This is not the person who should be at the core of this discussion as it does seem they are publicity hungry and cash strapped. <BR/><BR/>I have no greater respect for this person than I do anyone who tries to raise a child with a societal stigma. But again, let's not elevate the Beattie's to icon status. they are an exception...a notorious minority among an already maligned minority. <BR/><BR/>And it is absolutely true that this is not a case of a biological or even genetic male giving birth.

As long as SHE has all the reproductive organs of a woman..SHE IS STILL A WOMAN!!! A woman with a beard! This is not a man that just delivered...IS A WOMAN. The day Thomasine decides to fully get rid of her vagina..uterus etc. and delivers a baby then call it a miracle. All she wants is the attention and 15 minute fame without any regard about parenthood. She even wrote a book now!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-69063585526163036402008-11-18T14:37:00.000-05:002008-11-18T14:37:00.000-05:00Its his opinion, so what, im gay and im not offend...Its his opinion, so what, im gay and im not offended by it.
