This was on the news today about a man who was a female and had a partial change as he felt he was more masculan.
I have no problem there at all,live and let live,it must be unbearable to be trapped in the wrong body..
However I do have a problem with a baby being born.
Is this a sick stunt for publicity,,,I do not know..
The child would be my concern,,not now,, it will be loved, of that I have no doubt,,no my problem is later..
The conversation somthing like this " your father gave birth to you as mummy could not have children" education later at school, teacher,,"the women gives birth" child,,no no my daddy gave birth to me,,, or will she be kept in the dark,,,I would love to know what you think.

The person that was a she and then changed to become a he most have been really surprised to get pregnant. Imagine how he felt walking around looking like a pregnant man. His past is come back to him and gave him a daughter. I think his daughter will grow up loved and well cared for. Nowadays some families are quite different from a mum and dad with two children. I imagine that her teachers will be sensitive to the little girl and if the other class mates know about the situation make them be respectful to her. I don't think that she will be kept in dark about who her parents are. The news 'a man gives birth to a daughter' is unusual and I hope that the man and his daughter won't suffer nasty comments from anyone. Live and let live I guess, because everyone has feelings.

Was this the man that was married and got pregnant that was on Oprah? If so he had a girl, I kind of wondered if they had the baby or not. I know from what you have spoken about as far as the child is concern. If you have satellite check to see if you have the BBC channel. They are in Europe and I just watch a show the other night about a man and woman married with 2 girls(young girls) and the husband is gay. They have explained it to their girls and they are still a family. So they have kind of delt with what you have spoke on how it would affect the child and if they would tell the child all together. I was a little shocked when I saw it myself but I had to understand one thing. It was their life and who and I to judge them for how they live.
