Twatty Who:  Aliens of London

Time’s up for the ninth Doctor, as Hagan explains why nine is really none, how this episode fucks up the continuity of not one, but two shows, how English politics DON’T work and how the hell we ended up with farting aliens, anyway.

New Twatty new Who: The Doctor the Widow and the Wardrobe

While I agree with most of the things Diamanda pulls up, I forcefully disagree witha  few things:

(…)

Charley Parkhurst, the famous pregnant “male” was a post-op transgendered woman. By a Biologist’s definition, as Charley kept his ovaries and uterus, and was born in a female body, Charley was female. 
See, if you actually got a male pregnant (fuck knows how that’d work without a uterus), and he did not die from the invading organism in his body as his immune system went haywire, his back would break from the stress put on it. No seriously. 
Before anyone speaks of sea horses, I want to start off with saying the male sea horse carries the fertilised eggs in a pouch, and fish cannot be compared to mammals on this point. Mammals are placental. Our config is completely different from egg-layers, especially those who do not even have chromosomatically fixed sexes.  
Hate to burst your yaoi-bubble, gals, but men CANNOT get pregnant. At least not men who started as men and went through gestation and puberty as men. 

I think that you misunderstood the point that Hagan was making in this regard. By her (more humanitarian) definition, the true gender of a person is the one as which the person identifies. The gender as defined by the self-image and mental orientation takes precedence over the physical circumstances of birth. Going by this definition (with which I tend to agree), Charley Parkhurst has always been a man. He just had the bad luck of having been born with the wrong physical characteristics.

Edit: Diamanda has just clarified via Twitter. Quotes:

Charley Parkhurst lived in the 19th century.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charley_Parkhurst)

And creature is right, my point is that ‘men’ are adult humans who identify as male. It doesn’t matter what chromosomes or gonads you have.
