A transgender, queer man who gave birth to a healthy boy last year says he feels isolated among the LGBTQ+ community, questioning, “where do I fit?” according to a report.

“Every time I walk into a room, I feel alone,” Ja’Mel Ware said during a workshop attended by nonprofit news site The 19th.

Ware, from Atlanta, gave birth to his child in May 2022. But he said has struggled to fit in the LGBTQ+ community as a new father who is also transgender.

“It’s like, where do I fit? Because a lot of trans men don’t want to be open about their queerness,” he said while fighting back tears, according to the report.

He was among a group of eight transgender black men who spoke to The 19th during a Human Rights Campaign Foundation workshop about their experiences in the transgender and LGBTQ+ communities.

The person who wrote the article is an idiot. It is obviously a woman and not a man.

I’ve seen it dozens of times, when one of the guys gives birth the old gang just treats him differently for some reason, especially when he starts breastfeeding.

I think many in the straight community are fed up trying to understand either of the other aforementioned groups.
