Quote From: jewelsfOK, I've pretty much been neutral on this subject but after seeing an upcoming documentary that is going to be on TV I have to say something. Has everyone seen that man who is giving birth? Where do we draw the lines? You take a woman who wants to be a male, OK, that's fine. But then she also decides she/he wants to have a baby. Then he/she is actually willing to do a documentary about it. You see a man pushing to give birth, doesn't this look odd to anyone besides me? Pick the sex you want or need to be and then stick to it. You wonder why TG's aren't accepted? Does this really help the cause any? No, instead it turns it into a freak show. I feel that if this TG wanted to have that child then he/she should have been much more private about it. TG's don't want to be judged, yet they are on TV showing a man giving birth! Yes, I know I'm being redundant here but it just blows my mind. All of this talk about violence and not being accepted, maybe if things were done where society had a chance to get used to it instead of having it shoved in their face. I can't help but wonder how many people out there will watch this, or just see the ad and become even more judgmental instead of understanding. Shouldn't the wishes of TG's be tempered with a little common sense?
Are you talking about the man who announced his pregnancy on April 1, 2007? At least that's when the situation was on the news in Ohio.
Locally, If I recall correctly, the majority of people are waiting for the due date, others believe the announcement was a April Fool's Day prank and an utter hoax.
Personally, I'm waiting for the birth, but I am highly suspicious.
