The Preggers Man on Oprah

Filed under: TV News > Gay Gay Gay > Baby Blabber > Oprah Winfrey

pregnantman.jpg

The much buzzed about 'pregnant man', Thomas Beatie will be a guest on Oprah's show Thursday.

Beatie's a transgender man that is expecting a child. Though he underwent surgery to switch genders, he kept his female reproductive organs and is nearly six months pregnant.

He tells Oprah that his current wife Nancy is unable to conceive and that's the only reason he's going through with the pregnancy. Beatie was able to conceive via artificial insemination.

Thomas tells Oprah in a show clip, "I'm a person and I have the right to have my own biological child."

He expects to deliver a girl around July 3rd.

    THAT IS NOT A MAN, THAT IS A PERVERTED FREAK. YOU CANT TURN A WOMAN INTO A MAN ANYMORE THAN YOU CAN TURN A DOG INTO A CAT. I REALLY FEEL SORRY FOR THAT KID WHO IS GOING TO HAVE TO GROW UP WITH PERVERTS FOR PARENTS. GAYS, LESBIANS, "TRANNYS" ETC … ALL OF THOSE PERVERTS NEED TO BE STERILIZED AND THROWN ON A DESERT ISLAND FOR PERVERTS!!!

    Every child deserves to be born and raised in a loving family. This decision does not seem ill considered and I would welcome any family that brings a child in this world with the kind of thoughtfullness that Thomas and Nancy have obviously given this. Relax everybody, there are so many children out there that deserve loving parents that embark on this journey. Let's just be happy that this is one family that is unified in making this happen in such a committed way.

    I call bullshit and even if it isn't bullshit, it SHOULD be. I'm sick of all this fucking gender bending. People need to fuckin' decide what the hell they are (IF indeed they have to choose) and fucking stick to it. It must be nice to have the best of both worlds you stupid fucker!!! I hope your reproductive organs rot and fall out or off or whatever the hell!!!!!

Bitch had his tits cut off then got knocked up. She isnt a pregnant man. She is a pregnant woman who wants to be a man.

    111

    What a two-faced confused tranny who has betrayed society's freedom. If you are really a woman who wanted to be a man bad enough to become one then be a man and represent manhood. Men don't give birth. First there were those two-faced lesbians who used a benevolent straight man for a sperm donor and this benevolent straight man also agreed to sign away his rights so miss dykes could play family and house and then when the kid turns 18 miss dykes sue the benevolent sperm donor for college tuition???!!!! Who can take the gays movement seriously when they claim to be gay and tranny then use heterosexuality and heterosexuals for their own selfish gains. Now we have this sheman having a baby???!!! No one should have to explain this to a child and this confused freak should be obligated to reverse her gender back to female since she actually does wish to function as a woman.

    This is sick. At least she WAS a woman, so it is not TRULY a man carrying this poor baby. We as a society, have no respect for the boundaries that nature has intentionally set. None. Just because you can do something, doen't mean you should. Thank you science, for crossing the line again.

    OK shit for brains readers, what part of THIS IS BIOLOGICALLY A FEMALE does not register in your heads?

    So what she decide to live a male life, fact is, she was born a woman and will die a woman. I can decide to live a life of a dog and walk on all fours and shit with one leg raised in the air but bottom line is, I WILL ALWAYS BE A HUMAN. The real term to describe this case of "man' having baby is, CONFUSED DYKE DECIDES TO HAVE A CHILD. whoopie-big shit!

    Hello, welcome to 2008. We don't whip people anymore. People still do get shot but you already know that, because no doubt you own a gun.

    Also, welcome to the internet. In general, we're pretty cool. But for the most part, we don't give a shit what you have to say. We do laugh at funny people, like yourself, who for some reason think you have the right to tell other people what to do and how to live :) . Preach on, loser.

    This a wonderful thing that Mr. Beatie is doing to for his family. One basic concept of the American dream is to have a family and he and his wife are doing what they have to to make that possible. Instead of complicating things by bringing in a third party surrogate, they have made the choice to keep it all in the family. If it is possible for them to do this, then why should any of you care that they are? It doesn't effect you in anyway, shape, or form, except for the fact that there will be one more person on this planet–and one more person who will be loved.

    And as for whoever asked repeatedly "Who is the father?" Mr. Beatie is this child's father. Mrs. Beatie, the mother. As it would be in any male-female relationship.

    since a transman cant get pregnant while on testosterone, he had to go off hormones, and when he did that his ovaries began functioning again.
    transsexuality is a legitimate medical condition. you people are really living in the stone ages.

  32. MMMMMM says – reply to this


    132

    LEGALLY she is still a woman because she still has her reproductive organs. She is a WOMAN who has removed her breasts and is taking male hormones…..So the fact that they call her a pregnant man is misleading. Just because you LOOK like a man and you live the life of a man DOES NOT MAKE YOU A MAN.

    And the male hormones she's taking cannot be good for her child.

    In conclusions…she is a man looking woman having a child…..nothing new

    Genetically obviously this person is female no matter how many plastic surgeries, medical science can not change the dna and rna of males and females. you got a y or not.
    I am completely confidient that medical science can create mutations (ie. human ear on the back of a mouse) but these creatures do not reproduce and are born sterile/infertile.
    So a "man" "male" is not having a child but a woman or female that has begun plastic surgery to have the physical appearance of a male.

    Okay, I really don't get what the big deal is about this. Don't get me worng, I give him and his family my full congratulations. But the guy (as he would like to be known) has fully functioning female reproductive organs. . .so why is everyone so 'surprised' that he's pregnant??? I would think if you took high school biology it seems pretty obvious that this is a normal pregnancy.

    I really don't understand why they are making such a huge deal out of this. This man was once a woman and still has the female organs…. of course she/he can become pregnant! The only reason people think it's so crazy is that the pregnant person looks like a man, has a man's name and once took sex hormones to feel more like a man but is still geneticly female. Now you get person who was born a man pregnant I will be amazed but I'm not impressed by basic biology.

I would never be able to tell all of you about my wonderful GOD without my HEVEAN-SENT DESKTOP COMPUTER given to us by blessed angels.

    If this baby comes out successfully, it will undoubtedly be with complications. Do you really think it's healthy for a baby to ingest all the testosterone supplements the mother is taking? Although SHE has her reproductive parts, the hormones do not match and most likely wouldn't support a healthy pregnancy. Again, publicity stunt. They probably have a surrogate in hiding.

    Congratulations to the Beaties! I think this is such a neat story. :) It's unfortunate that they had such a difficult time retaining an open-minded, unbiased doctor. Hopefully making his story public will help to change that, though. It's definitely time for people to stop being so closed-minded and judgmental. People are people, right?

    The only thing I wonder about is whether all the hormones, etc. that Mr. Beatie has taken to "become a man" will be harmful for the baby? I don't know much about pregnancy or the effects of hormone levels on fetuses, so am not sure..? In any event, I hope they have a healthy little girl!

    165

    Carolyn and some of you other folks need a lesson in sex ed. The baby is NOT coming out of anything except Thomas's uterus by either C-section or vaginally. Sorry but Thomas is still a woman with a uterus who happens to have removed his breasts and has a beard, and will always be a woman no matter how many surguries he/she has, how much testosterone he/she injects. In his/her mind they might feel like a man but GENES don't lie, and XX (female) is still there and will always be there. Is being transgender wrong? No. I get what it is… being wired differently despite being born biologically a female, Thomas is wired (in the brain) as male. God makes us all, big/small, brown/yellow/black/white, etc. so we're all equally beautiful and special in his eyes. What I don't get is why wouldn't Thomas have changed reproductive organs too? Can transgenders really still have "maternal" feelings if they are wired male, and if so does this really make them transgender? Ponder that one…

    I was at this taping of Oprah last week. It is really a woman giving birth, it just looks like a guy. Thomas took testosterone for 10 years and has been off of it for 2 years. He also had both of her boobs removed. Thomas's wife now has 2 grown daughters who were both on the show. Thomas has been pregnant before but had an a topic pregnancy and lost the baby. As for how Thomas is going to give birth, he said and I quote "the most natural way" …. And I traveled 600 miles to see an Oprah show and this is what i got…

    look im glad that he is thinking of his wife when he is doing this but the only reason he is thinking of her is because he is a she…. if this was really a guy he would never be able to do this for his wife that is why it makes it wrong. and all of use that say its OK no its not he chose to be a guy he should of thought about having a child when he was going through the surgery now this child no matter what the generation will be teased. . . If people would of just let these people alone and live there like without exploiding them and showing them off to the world this child would of had a chance to live a normal life and when she got old enough to understand they could tell her. now she's going to have to deal with what people tell her. all the luck to them and this little girl

WHAT SHOULD BE TALKED ABOUT IS THE AFFECT ON THIS CHILD, THAT HER MOTHER WOULD WANT TO BECOME A MAN. THIS IS VERY SAD FOR THE CHILD.

    Good luck explaining this one to our children. This freak was born a women but then decided it wanted to be a man, so had surgery, but kept female organs. Then decides to have a baby, but wants everyone to think its a man? Lovely, just freaking lovely. No story here, just a freak who looks like a man and is having a baby. A women with no boobs and facial hair. Why is everyone making a big deal over this. Freak

    It's nice to see that some people understand people's lifes. Yeah I'm gay, but changing my sex would be nothing I would ever come across doing. I think that this is a great experience for this couple and the world. The world needs to realize that this is what we are coming to. Within the last 10 years, our society has become more and more acceptable with gays in this country. Its nice to see for once that people stop judging others by their personal ways or sexual orientation. I'm a big believer in God, and to this day know that he is the only one that will ever judge me and it actually mean something to me. People judging others is just a great way to try to push their problems on someone else. I wish the best of luck to this couple and hope everything goes great!!
