Transgendered Man Writes In 'The Advocate'
POSTED: 9:04 am PDT March 25, 2008
BEND, Ore. -- An Oregon man is five months pregnant, according to a national magazine.
Video: Man Says He's Pregnant
Thomas Beatie, who used to be a woman, appeared in the most recent issue of The Advocate, a magazine for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender readers, Portland, Ore., television station KPTV reported.
Beatie wrote the article, which includes a picture of him while he was 22 weeks pregnant. According to the story, he went through a sex change, but decided only to have chest reconstruction and testosterone therapy.
Beatie was able to keep the reproductive organs he was born with. The article said he stopped getting the injections and was able to get pregnant.
Beatie, who lives in Bend, wrote he was once pregnant with triplets, but the pregnancy was life-threatening and he lost the fetuses. Now, Beatie said he and his wife, Nancy, are expecting a little girl in July.
In the article, Beatie described some of the challenges he and his wife have faced -- they said doctors won't treat them. The couple met 10 years ago and Nancy is not able to have children.
He wrote in The Advocate that their situation "sparks legal, political and social unknowns."
The couple were out of town Monday and unable to speak with the station. |

If he was really pregnant with triplets before the news would of known about it before, and it says that dr.s won't treat them, well they had to get the sperm somewhere, you know. Another artilce also said that a friend had said the wife was the one that was pregnant that they were going through fertility treatments. |

If the story is true and all the reproductive organs were intact than I really don't think it is so unlikely, afterall he is really a she... just had surgery and hormones to make it appear otherwise.
But why can someone who does all that to her body to avoid being female get preggo so easy, when people who love their femininity have such a hard time? Sometimes life makes no sense! |
