Read all about it. A woman, who became a man, and then got pregnant. Choice really is our culture’s highest value, even when it looks just plain ole’ crazy:
Mr. Hope said he was worried the procedure, done with the patient in stirrups, might be a little “feminizing,” but said clinic staff acted sensitively to the situation.
You don’t say.








Talk about sensationalism! The Financial Post headline reads “Guys are having babies” while the National Post reads “-the story of a pregnant man”. Both headlines are ludicrous and just plain inaccurate.
My degree is in genetics. The parent in question has 2 X chromosomes and no Y chromosome. Thus the parent in question is a woman. Full stop. Perhaps a wildly unattractive one, but a woman nonetheless.
Headlines would have been more accurate if they had read “Woman with beard gets pregnant” or “the story of a pregnant bearded-woman”. Ah. But I guess the true headlines don’t sell papers, do they?
Actually, woman with beard gets pregnant might sell papers. But we are falling all over ourselves to use the appropriate politically correct terminology. And if a woman tells you she is a man, then dammit, she is! Apparently.
Oh, and Cynthia, if you could just stop being so gosh darn reasonable, you might better be able to get by with stories like these. 😉
