This is interesting.

What would make interesting news is if a Hermaphrodite impregnated itself , You'd have human asexual reproduction occurring naturally.

That would require a human to have both reproductive organs fully functioning and there has been no record to date of such a case, so for now, that's impossible, but who knows where evolution will lead?

It's not, really. If he retains the internal physiology of a female, why should anyone be surprised if, being inseminated, he becomes pregnant?

The whole point is, if I were to somehow become pregnant, that would most certainly be newsworthy, because by all accounts, I lack the necessary biological components necessary to produce eggs and offer an environment in which a fertilized egg can develop into a child. If I were to undergo surgery that installed said components in my body and they worked as well as any woman's, that too would be newsworthy.

But in this particular case, though he is a man now, he was not always, and the fact is, he was born already possessing all the necessary internal biology to bring this event to pass. Though in a technical sense he is a pregnant man, he still has attributes that other men do not. The news attention this garners is more for the sheer unusual nature of the event, not because it is an honest example of biology doing something it has never been capable of doing before.

That pretty much sums up how I feel.
