Pregnate man????

Thomas Beatie is known as being the 1st pregnate man, is expecting his 3rd child with wife Nancy. This headline came from People Magazine's online web site.

I'm not sure why, but I find this article to be amusing!

O.K., I guess I do know why I find this amusing, it's because the "preganate man" is not REALLY a man. I get that he was born a woman and is a transgender! I get that he underwent partial surgery to become a man and has changed his/her appearance to look like a man. But to say that "HE" is pregnate when "HE" has female organs is not true. I don't see what all the hype is about. Big deal, he/she's gay and wants to have a baby that is genetically his. Millions of people everywhere of different race, religion, etc... want to have a baby of their own. More power to them that Thomas and his wife Nancy were able to make a family for themselves. I think it's great that they were able to have a family that they want and that they were able to do it for themselves. I guess I'm just in awe a little bit of what all the excitment is about. Now if Thomas were actually of been born as a male, with all male parts, then conceive a baby, then I would have to give him some major points! But as always, the media has made something out of something that didn't need to made into anything! As a little girl I used to play dress up all the time. Once in a while I would put on my dads overalls and boots and pretend to be like daddy. Now that I have children of my own, that doesn't make me a man who had kids! Leave the poor family alone and let them live with their own decisions in their own life. Who are we to judge them and be critical of them for wanting to have a family of their own!

In conclusion, I think it's great that Thomas and Nancy have a family that they love and support! You go...guys!!! =)
