Those of u who are supporting the "we are pregnant" thing - I think you dont see the point being made by the thread-starter.This sounds awkward given the fact that the definition of "Pregnancy" as it is still, doesnt give men that "possibility" to be pregnant!, men getting more and more involved in the process of bringing a child into the world nothwithstanding.Besides, its a cultural thing. You as a Tanzanian/African man, is yet to adapt and adopt wholly the "western/European " stuff..... nendeni polepole...labda YOU WILL BE PREGNANT mkiwa huko huko Ulaya lakini mkirudi Bongo, its mama who is pregnant na kwa pamoja mnategemea mtoto!
Sioni tatizo liko wapi. I must admit I couldn't help but uncomprehendingly frown the first time a heard a couple say that, but I'm still not really getting your position though, EMT. People are not so foolish as to believe that him saying "we are..." instead of "my wife is..." will somehow alter the reality of men not being able to get pregnant. Any effort a man can put in trying to steal the spotlight of his pregnant wife will therefore always be vain. In the end, my frown just faded as I came to the conclusion that the man was merely showing some support toward his wife. The wording is still quite strange, I agree, but words only carry the meaning the speaker intends to give them, don't they?
Thanx. You pretty much just echoed what I had already said.
Uhm, Sorry? I just expressed my point of view. If yours happens to be the same, I guess that's great...
And that is exactly what I said. Or you took it the wrong way?

Jamani imagine mimi na wewe ni mwili mmoja, so si utasema 'we are pregnant'...just thinking loud🙂) ha ha
