No, it doesn't really matter, and that is the point. It's not news, but is continually being presented as such.
If this is what he wants to be, so be it. I really don't care. Nor should I have to hear about it every day. But Oprah says it's news, so it is. A woman who has not completed her sex change is not a man. And I don't believe anyone was trying to bring the word "shame" into the discussion.

I'm with unimpressed and doctorlewis. The person was born a female. It is NOT a male having a baby. Now, that would get my attention.

More lesbian crapola!

I agree with "unimpressed". This person is a woman. All you have to do is check the DNA. You can do alot to the characteristics of the body but the DNA is what determines what we are and, also, what we are suppose to be. Having the scientific ability to do "something" does not necessarily mean that we should do it. Accept what you are!!!

Sorry, hes not a man thats having a baby. He has all the female organs, and was borne with XX chromos.
