Gender Bender

So, I'm sure everyone out there knows about the first pregnant "man" by now. Does this annoy the hell out of anyone else, or is it just me? She's not a man!! She's a woman who took testosterone so she could grow some stubble on her chin! Why is this a story? Especially since the story isn't even true. Barbara Walters just had a special on last Friday called "What Is a Man, What Is a Woman? Journey of a Pregnant Man". (Where, by the way, she announced she was pregnant again....yay, we get to go through this story again). Well, Barbara, I'll answer that question for you. A man is a person who was born with boy parts....a woman is a person who was born with girl parts. Yes, I know there are hermaphrodites, but that is another story, because in this case she was definitely born a girl. So, this woman, on top of taking the testosterone, has also gone and officially changed her documents such as driver's license and birth certificate so that she is "legally" a man now. What?!? Really? So, by changing your birth certificate, you completely altered history so that you were born a boy in the past? How does that magic bullshit work? Nope, sorry, you're still a woman. Anyway, until someone that was born with a twig and berries grows up and has a baby, can we get rid of this craptastic "news" story. We'll leave this BS for the tabloids, where it belongs.

Until next time....as we all learned in kindergarten, boys have a penis, girls have a vagina. (or was that Kindergarten Cop?) :)
