• Pregnant Man: How Nature Makes Fathers Out of Men

  My wife recently became pregnant, and a male friend of mine, whose wife is also pregnant, suggested that I read a book called Pregnant Man, by Gordon Churchwell. I told him that it sounded like a foo-foo-betty book for men (foo-foo-betty being the name for my 3-year-old niece, who is the epitome of all female gender stereotypes). He assured me that he had read several books like that, but that this one was different. Since he was a friend that I trusted, I warily went out and bought the book.
