In this story in the Advocate (click here), we meet Tom, who is pregnant, and Nancy. Tom, who was a woman but is now a man, decided that, following his human need, he wanted to be a parent, which he and Nancy are going to be:
"How does it feel to be a pregnant man? Incredible. Despite the fact that my belly is growing with a new life inside me, I am stable and confident being the man that I am. In a technical sense I see myself as my own surrogate, though my gender identity as male is constant. To Nancy, I am her husband carrying our child--I am so lucky to have such a loving, supportive wife. I will be my daughter's father, and Nancy will be her mother. We will be a family."
Makes me want to sing, "We are family!"
Peace,
Brett
