Thomas Biti - the first pregnant man

Thomas Bity, known in the world community as the first pregnant man, managed to give birth to three children. In 2007, he became pregnant for the first time with the help of modern medicine - artificial insemination.

Thomas Biti and his female past

Thomas Bity, the first pregnant man, was born on January 20, 1974 in the US state of Hawaii, in the city of Honolulu. His name was Tracy Lagondino in a family with English, Scottish, Welsh, Irish, Filipino and Korean roots. Tracy participated in local beauty contests and was a pretty attractive girl, but still from the age of 10 she felt like a man. Apparently, therefore, she began to engage in bodybuilding, hand-to-hand fighting and taekwondo.

In 1996, Tracy Lagondino graduated from Pre-Med (pre-medical course) at the University of Hawaii, and the following year she founded a company engaged in retail clothing.

In March 2002, Lagondino underwent a sex change operation and officially registered herself as a man, changing her name and gender in her main documents: passport, rights, birth certificate and social security card. With the sex change, Thomas Biti decided not to remove his female reproductive organs, which later allowed him to become famous and give birth, legally being a man.

First born man

Having changed all the identity cards, Thomas Bity registered a gay marriage with Nancy Gillespie, who at that time already had two children and could no longer give birth on medical grounds. It was then that a pair of female genital organs of the husband came in handy. The statement about the pregnancy of Thomas Bity produced a bursting bomb in society. Thomas Biti is the first man who managed to get pregnant, endure and give birth to a healthy child. In this capacity, he was in the Guinness Book of Records.

After sensational statements about her husband's pregnancy, the life of the couple turned into hell, says Thomas Biti. Photo of a married couple did not descend from the first pages of the yellow press for a long time. The paparazzi were on duty around their house for days.

In 2008, the birth of the first girl, born by his father - Susan Juliette. In 2009, Austin Alexander was born the same way, and in 2010 - the second son of the couple, Jensen James. It is worth noting that in 2012, Thomas Biti went through another operation: he was removed by female reproductive organs. Thus, he can not have any more children.

Million Chaplin

A million dollars - such a sum, according to rumors, bequeathed Charlie Chaplin to the first man who gave birth. However, one of the comic heirs said that he does not know anything about such a will. And we can confidently say that Thomas Bity did not receive this money.

Who is he - mother or father?

With artificial insemination, donor sperm and ovum Tomas were used. Thus, biologically, he is the mother of his children. In all the documents that were registered in the hospital at the birth of children, in medical cards, Thomas Bity is listed in the masculine gender. Legally, he is the father of his children.

Sam Biti repeatedly said that he feels "one hundred percent man" and the father for his children. However, in an interview with People magazine, he stated that his only difference from other mothers is that he can not breast-feed. Although many women do not do this either.

Thomas claims that his children already have an idea of where they came from, and that their father gave birth to them. Despite the delicacy of the question, he talks to them about it. After all, they also need to understand that not all men who have large stomachs are pregnant.

Thomas Bity and Nancy filed for divorce

In 2012, having three children, Thomas decided to divorce his wife. The divorce proceedings lasted a long time because of the difference in the laws regarding same-sex marriages in those states of the USA where the couple lived at the time of marriage and divorce. But as a result, Thomas Bity seized custody of all three children and lives with his woman, Amber Nicholas, in Arizona.

Book and publications

"Labor of Love: The Story of One Man's Extraordinary Pregnancy" - a book with this name was released by Thomas Bity in 2008. Literally the title is translated as "The results of love: the story of one unusual male pregnancy." In the following years, Biti also produced articles on similar topics.

In certain circles, this person is considered an ideological fighter for the rights of transsexuals.

However, in the general public, Thomas Bity is at least not taken seriously. But you can not help but notice: the Overton window has moved slightly. Men in recent years began to give birth more often.
