They could have fertilized an egg and planted it in his bowels.. that would do it.. lol

I've seen plenty of babies being born. Unless he's got a vagina or a scalpel, brother man's got a real fight on his hands. ..Ha.
 
Stupid and creepy

From the Daily Telegraph:

Thomas Beatie, 34, of Oregon, claimed he was pregnant in an article in a gay magazine last month, but had, until his meeting with the chat show host, remained silent about his extraordinary tale.

Many observers, including Mr Beatie's neighbours, thought the story was a hoax after he said he would not give any interviews until April Fools Day.

There was also speculation that the story could be connected to a new television series which plays pranks on the media.

But in his interview for The Oprah Winfrey Show, to be broadcast in the US tonight, Mr Beatie reveals that, as a female called Tracy Lagondino, he used to date men in his teens.

And from ABC News:

Despite removing his breasts, growing a wispy beard and legally having his gender changed from female to male, Beatie, 34, kept his female sex organs intact because he hoped to have a child some day ....

.... "I actually opted not to do anything to my reproductive organs because I wanted to have a child one day. I see pregnancy as a process and it doesn't define who I am," Beatie told Winfrey.

"I feel it's not a male or female desire to have a child. It's a human need. I'm a person and I have the right to have a biological child."

Beatie was impregnated with sperm from a donor. His wife, Nancy, inseminated him at home with a device she said was like a syringe without the needle. They bought it from a veterinarian and it is typically used to feed birds.

He has an intact vagina, but he he did not say how he would deliver the baby.

Frankly, I think the whole thing's rather stupid and just a bit creepy. It wants to have a kid, it should have a kid. I can't believe they're actually calling Beatie a "pregnant man". Strangely, the Telegraph accented the wrong word in their headline.

This is perhaps the most desperate ploy for attention I've ever heard of.
