" we have the parts so we use them "
The daily mail is such an awful newspaper.

Yep, the whole reason for the article is sensationalism, plain and simple.
I do think its an admirable couple. Maybe its a little sensationalized but a loving family with kids will always evoke a smile from me
The coverage is full of the typical "born a [physical sex mistaken for gender here]" sensational bilge, but it's a happy story if you can filter that out. Good for them.
to me it's just a story about a couple dealing with their particular situation which most others don't have to think about. I found it quite interesting

" we have the parts so we use them " Yes with both parts (just opposite from what would be expected) so use them as they were intended.
If this was reality it is amazing that they were able to do it with such great results. I am envious of how great Bianca looks.
Bianca really looks great as a girl. She even looks totally girl in her bikini swim suit with no sign of any body and facial hair or her disgusting parts. How does she do it?
Nick has such soft and gentle features and could easily pass as either male or female without question. I can easily see how it would be possible to live as a man with female genitals. I can also see where it would be rather difficult as a man when pregnant, especially when finding appropriate male clothing and using public restrooms.
I think they are both fortunate that they have boys instead of girls. However, how are they to understand that daddy has periods and mommy has boy parts when daddy doesn't?
Just curious, which names and sex did they use when getting married? Was it (Nicole-f / Jason-m) or (Bianca-f / Nick-m) or (Nick-f / Bianca-m)?
They must have some difficulties (Bianca relating to women when she has male genitals) and (Nick relating to men when he has female genitals). However, I think it is great that they are both able to relate to others and
especially to each other as they do.
Wonder when in their relationship did they learn about each others unique situation? Who takes the lead roll sexually?
What I don't get is how you can claim to "hate your parts" but then use them to have sex on what I presume is a regular basis, and in the case of the dad, to deliver the child through that same sex organ. It seems kinda inconsistent and I think it gives people the wrong idea about how dysphoria works.
Regardless, they seem happy together and have a beautiful family so power to them.
once again I could be missing the point but it seems rather then being an in depth discussion about the challenges of dysphoria, it's just an example of a complicated situation created by their particular circumstance.

How would Bianca be able to explain girl things and periods to a girl
Anyone could explain a period, it's not rocket science. As well as other kinds of "girl things".
I think you are too hung up on genitals. I don't see how having a certain set of genitals could prevent someone from relating to people who do not have those genitals, if you are alike in pretty much every other way.
