After Three Kids, 'Pregnant Man' Says He's Done Having Babies
Posted on Oct 30, 2011 @ 05:43AM
The 'Pregnant Man' has given birth to his last baby!
In an interview airing on The Doctors, Thomas Beatie says he is seriously considering having a hysterectomy.
Beatie was born a woman and legally became a man in 2002 although he never had his female reproductive organs surgically removed.
He and his wife Nancy have three kids -- Susan, Austin and Jensen, and it was she who breastfed the babies.
But the transgender dad had to go off his male hormones during each pregnancy. The impact that had on his body is more than he wants to go through again, and a hysterectomy would help stabilize him medically as a male.
Beatie, Nancy and all three of their kids will be on The Doctors on Monday.

I'm sure all the hormones injections are prefectly fine for a baby in a female womb. No problem here. Kid will have a beard by 4.

I THINK THIS PERSON IS JUST AN ATTENTION GETTER, THE BODY HAS ALWAYS BEEN A FEMALE,
IT'S ONLY THE MIND THAT BELIEVES AND BEHAVES AS A MALE....

Ahem. It isn't their mind but their actual physical brain that is wired for the opposite sex. Male and Female brains have marked differences that are distinguishable on MRI scans. True transgender literally have the opposite sexes brain.

How sad for the children they must be really confused until they are old enough to understand it all. I predict those children will all be on a phychiatrist's couch later in life.

Food for thought. M&F brains are different. Scans of transgender people have shown that their brains most closely reflect the brains of the sex they feel they are, not what their body is. This applies to prepubescent children also.

You people should read a science journal once in a while. It would go a long way towards dispelling your ignorance about and fear of transgender people. The seething hatred displayed toward them here is just sad.

As far as I'm concerned all it is is supporting severe mental illness. If your DNA says you are a gender, that is what you are. Feeling otherwise doesn't change that. Just makes you crazy.

Their DNA, hormones, or something else while in the womb says to build a masculinized brain in a female body or vice versa. Their brains are physically different from the sex their body is, MRI brain scans show this clearly. Really...

You obviously don't get it, at all. That much is clear. It's the uneducated opinions of people like you that make them so uncomfortable with being a feminine thinking male, or a masculine thinking female. So they try to conform to one sex.

Brain scans show marked differences between normal male and female brain activity and structure. Brains scans of truly trangender people reflect their brain resembles the sex they FEEL they are, not what the body is.
