I know it’s been around for about a week but it’s just now really sunk in that a man is pregnant in Oregon. WARNING prepare for tirade…WARNING prepare for tirade.
Right, I try to be open-minded about most things. I’m fairly open to the idea of gay marriage or civil unions and I don’t necessarily mind gay men or women adopting children. As long as they provide a loving home, that’s what is most important. Now, having said that, I can in no way, shape or form tolerate or abide by this ‘pregnant man.’ I mean, seriously, how f***ed up is that child going to be if they ever tell him/her who actually gave birth and that the ‘father’ isn’t really a man at all?!
I certainly don’t think there is anything normal or right with having a sex change in the first place. You were born a man or a woman; deal with it. However, I don’t care too much about it. I have my opinion, but if you want to go lopping off your hoo-ha or adding a hoo-ha, that’s your business. It is when you bring a child into the picture and, in this case, the wholly un-natural (that’s right I said UN-NATURAL) idea of a man giving birth. From where is the child going to come out? I presume they’re going to have to do a Caesarean.
I could go on but I won’t. Suffice to say there is nothing normal about this birth, though I doubt anyone would argue with that. I just don’t like it, ok?! It is not natural, it is not right (in my mind); and, while I certainly can’t say it shouldn’t be happening because that would call for a termination (I’m pro-choice and all, but there’s just no need in this case) I can’t really say it should be happening. The ‘man’ in question should never have been allowed to do this in the first place. If this couple wanted a child they should have artificially inseminated his wife, not him.
