Notions of gender have been corrupted by sexual politics

"No doubt you will have read about Thomas Beatie, "the transgender man
who is six months pregnant," (as one newspaper reported). Indeed,
every single account that I have read about this grisly little charade
has referred to Thomas as a he, not a "he" or as a she, though it is
quite clear that Beatie is no more a man than are Jennifer Lopez or
Dana."
