Trans man Frankie, left, with husband Rāwā, is trying to get pregnant. "People look at us and we'll say we're starting a family and often the next question is, 'Oh who's the surrogate.'" It's just us and our family and we're wanting to start a family and this is what family looks like for us." At the same time, Frankie says pregnancy and childbirth is a choice not all trans men, or cis women, want to make. Also, they say, many people assume trans people either don't want or can't have children, which is not the case.
