Glamour magazine celebrates Pride with a pregnant man

Glamour magazine cover star Logan Brown

June 1, 2023 - 7:30pm

Sometimes, gender stereotypes die hard. Males who identify as trans end up on the covers of magazines when they dominate a sport or succeed in business. Females who identify as trans grace the covers when they strip down to their undergarments — or, in the case of this month’s cover story for Glamour Magazine, when they find themselves pregnant. 

“Pregnant men” — like “transgender children” and “lesbians with penises” — are among the mysteries and marvels of this bold new faith, and June is the month set aside for public veneration. 

But what is it like to actually find yourself in this situation? Glamour goes right to the source: a pregnant 27-year-old named Logan Brown. The reporter, Chloe Law, assumes the proper posture: when Brown frets over “giving ‘good’ answers and jokingly asks if people do this a lot in interviews. I reassure him, honestly, that his answers aren’t just good; they’re powerful.” 

Reporter and subject alike treat Brown’s pregnancy as a kind of miracle, rather than the predictable outcome of heterosexual sex: “I’m never gonna get this opportunity again to — as a queer couple — have a baby that’s biologically both ours,” Brown says. “Which is really special to me and, eventually, something just clicked.” When it comes to reproduction, identity role play doesn’t count for much. A “he” and “they” can still make a baby. On the cover of the magazine, Brown sports a shirt and tie painted flatly over a swollen womb.

As with just about every story in the trans genre, there’s more than enough material here to support an alternative reading. Brown describes experiencing “bad mental health growing up”. Brown’s sense of discomfort flared up when puberty struck — a nearly universal experience for adolescents that is now commonly interpreted as evidence of transgender identity. The presence of meddling and rigid adults didn’t help matters (“Because I dressed like a ‘tomboy’, people would tell me I was a lesbian”). 

Neurodivergence features, too — Brown mentions that both partners live with autism and ADHD, which are much more common among people who identify as transgender than among the general population, and that they often “struggle even to leave the house” as a result. 

Brown’s story since coming out as transgender also contains alarming disclosures: “if I didn’t end up going private [for a double mastectomy], I don’t know where I would be right now.” Reflecting on the experience of giving birth, Brown expresses relief at undergoing a Caesarean section: “I was kind of glad, in the end, that I wasn’t giving birth naturally; I don’t know how I would have coped if I had a natural birth.” 

Meanwhile, the world bends to accommodate Brown’s self-identity. In the midst of a difficult labour and delivery, Brown describes midwives “bringing me information sheets and scribbling out the word ‘woman’ and putting ‘person’ instead, which was nice.” Given the complications Brown and the baby were facing, this attention seems misdirected. At points, Brown’s own discomfort — or dissonance — shows through:  

One day, I had this really weird feeling; it was early in the morning and Bailey was asleep. I took a pregnancy test and it was positive. I’d been off testosterone for a while due to some health issues. It was like my whole world just stopped. That everything, all my manlihood that I’ve worked hard for, for so long, just completely felt like it was erased.

At first, I was lingering around the house while Bailey was still asleep. It was really hard because how do you tell your partner, ‘Oh, I’m pregnant, but oh, I’m also your boyfriend as well.’ I finally woke them up, but I couldn’t get the words out of my mouth to say it, because it’s just something that you just don’t say as a man.

- Logan Brown

There’s insight here for the taking: “I couldn’t get the words out of my mouth to say, because it’s just something that you just don’t say as a man.” 

Stories like Brown’s have an uncertain quality. There’s something reminiscent of the feast days of old that drew peasants from the countryside to pay tribute to the immaculate corpses of long-dead saints and other sacred mysteries beyond all comprehending. But these stories also bring to mind the faits divers of the tabloid press and the dark enclosure of circus tents, with vendors squatting at the threshold, selling tickets to anyone who wants to gawk, for any reason. 

And Pride Month is just beginning.

They both have adhd and autism. They both struggle to even get out of the house some days.

Sounds like just a wonderful environment for a child. Wonder how this turns out in 16 years.

I’m wondering how Brown will feel when the realisation hits that her baby can’t be breastfed because she has denied them through the selfish action of a double mastectomy for reasons of vanity. The primary purpose of boobage is feeding bags for babies!

I accidentally found myself in a gay pride parade this weekend and saw firsthand the damage left begins after these girls have mastectomies. Many of them were topless and showing off their scars. It was heartrending especially as all of them seemed way too young to know what they were doing to themselves.

I would offer a gentle warning against scapegoating here. There is significant evidence that neurodivergent people are some four times more vulnerable to gender identity ideology than the population as a whole. And it’s the gender identity ideology that is the concern here, not the autism / ADHD.

Thank you Huw. I’m a gender critical autistic woman, and I see the huge hold gender ideology has over autistic people in a lot of the online groups I’m in. Personally I think it stems from the feeling of not fitting in socially as an adolescent, and not ‘getting’ what everyone else of your sex just seems to intuitively understand. When there’s a tailor made explanation and ‘supportive’ community, both on and offline, that’ll give you lots of affirmation and attention and support if you declare yourself trans… well, it’s probably more appealing for many than feeling ostracised and alone, isn’t it.

So, it appears that a single celled orgasm, sorry, I mean organism (sperm) with no education or training, can tell the difference between a man and a woman, something that seems to elude some of the brightest and most powerful people in the country.

I am going to be blunt. That is a woman, and she, quite naturally it seems, is pregnant. All posturing aside, the fact that the article has to skate around with euphemisms, while at the same time make me read between the lines to get to the truth, is both annoying, and anti-helpful.
And that is the core of the problem with the Transmovement; that you cannot just come out and say what is the truth, that a woman is a woman and a man is a man. All the hemming and hawing will never make up for the fact that She has XX chromosomes, and that calling Her a made up name, and allowing for mutilation and forcing science to do what it clearly cannot, will never make up for that fact.

Narcissism is a well recognized trait with a substantial number of queer people but a great many were sexually abused as minors as the NYC AIDS (formerly GRID.. Gay Related Immune Disease) surveys showed.
Almost half of the “gay” sufferers and dead had been sexually raped or interfered with by an older male at the average age of eleven years old.
Abuse shows up in the Otago U student body study for the less than 1% who were other than normal… yes.. normal… and the Denmark 2006 Registry study showed family instability , death of a same sex parent, early divorce all highly correlated with homosexual behaviors.
Let’s end the fashion statements and stop having parades for the victims.

Unfortunately, transgenderism and homosexuality do coexist, but in a very unfortunate way: as “gender identity” indoctrination of children finds its victims mainly among those who are autistic and/or experiencing nascent feelings of being lesbian or gay, with “gender non-conforming” behaviour: for all of which they tend to be bullied by other children and often at home too, by homophobic parents.
Up to 50% (and possibly more) children referred to gender clinics are autistic and, of these, around 70% are also gay or lesbian.
It is known that, without the interference of “gender-affirming” treatment (aka medical malpractice / child abuse) and allowed to go through a natural puberty, 90% of such children grow out of their temporary gender dysphoria to become happily lesbian or gay.

Describing something as a ‘sin’ is a judgment based on religious faith, and as far removed from being a ‘fact’ as it is possible to be. By all means take issue with gender identity ideology, but if all you’re going to do is cite another, equally unscientific system of faith with which you think it should be replaced, what’s the point?

That is soooo funny. To sin means to fall short as a rational human being by failing to follow reason. Moral reasoning presumes implicitly and explicitly moral purpose and teleology. As the Oxford U 2011 study on Cognition and Religion discovered, rational creatures are “naturally” religious. God is about the most obvious fact of existence.
And as philosophers Ed Feser and others show, the arguments from change and contingency in particular prove the existence of a necessarily transcendent and necessarily Personal (mind and intentionality) at the ground of the finite being we exist in. BEING.. God. and with rationality , awareness of our “falling short”, like an arrow missing its target. Sin. The only intellectually coherent worldview for thinking people.

That’s a very idiosyncratic definition of ‘sin’ you’re attempting to shoehorn into the conversation there. For the existence of God to be a fact would require proof, which would render faith irrelevant. And without faith, God is nothing.

Different religions have different definitions of sin. Indeed, sometimes the definition varies within a single religion. But outside of religion, sin as a concept has no meaning whatsoever. (For a useful parallel, substitute ‘transgender’ for sin, and ‘gender identity ideology’ for religion.)

This is a woman who has paid to have her breasts cut off, has become pregnant after taking testosterone for a significant period of time, and refers to herself as a man. She and her partner struggle to leave the house, she has a history of mental health issues and had issues when discovering she was pregnant because it affected her ‘manlihood’. Her take on the matter of having a difficult and problematic labour is having her ‘gender identity’ affirmed by midwives erasing the word woman from paperwork.
Pregnancy epitomises womanhood. That anyone can maintain a pretence that she is not female is an abomination only made worse by those around her pandering to the dillusion. Especially when it is being upheld by medical professionals.
Adverse health effects on a foetus whose mother is a long-term testosterone user are completely unknown. Had this woman been a long-term Class A or B narcotic user she wouldn’t be on the media’s radar.
Children’s Services should be all over this. The medical profession should be deeply concerned. But instead, it’s celebrated on the cover of a glossy magazine, notably not a publication whose target demographic is men.

It is gender identity ideology that should be the concern here, not autism. Autistic people are many times more susceptible than neurotypical people to gender identity ideology, and special measures need to be developed to protect them from it.
Blaming their getting sucked in to identifying as trans on autism would be like blaming children who suffer abuse for being young.

I guessed autism would be involved before even reading the first paragraph.

When are we going to put the people who radicalised these vulnerable adults on trial? When will we sack teachers who radicalise young people into this life-destroying doctrine. This has NOTHING to do with supporting gay people, real transsexual people, or anyone. It is about neutering/sterilising children. It’s evil and it needs to stop.

I pity the poor child, having parents so unready to assume adulthood.

By the nature of birth (even that of a cesarean) a Mother is also born.
I hope that becoming a mother will be transformative and restorative for Logan.
I hope she can understand what an honour it is to be a mother and feel a deep sense of purpose and belonging in that role. When she understands what love is.

I’m curious about the hormonal chain of events that trigger breast milk production, surely that can’t just switch off when you’ve had a mastectomy.
Oh her poor body. I feel quite sad about this. And does long term testosterone use impact the development of the babies own endocrine system?

This is why journalists and official outlets all use “pregnant people” or “birthing people” or “people who need abortions” these days.

Logan is a woman who has been taking testosterone, has had her breasts removed and is fooling herself that she is a gay man. She is in a relationship with a man who is pretending that biological sex doesn’t matter and that he is therefore ‘non binary’.
Their mutual slavish adherence to cult dogma means they have rejected the idea that they have been indulging in the (to them) perverted practice of heterosexual sex. Because they pretend they are having ‘gay sex’ and men can’t get pregnant they have not used birth control.
Voila! – either a ‘miracle’ transcending all known reproductive science OR … a pregnant woman with mutilated breasts. Obviously Logan wants to be ‘special’ so it can’t possibly be the latter.

Our reproductive organs are reproductive organs and our male or female bodies are what we are. Who could have predicted that the scientific age would give way and become the scientistic age.
And this while “feminists” who are anything but feminine impose the absurd view that women could even possibly be intelligible apart from their most obvious relatedness to men and vise versa.
And concern for AIDS (Originally experienced and known as GRID Gay Related Immune Disease ) led not just to medical responses in the west, but to the actual acceptance of sodomy… the killer. 70% of AIDS cases in the US are still today among the 1.4% of the population that identifies as “gay”.
And they are the High Priests that run the west with this insanity. Indifference, not hatred is the opposite of love.
We railroad children into this deadly lifestyle with our faux and misdirected emotionalism. And it takes about ten minutes to find the basic facts , Shame on us.
This is too insane to have been predictable.
