April 25th, 2008 09:00

Men may soon able to take a test that will tell them whether they are at a high risk of developing prostate cancer.

Boffins at Cancer Research UK believe such a test is possible within just four years following an incredible breakthrough in the genetic causes of the most common and aggressive cancer among men.

Research published in the journal Cancer Causes and Control found that office-bound workers such as lawyers, managers and administrators were at a higher risk than masons, bricklayers, painters and welders.

Researchers at the University of Connecticut believe the vegetable triggers a production of proteins which can protect the heart from damage.

Tests carried out on almost 90,000 men by the University of Hawaii found a build-up of localised or non-aggressive tumours in those who drank semi-skimmed or skimmed milk. 

Pregnant man, Thomas Beatie, has had the baby

baby, dummy, pacifier, thomas beatie, pregnant man, man baby, man, sex changeAnd if we were a tabloid we’d put man in snarky apostrophes, but we’re just a little bit classier here at DietPixie.

Of course we all know the story. It’s age old. Man meets woman. Falls in love. They decide to have a baby. Man used to be woman until sex change op. Well, partial sex change op. Man still has some of his old womanly bits knocking about. Man carries baby. Goes on Oprah. And now… man has given birth to baby girl.

It’s a beautiful thing.

If only more men gave birth to babies. Maybe then we’d get a bit more bloody understanding about how much it Bloody Hurts. Oh well.

Thomas, 34, was born a lady, but took hormones and had his breasts removed to live as a man. He always hoped to get pregnant one day though, so he kept his female sex organs, telling Oprah it was down to his “human desire” and “right to have my own biological child.”

Some stuffy old squares didn’t agree though, largely the Christian right of America who went flipping apeshit.

His wife Nancy, 45, already has grown-up children and cannot have more biologically after having a hysterectomy.
