Thomas Beatie Is A Pregnant Man

thomas-beatie-pregnant-man.jpgTHOMAS Beatie is a transman.

He is legally male, and has a wife called Nancy. He’s 22 weeks pregnant.

Eight years after having his last menstrual cycle he stopped taking bimonthly testosterone injections and his body regulated itself so that he was able to conceive.

Says Beatie:

“Despite the fact that my belly is growing with a new life inside me, I am stable and confident being the man that I am. In a technical sense I see myself as my own surrogate, though my gender identity as male is constant. To Nancy, I am her husband carrying our child — I am so lucky to have such a loving, supportive wife. I will be my daughter’s father, and Nancy will be her mother. We will be a family.

“Our situation sparks legal, political, and social unknowns. We have only begun experiencing opposition from people who are upset by our situation. Doctors have discriminated against us, turning us away due to their religious beliefs. Health care professionals have refused to call me by a male pronoun or recognize Nancy as my wife. Receptionists have laughed at us. Friends and family have been unsupportive; most of Nancy’s family doesn’t even know I’m transgender.”

Beatie is due on July 3.

    I strongly disagree with all of you.
    This wird woman, transgender, think is a man, but why if she thinks is a man one to have the woman role?

    What about the authorities? they should stop that pregnancy, this is not fear for the new generations, for the new baby on the way
    What about the doctors? are totally insane? the doctor who performed the operation to this crazy woman got pregnant, this is absolutely against HUMANITY.

    If this woman wants to be a man, she can do it but alone why should mixed up with an innocent baby? where are the institutions to protect innocent childs?
    This is against humanity, and if authorities don’t do it anything, we the people !!! must do something to stop this attrocities , who they think they are? Gods? how they can play with the HUMAN CIVILIZATION?

    Stop playing with gender, if you are woman, is because you are woman, and if you born man is because you are a men. UNDERSTOOD?

    Hi,

    im curious do you still have a vagina?? because if you just have a penis it will be imposible to fit the baby out of it

    p.s if you don’t have a penis that means you are female!!

    stupid Says:

    The media (that includes the web) gets more and more stupid. Just like the newspapers that try to changes the definition of marriage (it requires one man and one woman, anything else requires a new word in the dictionary).

    Here’s this woman (there is a pregnancy, therefore she is a woman) and the headline reads “Thomas Beatie Is A Pregnant Man”. I’ve seen lots of ugly women in my time that looked like men. Here’s a woman that dresses and looks like a man. I’ve seen websites that looked like PayPal - but they were fake as well.

    It is the media just trying to make a buck that reports crap like this. Sounds just like the creationists that want to believe the Earth is very young when science proves it is very old.

    The media has lost its way. I do not know how we might put the genie back in the bottle.

    Ha, I didn’t take my own advice, did I? ‘the actually story’ … yeah, that should have said, ‘the actual story’ … guess that’s what I get for being a smarty pants.

    A Says:

    Hmmm, I don’t really care about the actually story; I’ve enjoyed reading these ridiculous comments, though. Folks ought to re-read what they write before posting! Some of you have completely made yourselves appear even more ignorant by not knowing how to spell or punctuate correctly. My conclusion: only uneducated people comment on blogs.

    Hey, We have to face it if She want’s to think She is a Man than let her have her way.

    (We all know that she could never be a Man because that is not what she was intended to be) I don’t understand why everyone is making a big deal about this ” It’s a Woman who wants to be a Man that is Pregent” Are we so bent on being idoits that we can’t see past the games that people paly.

    By the way the word GAY means Happy it does not refer to Homosexuals lets get that right.

    I think that this is great!! I don’t understand how people can have so much faith in God, but are also so judgemental of everyone else. It’s amazing. This man is able to bring a child into this world because his wife could not. I think that their marriage was meant to be because of this situation. I think that he is very brave to show everyone his transgender issue for love of his family. I wish the both of you luck!!!!
