An Oregon man who used to be a woman claims to be pregnant with a baby girl.
Thomas Beatie was born female, but he has since changed his sex -- removing his breasts, taking regular testosterone injections and legally registering as a man.
However, Beatie apparently didn't remove everything from his former life. He recently told The Advocate magazine that he has become pregnant, conceiving from a sperm donor because his wife Nancy is unable to conceive.
If the news is true, the happy couple expect the baby to arrive in July.
We at Asylum are happy that another barrier to sexual equality has fallen in the wake of progress, just don't ask us to follow his example. There are only a few places a newborn baby could emerge from a man. And none of them seem very pleasant.
A pregnant man doesn't sound too pretty, but some women know how to work pregnancy to their advantage.
