I’m not sure being loved qualifies as a basic human right. Clearly, most people desire it, but a “human right?” That’s a stretch.

I think this situation is just another example of why we need to stop viewing gender and sexuality in “black” and “white” terms. Everyone has a basic human right to be loved and have a family. Mozel tov to the couple. I hope they enjoy the great and beautiful journey that is raising a child.

I have zero problem with trangendered-ality. Zero. What I have a problem with is people trying to have their cake and eat it too. Make up your mind. If he really was a man stuck in a woman’s body, then why does he feel he is entitled to have a baby with the reproductive organs he didn’t want in the first place?

There are so many children in this world who are neglected and unloved. If this couple is going to love their child, then who cares what everyone else thinks. Of course it will not be easy, especially with all the ignorance in this world, but if they are happy and can provide a loving home, then who are we to judge?

The reason he did not have his gentital area operated on, is because they cannot YET make a penis. It’s as simple as that. He is not a ‘Lesbian’ because gender identity has nothing to do with who you are attracted too. She/he always felt like a guy.

sickening? so transgendered people aren’t allowed to have children? do you really find it so easy to equate transgendered people with bestiality? i’m afraid that i find such thinking very ignorant.

I feel that the whole thing is indeed sickening. What’s next? Humans marrying animals and have babies?

Who was the sperm donor? Basically it’s just a woman (who looks like a man) having a child,…no news there, women have been doing it for years,…he/she isn’t the first! And certainly won’t be the last!

Well, congrats. I think this has been an interesting story and a good example on how far we have come with loving people for who they are, and not caring so much about who they are “supposed” to be. I think, in theory, the story isn’t all that shocking, considering it is a transgendered woman with female reproductive organs, who become pregnant, not a man born as a man, like physically speaking. So yes, he is a man, but he wasn’t before so. . . hmmm, anyway, I’m just glad women are still the only ones who can give birth. Congrats and happiness to the loving family!

I think these posts should be monitored so we don’t get discriminatory comments like the one that rYouit made.

Congratulations to the happy couple.

This is discusting! I hate that when SHE was on Oprah all Oprah had to say was “oh my, how can a MAN have a baby??” What an idiot! SHE is still just a woman, only a lesbian. Sheesh!

Congratulations to the happy family. I personally think that love makes a family, not necessarily a man and a woman.
