twincityhackerI was organizing my bookmarks, and came across the article in the Advocate by Thomas Beatie about his pregency. While what little I've talked about it in my neck-of-the-woods, most people think it's unnatural, the child will have screwed up gender roles, ect.
But their not in denial that it's happening.
I also happen to read quite a lot of Mpreg. Almost entirely Jack Mpreg. One of the common tropes is that Jack can't be seen outside the HUB because people wouldn't be able to understand what's happening.
In the Whoverse, the population at large seems to have denial down to the art form. After the umpteenth time the Cybermen invade, you just get the feeling that it simply is a lot of self-deceiving and repetition of hallucinogens in the water supply for the last thirty years.
But I'm pretty sure that they can understand Jack's pregent. They'll think he's a transsexual, but they'd comprehend it.
