Shy  US Man 6 Months Pregnant

It sounds and seems crazy, but 34 year old Thomas Beatie of Oregon who underwent a sex change 10 years ago is now expecting. Here's the story: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/7330196.stm

Is this right? Surely, men are not wired for this sort of thing and no matter how much scientific tampering his body undergoes it does not alter the fact that he is a man.

RE: US Man 6 Months Pregnant

The story is true; however, it really is a woman. Thomas Beatie was, at one time, a beauty queen. "He" underwent a sex change operation but still retained his female internal organs and therefore, was able to conceive. I presume he had to tone down the testosterone in order to conceive. I forget who the father was. Thomas is "married" to a woman. Thomas has since delivered the baby, a girl. I wonder what happens when they try to give the child's family history. "I don't know about my father's side," says the child. "But isn't Thomas your father?" asks the doctor. "No, that's my mother."
