Empathy???? This is about the pathetically ignorant reporting of a non-event. A woman got her bobs cut off, a fake penis added to her and lives on hormones to make her feel more like a man. Then, she gets pregnant and the media reports it as a "man getting pregnant". I find it pathetic that the media would make it sound like a man had gotten pregnant, when the truth is that woman who had surgery got pregnant.

I don't know what "media" you are referring to. Everything that I have read or heard on the subject acknowledges that this is a transgendered individual who was born with female sexual organs.

Despite your hyperbola, no one has tried to depict this as anything but what it is.

Yes, your empathy for and understanding of transgenderism is underwhelming.

You mean when they title the article as "man gives birth in Oregon" then later deeper into the article that it is actually a woman, that what happened? No, a man did not give birth, a women that wants to be a man gave birth. She is not a transgender, because she kept functioning female reprodective organs, that makes her a woman.

He was transgendered before he ever took a hormone pill or had the first surgery of any kind.

You are gonna have a hard time pushing that one through. Cause SHE looked like a damn fine woman when she was visually correct with her genitalia. her dropping a kid goes on the verify that SHE is FEMALE. SHE might look male now, but SHE's still female cause males don't cant won't be dropping any kids anywhere.

If I put on a dress squeeze up some cleavage and put on a wig, the fact that I have already created a child with a woman pretty much verifies that there is some part of me that is male. Cause 2 females having sex won't make anything but a lot of noise and sweat.

And in other news...female bits and bobs still makes you a female. No pregnant man ever gave birth. If a beard was all it took to make you a man, my Aunt Bertha was in for a rude awakening.

That was absolutely priceless.

No he wasn't a "chick." Being transgendered means that one self identifies as a member of the gender opposite to that of one's birth gender. It has absolutely nothing to do with whether or not one has had surgery or is taking hormones to change the outward appearance.

A transgendered person who never undergoes any treatment to masculinize or feminize his/her appearance is still a transgendered person. To deny that is to deny the existence of the condition of transgenderism. I am sure that many of you would like to do just that but every major medical/psychological association in the world says you are wrong.

What does transgender mean?

Transgender is an umbrella term used to describe people whose gender identity (sense of themselves as male or female) or gender expression differs from that usually associated with their birth sex. Many transgender people live part-time or full-time as members of the other gender. Broadly speaking, anyone whose identity, appearance, or behavior falls outside of conventional gender norms can be described as transgender. However, not everyone whose appearance or behavior is gender-atypical will identify as a transgender person.

Skip the mental crap...We're talking about GETTING PREGNANT...

I don't care if this chick thought she was a guy, an owl, a phonebook, a can of Lysol, or windshield washer fluid...

Science says she's a chick, and being a chick is a requirement for getting pregnant...
