Right off the bat, I'm going to start by saying I'm all for individuals
living their lives as they wish and that all deserve equal rights
regardless of gender, race, sex preference, religion etc. There have
been a few times where this ideal in me has been challenged; the most recent being the pregnancy of a Mr Scott Moore. Scott, a 30-year-old transgender male (born Jessica) was
artificially inseminated by a male friend in June last year and is due
to have a baby boy (whom they've name Miles) this February. It seems you can have your cake and eat it too (so to speak) but it feels a little sneaky, no?
Scott has been taking male hormones since he was 16-years-old and, although he has
his 36DDD breasts removed quite some time ago, he has still yet to get
downstairs sorted out, which has kind of worked in his favour.
His partner Thomas, also transgendered (born as Laura), had his complete
gender reassignment and hysterectomy last year.
Unless you happened to be living in an Oprah-free bubble last year you
will recall a similar case of a Mr Thomas Beatie who gave birth to a
girl last year... same sort of deal. It's an interesting world we live
in.
Pictured to the right of this post and some photos of the expecting couple and also Mr Beatie for your amazement.
