"A female to male transgender's claim to be pregnant is a hoax, according to the man's neighbour."

...and you thought the fun was over... ::)

Well if he's not due till July, which he's said, then he's only 5 months along, and that can easily be disguised in men's clothes.

I do wish this whole damn thing would get out of the media. Even my mother has heard of it.

It would hardly show at 5 mths.  The picture that I saw in the Advocate I thought was a hoax picture anyway because he looked like he was about 7 or 8 months along.  They probably altered the image in some way.  :-\
Then again this could be an April Fools joke gone awry!   ::)

Is the pregnant man Thomas Beatie a hoax for April Fool's Day?
PREGNANT MAN: TRUTH OR HOAX?
By Julie Mccaffrey In Bend, Oregon Julie.Mccaffrey@Mirror.Co.Uk  29/03/2008

As the world's media descends on small town Bend to find out if the story of the pregnant man is true, the couple at the centre of it all have left town.

Thomas Beatie, 34, and wife Nancy Roberts, 45, are believed to be on vacation in his home state of Hawaii.

For once... a news article refering to a transperson by the RIGHT pronouns throughout....
maybe its because its f2m? theres never the same scandal that surrounds m2f...

If he is, good on him, as tbh, its just like he said, human desire. and it doesnt make him anything but the farther...
