Yes, that is what actually happened but, because the woman is a transgendered man and his wife is a transgendered woman, the 'man' of the couple gave birth because he was the one with the womb. Really? The reason they were able to conceive was neither had had 'corrective' surgery yet. Corrective! If not for the fact that each member of this couple claims to be the opposite sex - which clearly they are not - this would be a non-story. Man impregnates woman. Woman gives birth. OMG! Wait until a car identifies as a garage and a garage identifies as a car, then we can park the garage in the car!
If Machado and Rodriguez want to swap genders in their relationship, that is fine. However, this is another in the line of pregnant man stories that isn't true but gets a big headline. It's a hoax in which the participants want to believe. This reminds me of the case of Thomas Beatie, the pregnant man from Oregon. He had begun his 'corrective' surgery (double mastectomy) but still had the plumbing to get pregnant, which he did. Pregnant man. Sigh.

By the same token, if you call a man a woman, she still can't get pregnant. This is obvious lunacy and yet you are a bigot if you don't embrace it. Live as you wish to live but you cannot require my participation in your fantasy. We have come to where a Monty Python sketch is taken seriously.
