'Pregnant man' gives birth to girl: reports
LOS ANGELES (AFP) - A US man who was born a woman before undergoing gender realignment surgery has given birth to a baby girl, US media reported Thursday.
Thomas Beatie, who is legally male but decided to keep his female sex organs during chest reconstruction surgery and testosterone therapy, attracted worldwide attention in April after revealing his pregnancy.
The 34-year-old gave birth to a baby girl at a hospital in Bend, Oregon, ABC News reported, without providing further details.

Talk about an f'd up kid. "My dad breast fed me" comes to mind as some of the screwed situations that might happen in that situation. Absolute freak.

I pity the poor child being born into such a ludicrous situation.

I can't understand why homosexuals want to ally themselves with these wacked out 'transgender' weirdos. It only serves to devalue their own cause

the child has a mother (who has had a hysterectomy) and a father (who is male following sex change surgery). the couple want children and went through a process similar to the one used by numerous infertile couples around the world. their story is fascinating, but the principles that underlie their family are not that different to other families.

i would have thought you would be more supportive of this family than of a lesbian couple having a bably through artificial insemination or a male couple adopting.

this story made some wonderful headlines and looks like a breakthrough. but underneath the dramatic photographs and media circus, the issues are not new. the issues have not occured in this particular combination before, but they are not themselves new.

Still an f'd up situation. I don't care how you try to twist it with the "other coupe use the procedure" bullshit. An infertile couple doesn't have an outward appearance of "low sperm count" or "broke down uterus". Whereas this freak went to magazines and Oprah talking about how "it" was a pregnant man. I guess it's a good thing we have the "right" to be freaks. And luckily people have the "right" to point at freaky situations and call it such.

What bothers me about this is that "he" used to be a very beautiful woman. Why fuck that up?

Your compassion and understanding for people different than you is heartwarming.

Not.

Hate is NOT a 'family value.'
Feminism: the radical notion that women are human beings.

Wonderful news. I've been following Thomas and his pregnancy ever since he announced it in April.

Congrats to him and Nancy. I hope the bub is doing well.

Not.
How far do you want to go with your alleged tolerance for people 'different than you'?

Do you want to include pedophiles, bestialists, mentally insane??

Yet again your hypocrisy is entirely transparent.

And this poor child is being born into a freak show through no fault of its own.
