Men can't have vagina's, at least not real ones. [Edited 11/19/08 8:43am] | |

Does it hurt your sensibilities? It is NOT a man. Pretty simple. | |

It doesn't just narrow down to who has the vag and who has the willy, folks. It's never that simple. Like I said, some of you really need to pick up some academic and medical research on the issue of gender indentity before you go shooting off your mouths about things you know nothing about.

kpowers said: meow85 said: It's not "my views", it's the reality of the situation. You're the one insisting that this man has to be called a woman because he's capable of carrying a child, and is. Here's a question for you: Is his wife a "man", because she's not physically participating in their childrens' gestation? If, after all, you say this man is a woman because he's carrying, then by the same logic his wife isn't a woman because she's not. I'm only talking about the woman who is giving birth, why are you bringing in her partner for. It's a lesbian couple thus it's 2 females. You are the one calling them males for. Your also stating that I'm "deciding" and "telling" people what to do, which you are wrong about. If she wants to call herself a man thats fine with me, but I don't have to call her a man. I'm calling him a man because he says he is a man. No one said you have to acknowledge this preson's reality. No one even said you have to be respectful about it. Which is a damned good thing, because you've done neither. But would it kill you not to display your ignorance? "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

JustErin said: Why the fuck is this even news?
It's like its some amazing feat or something. It's not. It's not a pregnant man expecting a baby. It's a woman living as a man having a baby. Big whoop. I suppose you can say that this brings up the topic of gender rolls and identity but that's not even what's really being discussed in the media. Shouldn't it be, though? We can debate the appropriateness of this couple bringing such media attention upon themselves, but it doesn't change the fact that this has the potential for being an opportunity to educate people on the subject of gender roles and sexual and gender identity. As shown on this thread, some people are sorely in need of it. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

They are not talking about gender identity though. They are simply stating that she is a biologically a woman. I'm not sure why saying that is offensive. It is what it is. Biology IS that simple. | |

That's exactly it. We can respect a person's identity or understand psychology, but when people make a big deal out of a man being pregnant, it's not such a big deal when biologically it is actually a woman that is pregnant. Interesting to see a person with a beard who is pregnant, but not biologically amazing. My Legacy

They're related concepts, but not the same thing. Since transsexual people have in fact shown to have the brain structure of the sex they feel they should be rather than their biological sex, there's no reason to believe what's between their legs should override that. A vag or a dick is not the end-all, be-all of gender. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |
