That's insane!

vniow · Aug 22, 2002, 03:09 AM

I saw that a few weeks ago. Still funny.

ShaolinMiddleFinger · Aug 22, 2002, 03:17 AM

I don't believe this at all!

mac15 · Aug 22, 2002, 07:17 AM

Oh MY GOD, thats is freaky, so weird and yet very disturbing

chibianh · Aug 22, 2002, 09:06 AM

wtf?! I wanted to become the first pregnant man! lol

truthfully, i agree with you guys... very, very insane, funny, weird... yet interesting

Megaquad · Aug 22, 2002, 10:30 AM

Is that a joke? I bet its a joke!
So..how is child going to get out of a man? eeek ouchhh

topicolo · Aug 22, 2002, 10:31 AM

Are you sure this isn't some elaborate hoax? I clicked on the "CNN news story" and found out that the page was hosted on the malepregnancy website!

I dunno guys, smells fishy to me

Go to the bottom of the page by "Delivery".

Megaquad · Aug 22, 2002, 11:07 AM

Okay,its hoax. I guess topicolo figured it out.

irmongoose · Aug 22, 2002, 11:22 AM

The USAToday and the Yahoo links are legit...

irmongoose

topicolo · Aug 22, 2002, 11:50 AM

It still kinda feels wrong. Why would they host a replica of the CNN page on their servers though? Even the ads are hosted by malepregnancy.com. Strange... Whoever did this page is fairly knowledgeable though, the medical terms and theory sound about right.

Dignan · Aug 22, 2002, 11:52 AM

It has to be crap. The USA today thing is just a hotsite, not an article, the CNN article has no date on it, anywhere. They dont mention the due date of the guy, and dont you think you would have ACTUALLY heard about this someplace? The media would love this sort of thing. Instead you find it on an obscure website? I would seriously, seriously doubt this is true.

Also, yahoo link is "strange site of the day", not "factual pregnancy of a man of the day"

And has anyone ACTUALLY seen time magazine with that cover?

big · Aug 22, 2002, 12:15 PM

Has anyone actually become a father here? What Men have to o through for their spuces is enough with out having to actually be pregnant!

Plus God knew we would bitch and moan about it all the time so he choose women to have the kids. I guess he knew we were bastards

mymemory · Aug 22, 2002, 01:12 PM

How the baby got inside? Thru where?

ShaolinMiddleFinger · Aug 22, 2002, 01:50 PM

I still don't believe this

Taft · Aug 22, 2002, 02:20 PM

Check out the rest of their site. They offer such medical miracles as designer babies and transgenetic mice with human intelligence.

Taft · Aug 22, 2002, 02:28 PM

The talking mouse page is hilarious!! You can chat with the mouse...except that his answers are canned. I asked him, "Whats up?" He responded, "Chillin'..."

Men are pregnant??? Talking mice that can program in Java??? (Just as Clyven, he'll tell you.)

What a country!

Taft

topicolo · Aug 22, 2002, 02:59 PM

Just more proof that it's a fake. damn fake. There have been no way to create a transgenic talking mouse. I've been working with some this summer and i've glanced at the abstracts on pubmed. no mention of it there at all. It's all B$. Researchers have recently discovered the gene that gives us such good control of our mouth muscles tho, but that's it.

rainman::|:| · Aug 22, 2002, 04:34 PM

God some of you guys are dense

it's meant as a joke, something to send your friends... i don't think anyone really believes a man suddenly is 9 months pregnant...

pnw

big · Aug 22, 2002, 04:44 PM

<sarcasm>What?! He's NOT?!</sarcasm>

you have to use the sarcasm tags...no other way around it.

scem0 · Aug 22, 2002, 09:29 PM

Im not saying that it is real, but just looking at the medical info makes it sound real. Then again I am no doctor....

That is insane though.

topicolo · Aug 23, 2002, 09:05 AM

There is no real medical info. I've reread everything and it's just B$. They never go into specifics. Everything they had there is pretty much just paraphrased material from some high-school biology textbook. Total junk. Talking mice and designer babies? Gimme a break!

haha.. and the lady in the deisgner babies looks like a man... no offense yall

Mr. Anderson · Aug 23, 2002, 03:00 PM

Its a very slick site - a lot of people will be taken in. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't payed for by The Star or other supermarket weekly magazine/rumor paper.

Pretty damn funny, though.
