These are again the sign of the times. All these will happen; legalising of
abortion, euthanesia, same sex marriages, clonings, etc and then the end
will come.

>Rachel called. 'You're not going to believe this...' (In a tone I would
>place somewhere between surprise and dismay) 'there's a man who's
>pregnant.'
>
>'It's a joke,' I told her. 'Arnold Schwarzenneger did it way back in 1994.
>Remember Junior?' 'This is no film,' she replied, now almost frothing at
>the mouth. 'There's a man in Manhattan who's really gone and got himself
>pregnant.'
>
>Still smiling, I logged on and was lead by my helpful friend to the Web
>site of Pop! The first human male pregnancy. I promptly stopped smiling.
>
>A guy called Lee Mingwei really was pregnant, and loving every minute of
>it.
>
>I know what you're thinking, because I did, too. Who? What? Why? How?
>
>Mingwei is an artist who explores the diurnal cycles of living, and has had
>solo exhibitions at The Whitney Museum of American Art and The Cleveland
>Museum of Art. In the past, his works have been based on human activities
>like cooking and letter writing. It's his latest experiment though - that
>of child bearing - that takes the cake.
>
>First off, then, Mr. Lee. Why?
>
>In an interview, he explains. "A lot of people have cast this endeavour as
>something terribly monstrous -- a startling example of how science and
>medicine have simply gone too far. From my perspective, however, I am
>simply bringing a child into this world. There is nothing more natural and
>beautiful on this earth than that."
>
>While a streaming video clip of the interview will be online shortly, the
>site currently has Ultrasound Video, a live EKG, current vital stats, live
>web cam and a video archive. Yes, he's aware of how shocking the concept
>may sound, at first, but still asks a very valid question: Why shouldn't a
>man bear a burden that women have always carried? Also, why shouldn't men
>be able to experience the same joy and excitement felt by pregnant women?
>
>Whatever.
>
>Next question: How did he manage it? Simple. Firstly, Lee was administered
>oral doses of female hormones to make him receptive to the pregnancy. Then,
>an embryo and placenta were implanted into his abdominal cavity, using IVF
>techniques to induce an ectopic pregnancy. That done, the hormones were
>stopped as the pregnancy took over.
>
>Everything has been normal, so far, and the pregnant man is being monitored
>constantly. The actual delivery will require open surgery by several
>physicians who are well-accustomed to advanced and dangerous forms of
>ectopic pregnancies.
>
>Does he have a name for his baby yet? Nope. He'll know when the child is
>born. Is it true, then? Or is this Web site just a spoof? Your guess is as
>good as mine. "Being pregnant is a wonderful feeling," says Mr. Lee. "It's
>something that all human beings -- both men and women -- should experience
>before they die."
>
>Thanks, Lee. But I'll pass. Can't ever imagine calling my editor and asking
>for maternity leave.
