[Slinky Sarah]

[laracomps]

meeeeee

 

[Jade&Evie]

I wanna see if they explain how someone with a vagina is a man...

I know some people would say it is because he/she has lived as a man for X amount of years but to be getting knocked up isn't living like a man

I think the media has spun this one a lot- clever and pyschologically interesting but not a biological miracle!

 

[daftscotslass]

Yup I think it will be interesting. If I remember rightly his (female) partner has fertility problems so she couldn't carry their child so they decided he would carry their children before gender reassignment surgery.

makes me wonder if that'll still go ahead.

After giving birth/producing mil etc I have a hell of a lot more respect for my body as a woman's body. The whole thing amazed me really about what I could do.

I think it must be very hard to do all that and then become a man

 

[Suzie and Faith]

It makes me a bit stressed because he isn't a man as such.
If he has lady bits then he is not a man per se and therefore it is not a man having a baby. LOL. Can you tell the technicality bugs me?

I'm going to watch it though should be interesting

I heard today that he/she is pregnant again

 

[Sugarhigh]

twas in paper a few weeks ago, you'd think with the media and death threats 1st time round they wouldnt do it again

 

[Flame]

I actually quite enjoyed watching that. Wasnt weird or anything. I only wonder what the oddment of hormones may have done to the baby.

Exactly. I couldn't care less about their gender issues but they did seem to be media tarts which I feel has more ramifications for the baby's future. I didn't really like them, but the vitriol of the idiots on the Youtube videos was baffling

I was more upset by the mum pumping herself full of hormones so she could breastfeed than the man giving birth quite naturally. They were both former bodybuilders and didn't appear averse to messing aournd with the chemicals in their bodies.

i found it really interesting and it explained a few things, but then i dont see a problem with what they are doing
