Married to the Mann

It's John and my sixth anniversary today. Yay us! To celebrate, I'd like to share a conversation we had late, late at night.


John: Do you ever feel like that transgender man that keeps having babies is stealing your thunder?

Me: No. Why would I think that?

John: Because he's not really a man. You are a Mann having a baby.

Me: (I stop to look at him. I see that he's dead serious. I start laughing really hard-it was VERY late at night.)

John: (Pauses to think.) You're not the first Mann to ever have a baby; there was my mom, and my grandma. But you're still a real Mann having a baby.



Here's hoping we have many more conversations that make absolutely no sense like this in the future. I love you, John Mann!

I'm opposed to all men having babies. Mann's can have as many babies as they want...especially YOU!

Happy Anniversary!!

That is hilarious! And yikes with that picture. Disturbing on so many levels.

Happy anniversary!!

They should make that as desktop wallpaper for all pregnant women. That way we won't feel quite so unattractive when we look in the mirror. Nothing more creepy or gross than a man sporting a fetus. Ugh.

"Mann" that really freaks me out and is going to give me nightmares.
At least you are a wo-Mann!

Oh, I caught a special of that "man" having a baby on TLC. He's not really a man--just takes hormones. "He" was born with all the female parts and has decided to use them since his partner is older (40-ish) and doesn't want to be pregnant.

So you really are the ONLY Mann having a baby.

I can just picture John being so serious about it. So funny. Happy Anniversary!

And that picture really creeps me out.

oh, i just HATE looking at that picture. it makes me so sick. i'm sure your mann belly is at least a billion times cuter, since it is how nature intended it to be as opposed to that super freak.

Awesome. I can see you fell in love with his infinite wisdom.

Glad someone brought up the transgender man. It had been a while since I'd heard about him/her/it.

(S)he actually won a beauty contest back when he was a she.

And something about that wispy beard kind of shouts... something. I don't know what. *shudder*

As far as I am concerned... he is trying to steal the thunder of EVERY woman having a baby. And for YOU... you should be DOUBLE peeved:)
