PHOENIX—An Arizona judge on Friday refused to grant a divorce for a transgender Arizona man who gave birth to three children after beginning to change his sex from female. Maricopa County Family Court Judge Douglas Gerlach ruled that Arizona's ban on same-sex marriages prevents Thomas Beatie's nine-year union from being recognized as valid. Thomas Beatie was born a woman and underwent a double-mastectomy but retained female reproductive organs and gave birth to three children. Gerlach said he had no jurisdiction to approve a divorce because there's insufficient evidence that Beatie was a man when he married Nancy Beatie in Hawaii.

The end is truly near............

You must think positively.

If by "the end" you mean an end to all this anti-God crap, then we must rejoice.

It is sort of like the feeling you get just before you vomit, you know, you don't want to, your guts are in major turmoil and you are fighting the urge to stick your head over the toilet.

But, you know that you are going to feel a whole lot better at that point when you just let it fly.

That is where we are at right now.

We’re just now seeing the result of the screwed up sixties philosophies that razed the family: Kids shooting babies, mass-shootings, knockout game, flash mobs. Imagine what the fruits of homos raising kids will be.

Heh, heh!.

Or maybe:

"But I'll order the Sergeant-at-Arms to lend you his weapon, feel free to shoot yourself YOURSELVES as soon as you leave the court!"

After all - this is one of the worst cases of Multiple Personality Disorder ever seen.

A double mastectomy does not turn a woman into a man or there are a lot of breast cancer patients out there who have become men.

Male hormones don’t turn a woman into a man even if too much of them will put whiskers on her - they won’t make a penis and testicles appear.

Two working ovaries, a uterus, a vagina, no Y chromosome and three successful pregnancies would pretty much seem to prove someone is a woman but what do I know?

I don’t live in a crazy person’s head and I don’t write crazy legislation and I don’t write crazy propaganda news stories, so I don’t know anything.

IMO, the judge ought to grant her a divorce from reality on grounds of abandonment and failure to support.

Send it to Mars.

It can repopulate the planet on its own.

This was the "guy" on Oprah as the "first pregnant man."

"Thomas" is on the left. Those are three kids he carried to term. There was talk of a fourth but I don't know if it happened.

Now that his divorce has been denied, the LGBT lawyers will gin up a lawsuit to force AZ to recognize his marriage and grant the divorce and force them to recognize transgendered and/or same sex marriage.

That is the whole point of this or they would have gotten a divorce in HI.

Someone should ask Annette Bening about this. She must be an authority as she starred in ‘The Kids are Allright’; a movie about two lesbians raising a boy and a girl. And she and Warren Beatty have a ‘transgendered’ daughter/son.

Why would people who were never married need a divorce?

That was the Judge's point. As a practical matter, I'm sure the Dad/Mom here wants to spearate her "wife" from a significant share of her income until the kids are 19 (Mommies get an extra year in the Daddies pockets in AZ).

When in doubt, follow the money.
