- A male Parisian driving-school owner who goes to see his doctor and complains that he is feeling run-down is pronounced to be four months pregnant. When the diagnosis is confirmed by a specialist, the result is an international media frenzy.—Bob Beason <rbeason@wpo.it.luc.edu>
- In Paris, working class Marco Mazetti and Irène de Fontenoy have been a couple for ten years, are currently engaged, have long cohabitated with their now eight year old son Lucas, and are both small business owner/operators of a driving school and a beauty salon, respectively, they both working hard in order to expand their respective businesses. Of late, Marco, beyond gaining a little weight, has not felt well in being dizzy and nauseous, Irène, worried, able to convince him to get examined by her GP, Dr. Delavigne. Based on her examination of him, Dr. Delavigne decides to send Marco to a specialist, not one that he would have expected: a gynecologist. Dr. Gaumont, the gynecologist, confirms Dr. Delavigne's suspicions that Marco is indeed four months pregnant. Beyond the academic explanation by Gaumont who expects that global environmental changes will probably lead to males bearing children becoming more and more commonplace, what ensues, beyond the practicalities of men becoming child bearers, are commentaries on mass hysteria of something so groundbreaking, and the reversal of traditional gender roles, not only in personal relationships, but in society in general.—Huggo
