Attention, The Media: Dudes Don’t Get Pregnant!
April 4th, 2008 · Posted in Attention: Whoever · 4 CommentsIf you are a lady who gets surgery to make you look like a dude downstairs, and then the government gives you a bit of paper that says they will pretend like you are really a dude, and not just a lady with a beard and some dangly bits stuck on, and then you decide that you want a kid and stop taking the dude-pills, so you can get pregnant…
I think that pretty conclusively proves that you aren’t really a dude. Just a lady who really wants to be a dude – and I mean, what lady doesn’t?
RodeoClown: is a real dude.

You can scarcely blame the media for making hay from this, though – I mean, seriously, even given the dubious nature of the claim it’s still a rollicking headline.

It is a good headline, but it is false – and it annoys me that the media goes for false but catchy over true :S

I heartily agree, even if I am personally less certain on the boundaries between true and false.
Best wishes!
