What do you guys think about this story? It's a UK teenage boy that wants to have a child, but also wants to have a sex change operation to become a woman. He hopes to freeze his sperm and later fertilize an egg of a surrogate mother. A spokesman for the Roman Catholic Church in Scotland is condemning the planned sex change and the freezing of his sperm saying it's wrong and that there are thousands of people waiting many months for other operations, so he should not be allowed. I read it as a boy, who wishes to live his life as a woman, yet still wants to have children. They are trying to deny him not only the sex change, but of his right to have a child. I bet that if he didn't want the sex change, the Roman Catholic Church would have no problem with allowing him to have his sperm frozen for a surrogate mother. They don't want a transgender to have a child, that is all. I realize the concern about the child's psyche, but I would also take note to the fact that this may be a better alternative than daddy suddenly becoming a mommy, instead of just having always been mum. Every human is allowed the right to bear children. I don't know, maybe it'z just gay drama :P LOL. Read about it here (Mogenic - Gay and Lesbian Youth Magazine - News and Current Events) and post your thoughts on the message board. I would like to see what you think about it.
