen from an anonymous donor and artificially insemenated her husband. Yes, she basically got her husband pregnant.
Now the couple was on Oprah after pictures were posted of the pregnant man all over the internet. The couple discussed how they had such a hard time getting a doctor to treat him because of his gender. You have to watch the videos to really get a feel for this. I have a link below for part one but there are 5 parts to the video.

i had asked about this at lunch and they filled me in. unfortunately i can't watch the video right now.

the way i see it - biologically she's a woman. she decided to keep her female organs so i wouldn't consider her a man - no matter what she looks like on the outside. to me she's just another lesbian who looks and lives like a man. if she had a complete sex change then maybe there would be an issue...but i don't know why the doctor's wouldn't treat her.

i don't know, i don't think there's anything wrong with it because bilogically she's still a woman. would i have done that in their position? naw. they're gonna have a hard time explaining it to their kids.

Well, this is what you get when you have folks trying to break away from their gender roles.

This nigga kills me. A woman, with a dik & scrotum, with child. Somebody needs to give her a swift slap on the ass and tell her, "You're a fukin WOMAN!"

The other one can't be helped at this point. She done already gave slim her mind. ...cause you know, once you get their mind, everything else follows. It's a wrap.

HE/SHE actually doesn't have a dik and scrotum. HE/SHE has an enlarged cllitoris because of the hormones HE/SHE was taking.
