The pregnant man???

[AB Asks]

Thomas Beatie and his 'wife' Nancy are expecting their first child. Nothing sounds out of the ordinary here until you learn that Beatie, the man, is the pregnant one. He was once a woman and when he had his sex change operation he kept his female reproductive organs, which according to doctors makes it possible for him to carry a baby. The couple are refusing to give interviews at the moment. What do you think? All a big hoax?

Not according to GMTV, the trans gender person is in hiding but is being interviewed on OPRAH later this week. If it is an April Fool it is a double bluff, cos usually they never mention April Fools Day during news articles that are supposedly hoaxes

Story was actually published in papers last week so i doubt it's an April Fool. May still be a publicity hoax though

Saw this in the papers last week.......didn't believe it then and don't believe it now! Although some doctors did say that in theory it was possible!!

They have their own t shirt printing business and it has been suggested this if a stunt to publicise the business.

In any case, it is not a pregant man, it is a bearded lady, pregnant or not.

There's nothing miraculous or 'amazing' about this story. The bloke is still a woman ...and women have children! What's the big deal? I don't get it?

Looks like the operation that changed her into a man consisted of having a haircut and calling herself Thomas.

The picture looked by a middle aged man with a pot belly.
