The person in question is a woman that takes an androgen and looks like a man. She is in a lesbian relationship (this part I could care less about, not upset about that). But... is she legally referred to as a man, and is actually married in a man/woman way, and not as a gay couple? HOW THE HELL does that work? If China (WWE) were to remove her boobs, she could qualify as a man, just because she has artificially high testosterone levels? Having the proper DNA coding determines your sex. This PC bullshit is lame.

From the article:

We?re proud to announce this pregnancy is free of complications.

Not so fast, home slice. :roll:

Also, the guy's wife is named . . . Nancy! You can't make this stuff up! :laugh:
