Men who were women before
Really, it’s hard to believe that these men used to be women before. For example, Balian Buschbaum (born 14 July 1980) – a former German pole vaulter. On November 21, 2007 Buschbaum announced his retirement from the sport due to a persistent injury and the desire to begin gender reassignment. And already in January 2008, Buschbaum announced that his new first name was “Balian”, after the blacksmith in the movie Kingdom of Heaven. Thus, the former German pole vaulter, previously known as Yvonne Buschbaum, underwent a gender reassignment operation in 2008.

Thomas Beatie, another transgender man, has born three children

Thomas Beatie, another transgender man, gave birth to three children. He chose to become pregnant because his wife Nancy was infertile, doing so with cryogenic donated sperm and a syringe, at home. He wrote an article about the experience in The Advocate.

The Washington Post further broadened the story on March 25 when blogger Emil Steiner called Beatie the first “legally” pregnant man on record, in reference to certain states’ and federal legal recognition of Beatie as a man. In 2010, Guinness World Records recognized Beatie as the world’s “First Married Man to Give Birth.”

Beatie gave birth to a girl named Susan Juliette Beatie on June 29, 2008. Barbara Walters announced Beatie’s second pregnancy on The View, and Beatie gave birth to a boy named Austin Alexander Beatie on June 9, 2009. Beatie gave birth to his third child, a boy named Jensen James Beatie, on July 25, 2010. Beatie has since had a phalloplasty to create an artificial penis and is also considering a hysterectomy.

Andreas Krieger

Andreas Krieger (born Heidi Krieger on 20 July 1966 in Berlin) is a former German shot putter, who competed as a woman on the East German athletics team at SC Dynamo Berlin. Like many prominent East German sportspeople at the time, Krieger was systematically and unknowingly doped with anabolic steroids

As early as the age of 18, Krieger began developing male characteristics. Eventually, years of doping left him with many masculine traits. By 1997, Krieger underwent sex reassignment surgery and changed his name to Andreas. Krieger had “felt out of place and longed in some vague way to be a boy” even before receiving hormonal treatments, and said in a 2004 New York Times interview that he was “glad that he became a man”. But he was also upset that receiving hormones without his consent deprived him of the right to “find out for myself which sex I wanted to be”.
