Pregnant Man?

This should be filed under "Why is this news?".  If it were an actual man who got pregnant, that would be news.  If it's a woman who had a sex change, it stupid.  It's not miraculous or amazing, or newsworthy when somebody gets pregnant when they were born with the proper equipment.  If a hermaphrodite gets pregnant, that's more newsworthy than this nonsense.  The attention this story gets has more to do with some people's fascination with oddities of people than of anything truly amazing.  From what I've seen of the trailers, Barbara does ask some direct questions.  The fact that she performs the interview at all is a little disappointing.  I have no personal ill will toward the transgender people.  I don't doubt there is something very complicated going on with them.  I can't imagine going through that kind of surgery if somebody is just mildly confused about their identity.  I'm pretty sure that this kind of issue runs pretty deep and it's something I probably will never come close to understanding.

That said, the story does not deserve that much attention, at least stop referring to Thomas as a pregnant man.  It's just not the same.
