As i read the headline (and afterwards the whole stories) i thought:
Oh my god, what happened to this person's mind. At first a female model until the beginning of 20, then in the 20s changed to be a man and made the operations but let the female reproductive organs in her/his body.
He is married already 5 years with his wife. In June he gave already birth to a girl and now he got pregnant again by a sperm donor.
I think it will look very strange when the man gets around the corner and you look at his big baby belly, sure that many will think he is fat in this moment.
Everyone has his freedom to decide what you want to do, i just feel strange about changing gender but in the end keeping the reproductive organs, i wouldn't consider him than as a complete man.
What do you think about this?
Here is the link to the new story (with links to the former ones) http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7728513.stm

Well, there are just a lot of weird people around and to some the subject could fit what it is although that would depend on our definition of what's weird. Anyhow, they always still have the rights of their own, technically speaking, but the question that lingers my mind is how sanely manners does shis have? (noticed the shis because I am confused already of what noun I'm gonna use)

Perhaps we will hear in the future something about the kid and how well she has grown up or if there are some side effects from growing in a changed body (filled up with male hormones and then stopped during pregnancy).
For me it's like this: I was born as a man and i have to accept it.
Sure, the technology in medicine has developed in the last 100 years dramatically and you can do many things which nobody thought you could do 50 years before (let's say transplantations).
But this is more beneficiary medicine, changing gender and letting them then be both in the end... i don't believe that this is the right use of this technology.

It is a changing world and things get weirder every day. I am one who believes live as you want to. It is non of my business how people choose to live. I do think there are just some things which should not be altered or messed with. I think this is one of them. This is just my own opinion on the matter.

Thanks for your opinion, bmk188!
It's getting weird each day. For me the morality should be a little bit different. Normally these persons who make the change of gender have to consult a psychiater and get his OK to do this because they really don't feel well in their gender body.
But changing only the outside appearance and talking then about "but i want to get pregnant afterwards with my resources" is too strange for me.
Have a nice day!
