He didn't really get it, and then suddenly wanted to be the guy waiting there with the flowers and got all panicky about not having time to get them due to project deadlines. So I picked up a small bouquet of roses in various shades of lavender.
...yeah, and when he has to have someone else pick up the flowers for him, clearly there are other issues. IJS. Yeah, busy, but...
The whole publicity thing with that just kinda makes me puzzled...it's not the first time that a trans guy has given birth. Didn't Pat Califia or his partner do it?? I guess he's just the first guy to seek out publicity and write about it and shit. Whatever.
Well, yeah. And also? So what. Now if he was born a guy and was surgically made into a woman and then got pregnant? That'd be news! But hello, people with female reproductive organs have babies every day!
Thanks for all of the birthday wishes everyone. I had a nice, quiet day with TCG and my family.
Sue, I'm so sorry.
Brenda, tons of -ma for Lucy.
it's not the first time that a trans guy has given birth.
Yeah, but it's the first time a trans guy who has been on Oprah has given birth.
You know, it's not that I don't believe that a FtM could be a good parent -- it's that I have all kinds of skeevy reservations about a publicity-seeking FtM.
Huh, the board seems to have double-posted me -- I don't think I hit Submit twice.
I was all "ho-hum rainy Fourth, nothing to do" but then I remembered I have TWO invitations to go watch

and sing along. I'm rich, RICH, I tells ya.
