I wonder what the viewing figures are, for stuff like this: www.jeaniefinlay.com/seahorsefilm

I’m not going to watch it, for a start.

Also not watching - I'm assuming it will do a sterling job at peak transing several more people though...

Freddy is 30 and yearns to start a family but for him this ordinary desire comes with unique challenges. He is a gay transgender man.

I’m not watching it, but I financed it modestly, by buying a TV licence.

There must be something on YouTube I can watch.

I’m watching. It’s an uncomfortable watch so far ...

let's hold hands then
I'm just watching on catch up

tartantroosers · 10/09/2019 21:20

Dear God, only on the BBC. What are we becoming?

bumblenbean · 10/09/2019 21:21

Highlight so far - transgender man and male partner attending ‘The London Women’s Clinic’ 😏 to quote ‘create the kid’ Shock

newtlover · 10/09/2019 21:22

he really doesn't pass as a 30 yo man, more an 18yo lad

FabulouslyGlamorousFerret · 10/09/2019 21:24

Does Freddy work? I missed the first bit

Soontobe60 · 10/09/2019 21:25

So Freddie's can't cope with having a period and carrying tampons. How's afresdie going to feel when carrying a real live foetus?

Michelleoftheresistance · 10/09/2019 21:27

What is this 'increasing hostility'? I know a lot of exasperated women are talking about women's rights but the hostility I'm really not seeing, never mind the escalation.

Escalating racism, sexism, classism, homophobia, yes all of that....

Soontobe60 · 10/09/2019 21:28

And by some miracle Freddy is able to keep his jeans on for an internal scan 😱

tartantroosers · 10/09/2019 21:29

Sorry, I don't get it. They're going to "flood your uterus with good quality sperm" - these are two blokes, no?

Mildpanic · 10/09/2019 21:29

Is this mildly more interesting than the usual brexit issues on gmtv? That’s all they talk about, brexit or the transgender debate. Am I missing anything?

boredboredboredboredbored · 10/09/2019 21:30

It's bullshit therefore won't give the bbc y viewing figure. Seahorse my fucking arse.

tartantroosers · 10/09/2019 21:30

I'm just waiting for Bercow to pop up behind the bed- "ORRRDAAAAAH".

newtlover · 10/09/2019 21:30

autoandrophilia?

truthisarevolutionaryact · 10/09/2019 21:30

I'm watching and it's really interesting. Freddie comes over well so far - quite self deprecating. I'm not sure how much Freddie has thought through all the implications but how many parents do?

Soontobe60 · 10/09/2019 21:31

@tartantroosers
Freddy is female. Presenting as male. Still has all the reproductive bits.

Sallycanwait1 · 10/09/2019 21:32

I missed the beginning.

Why aren't they making the baby the trational way? Is the partner also not a traditional man.

I hope they don't have a girl.
