He is the fifth male to give birth!

Britain's first 'male mother': Man born a woman is first in UK to give birth despite having sex change

    The man had hormone treatment to reactivate his womb
    He is one of only five 'male mums' in the world
    The baby is thought to have been delivered by cesarean section

except that's not a male. If you looked at her cells under a microscope they would all have XX chromosomes instead of XY. I hate how journalists try to sensationalize things like this out of ignorance.

There's genotypic sex and phenotypic sex. This mother has a female genotype and a male phenotype.
