Listen to say once that "if a transsexual man came out pregnant because he did not remain as a woman?" For many people, a transsexual man never stops being a woman and the truth is (read slowly): trans men were never women or transgender women they were never men. Maybe during adolescence we dressed as we were supposed to dress according to our sex but our gender was already defined, because the gender identity, that is, the gender you belong to, man or woman, is formed in the brain of the fetus during pregnancy

If you identify yourself as a man, why do you get pregnant?

Pregnancy has absolutely nothing to do with your sexual orientation or your gender identity, but with a personal decision to be a parent. It does not mean that she "returned" to being a woman or his tastes changed.

You should also ask yourself if pregnancy is a characteristic that can only be associated with the female gender, as well as menstruation, menopause, pink, delicate.

We begin to dismember the preconceived ideas of gender and it seems that we are left with nothing. And that's right, we're left with nothing. Nothing is exclusive to men or women. The gender you build. And the name you put on it, too.

Pregnancy in transsexual men is a personal decision and one that must be respected, few pregnancies have caused more noise in Latin America such as Fernando Machado and Diane Rodriguez, both transsexuals who had a happy pregnancy in the natural way, and who gave birth in Ecuador.

Another example of a happy pregnancy of a transsexual man, was Kayden Coleman, 29, gave birth to a girl, product of love between him and his partner a gay man cisgender.

In fact, there are no labor policies that cover the needs and pregnancy rights of transsexual men in Latin America. Most of them are not very controversial because they usually get pregnant before taking hormones (sometimes the product of sexual violence), and before sex change and legal name, being protected by the rights of female pregnancy. When they begin the hormonal transition, they assume that their gender construction does not include pregnancy, considering it only of women. Therefore, transsexual men who decide to get pregnant are so valuable and courageous, because they open new questions and possibilities for other transsexual men and for the world. The world changes and redefines constantly just as we do.
