Oh yeah!! The first comment in the article itself made me giggle. (but the other comments to the article are funny too)

I assume you mean this and not the first paragraph (as it was, well, not funny):

The claim inspired some snickers from locals in Stafford County. "I think he's an idiot," one man said.

This isn't a story, but it sure made me say, "What the fück!?!"
Spaghetti straps Aretha? Really?!? How were your shoulders not bleeding by the end of the night?

I bet there are 6 or 7 hillside homes stuck under those puppies...

OMG when I saw this I almost blew Knott's Berry Punch out my nose.

Well, I wouldn't go as far as to say WTF, because it makes sense from a biological standpoint in this particular case, but the photos are pretty astounding...

I saw a news bit on that today and I was wondering if it would get coverage on LoT. I really don't see what the big deal about a woman having a baby is. Biology does not care much for legal distinctions.

Because it is a transgender MAN having the baby. People who are transgender often feel that there was a biological f**kup that is being corrected by making their bodies match their gender (or lack thereof... there's a lot more to it than a man wanting to be a woman and vice versa, as in, a lot of gray shades in between). For one thing, the FTM (female-to-male) involved in this has been taking testosterone for many years, I believe had the "top surgery" (double masectomy) -- socially and mentally (and hormonally) this person is male, with the chromosomes and nether regions as a female.

To say that this person is a woman with a mere LEGAL distinction of being male is incredibly trivializing and condescending.

I mean, I guess you could say that you don't see what the big deal of a person who was born with a vagina and uterus having a baby is, but it IS an odd case because of the social aspects of the whole thing.

Nature also does not care about how one feels or their mental outlook. Nature is a cold hard bitch that eats baby seals and lets kittens starve.

So yeah, I don't see how a messed up individual having a baby makes national headlines. It happens everyday. If she can love and take care of the child then great for her but is it news? I still say no.

The news story I saw was all about "medical miracle" Man having babay. Which is not true and that's what I responding to not the individual in the story.

You're not making any sense here whatosever.

First, you're responding to the "messed up individual" (ummmmmm how many trans people do YOU know, apparently zero). Which you were responding to before.

Then you say you're not responding to the individual, you're responding to the news headline. Which said nothing about a medical miracle. The person is indeed a transgender man who is pregnant.

Now what do nature and seals have to do with the price of dogfarts in China?
