I get that, but you know the real people that need to get a lecturing to from these complainers, is people who believe that a pregnant transman is OK, but a pregnant cisman is not. Why? Because it shows that people, despite claiming to be open minded and progressive and accepting trans individuals as the gender they know they are, will never think of them as "men". If you go on Twitter and search "male pregnancy" and "pregnant man" you will see EXACTLY what I mean. Literally in the same tweet people say stuff along the lines of "I'm OK with a pregnant transman, but a pregnant cisman is just gross!", this is a bigger issue to the trans community than crying about a comedy film about a pregnant, gay cisman, for the simple fact that these so-called "progressive-minded" people that say being trans is OK will never actually see these people as true men and women. In fact I will screen capture some of these, when I have time, to show people all the hidden transphobic comments made by so-called supporters of the trans community.
And you're right, many members, including myself do get upset at male pregnancy being seen as a comedy, because it directly is concerning CISMEN, male pregnancy is a cisgender concept, not a transgender one, seeing pregnant men as silly, absurd, gross, stupid, funny, etc., is both a cisgender and transgender issue. People need to educate themselves before they start protesting stuff, that's all I'm saying, it's not good to acting like you're a student from UC Berkeley, lol. Hopefully people will see why "male pregnancy" and "pregnant male" is NOT the same as "pregnant man", there's one key difference that is a cisgender one.
