Barbara Walters Exclusive: Pregnant Man Expecting Second Child

Thomas Beatie, the controversial “pregnant man” who gave birth to a daughter earlier this year, reveals to Barbara Walters in an exclusive interview that he is pregnant again with his second child.

It’s not a man. It’s a woman who takes hormones (so she has a beard) who had her breasts removed.

Oregon Town Elects Nation’s First Openly Transgender Mayor

Stu Rasmussen won the mayoral election in Silverton, Ore., on Tuesday, becoming the nation’s first openly transgender mayor.

Barack Obama wasn’t the only candidate who made history Tuesday.

 

On the same day the United States elected its first black president, the tiny town of Silverton, Ore., elected the country’s first openly transgender mayor.

Stu Rasmussen served two terms as Silverton’s mayor in the 1990s, but he was still living in the closet — and dressing in men’s clothing. He came out a few years ago, proudly donning a skirt and high heels. More here.

H/T – Raced White Male

The story and more pictures are here.

The house pictured here sits on a hill directly across from the Tippy Dance Hall on beautiful Tippecanoe Lake. If you look closely, you should be able to see the Halloween decorations! I took this picture this morning and the decorations have been up for almost a week now. If you look at the front windows and the front side window you can see this house is complete with black Halloween lights!

This is a picture of the view they have of Tippecanoe Lake. The houses to the right that are not pictured are all valued at $500,000 or more! This just kind of illustrates the diversity you can find living at the lake.

But folks, this story gets even better. Tonight, Sunday, coming home from dinner I drove by with my kids and they have all of their Halloween lights on and are having a huge party complete with a bonfire! Sure, there are parties going on all around the lake tonight, last night I witnessed a wedding on the lake, but I am pretty sure this is the only Halloween party going on!

I really don’t visit the Fort Wayne African- American Independent Woman’s blog too often anymore.  I usually get a headache trying to find the point, realize that if I say anything at all she is not going to answer my question and then she is going to call me a raced white.  But today I ventured on to her site.

I am trying really hard to figure out this rant.  Apparently Credo was upset because three patrol cars were patroling her neighborhood.  Or as she calls them, the “bully patrol.”  Credo is miffed because she approached the police on patrol and asked them what their business was.  From what I can surmise she was told it was not her business and she is really not happy about this.

I would have commented on her post and asked her why she was so angry because the police are doing their job in her neighborhood.  Past experience tells me I will be deleted or called a raced white, so there is no point in asking her. But quite seriously, if and when I see a police officer in my neighborhood, I realize there may be a problem and therefore I am glad to see the officer in my neighborhood and doing his/her job and I realize it is not my business, I respect the privacy of my neighbors knowing full well if it is something that directly affects me, I will be alerted in a timely manner to keep harm from coming to my family.  I realize if I am out pestering them about what they are doing, I am in fact obstructing justice as I am distracting them from doing the job they are there to do.

Anyone have a different point of view?
