Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4It is confusing for people. You wouldn't pick and choose bits of religions to follow for example, you would stick to one. It might be confusing for the children if they see a man giving birth, that's what I meant.(Original post by Pink Bullets)
Errr why shouldn't you do whatever suits you, as long as it doesn't hurt anyone?

Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4haha, ill rep you later when i get some more(Original post by dunnicare)
What happened to the old channel 4 documentaries?
The robot waman, the eight limbed child, the girl with x-ray vision.....................oh wait. They were just as ****........only had riciulously exagurated titles. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4I'm not sure about 'unnatural' but it's definitely very weird. Shows like this are just the modern equivalent of circuses; a lot of people love a freak show.(Original post by littlebeckyx)
I thought it was a very good documentary, I think these guys are very brave and I admire them for living their lives how they want to, not how the average person is 'expected' to live. They are great parents to their children, it is not 'un-natural' or 'weird' it's just unique. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4Thats what I was thinking. In the past these people would be in a circus somewhere..now people are celebrating their 'uniqueness'.(Original post by silent)
freak show.
Mommy look at that weird kid
He's not weird Timmy, he's 'special' -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4So you should choose how you live your life based on what's less confusing for other people?(Original post by NeonSkies)
It is confusing for people. You wouldn't pick and choose bits of religions to follow for example, you would stick to one.
What's wrong with doing what makes you happy? By the way, you'd be hard pressed to find a single person in the world who follows their religion to the letter. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4What about those people that say "I'm spiritual" and end up being some bizarre Buddhist, Pagan, Christian mixture or something. Nothing is set in stone.(Original post by NeonSkies)

Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4Yes I realise this. What I meant was it could be confusing to other people like their children, if they see a man having a baby.(Original post by Pink Bullets)

Fair enough they are entitled to live their lives as either gender, but once they have changed gender they should probably stick to it rather than having the best of both worlds if that makes sense. -

I guess if you're infertile in this day and age, transgender is the way to go...
They look happy, I guess that's what's most important...even though it seems a bit weird...they have a lovely daughter now.Last edited by loling909; 07-04-2011 at 23:22. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4(Original post by PurpleMonkeyDishwasher)
You're a dick, you need to grow up.
I'm a dick because I think they are weird. Fair enough. I just said what everyone else was thinking, man. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4Course not, but for something as specific as gender it's probably best to decide which one you want to live your life as and stay with whichever makes you happy rather than having children as a man, because you're not living as a man if you're pregnant.(Original post by Butties)
What about those people that say "I'm spiritual" and end up being some bizarre Buddhist, Pagan, Christian mixture or something. Nothing is set in stone.
It's just my opinion of course and everyone is entitled to theirs, but I personally think if you've chosen which gender to live as you shouldn't chop and change, it can be really damaging. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4What's wrong with that? Why is confusion a bad thing? If children are confused by something, they ask questions, they receive answers, and they become more knowledgeable than they were before the confusion set in. I can only see that as a good thing, personally.(Original post by NeonSkies)
it could be confusing to other people like their children, if they see a man having a baby.
What's wrong with having the best of both worlds? When you put it like that, it sounds like a sweet deal to me, and if it's not hurting anyone...once they have changed gender they should probably stick to it rather than having the best of both worlds if that makes sense. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4LOL I heard about this guy/woman/whatever before as well. I think its obvious that its not normal to think like that, but hey, cest la vie. I'm not going to judge them or anything, I just ignore it normally. But in our society it probably isnt long until we start seeing incestual relationships or inter-species sex. You've gotta love liberals(Original post by loling909)

What does 'weird' mean? Yeah, it may be out of the ordinary but I highly doubt it made you feel physically sick. Your attitude to the issue is pathetic, I'm just glad they've been brave enough to carry on living their lives in spite of people like you. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4That is your opinion, but I'm going to stick with mine because I personally believe if you have chosen to live your life as a man, you aren't actually being a man if you are pregnant so I don't really understand why you would want a mixture of both. You say it isn't hurting anyone, but for all we know their children could grow up confused and perhaps even bullied for having 'odd' parents or whatever.(Original post by Pink Bullets)

I'm not saying it is right at all, but it could happen. I am not disputing that they are great parents, but when the children grow up things can happen to them which are out of their parents control.Last edited by NeonSkies; 07-04-2011 at 23:27. -
Re: Dad's Having a Baby: Channel 4Haha yeah I guess however incestual relationships are very common - cousin cousin marriages...inter-species sex - I heard about a man and a sheep once, someone told me it was in the news but that was ages ago and I can't remember(Original post by Lewroll)
