You knew this was coming sooner or later, right?
The story that made headlines last month will feature in an upcoming episode of Oprah.
Thomas and his wife, Nancy, are a happily married couple who run a small business, live in a normal neighborhood and are expecting their first child. But it’s Thomas, a post-op transgender who, having retained female reproductive organs, is carrying the couple’s baby.
Thomas says the desire to have children doesn’t make him feel like less of a man. “I have a very stable male gender identity. I see pregnancy as a process, and it doesn’t define who I am. It’s not a male or female desire to want to have a child…it’s a human desire,” he says. “I’m a person, and I have the right to have my own biological child.”
‘The Pregnant Man’ episode screens on Oprah at 1pm Monday May 19 on TEN.
No jumping on the couch, please.
