[PJMedia] Out of Britain comes the ultimate topsyturvy transgender story: a transgender "man" gave birth with sperm from a transgender "woman," directed by a transgender doctor. Yet the mother's words about pregnancy, motherhood, and femininity may prove the most shocking and tragic.
"I don’t think pregnancy is the ultimate female experience, therefore it didn’t challenge me as a man," 39-year-old Reuben Sharpe, the mother who identifies as a man, told Britain's Daily Mirror. "I actually liked my pregnant body and liked being bigger. It was very affirming and I really enjoyed it – I’m a man and I get pregnant. There’s a lot of changes to go through but I felt free of that." |
