Thomas Beatie - Pregnant Transman - to be on Oprah

Tune in Thursday - it should be interesting! Oprah will be hosting Thomas Beatie, a transman from the Northwest who has become pregnant through artificial insemination. This isn't anything terribly new. Matt Rice (former partner of radical sex activist / theorist / author Pat Califia) gave birth a few years ago. Does it mean transmen are more "legible" now, that this is receiving so much fanfare? Or is it because Matt Rice and Pat Califia were so decidedly unmedia-friendly? In any case, I'm sure Oprah will make a fool of herself on Thursday. Check it out.
