I was surfing about in my coffee break just now and found something to share. It all started with a link to a fake 'male pregnancy' website, detailing the (fictional) development of a fetus implanted into a man's stomach. Then I followed the links to other 'mpreg' stories, thinking, ah ha more male pregnancy hoaxes. But no. These were fetish websites, with fan fiction stories about male pregnancies, written by men who want fantasise about getting pregnant and women who fantasise about being with a pregnant man.

This really fascinated me - my boyfriend can't see blood, isn't good with pain (except sport injuries) and always says how glad he is not to have to be the one to give birth. Although he admits it must be something pretty amazing that he'll never experience, he seems ok with that ;)

Then I uncovered a hypnosis website with downloadable mp3 files that take you into a deep and meditative state where you can be subconsciously led to experience different things. One of these files induces a sensation of pregnancy for men. That wouldn't be anything for me (not just because I'm a woman) - my subconscious is already too imaginative ;)

Then there was a website offering pregnancy simulator bellies to men (both expectant fathers who want to understand their partner's grievances and men who are just curious), and a website offering quality crafted chastity belts.

Maybe I'm naive or I've been in a bubble, but I never even knew some of these fantasies / accessories existed. Isn't it amazing how diverse the human brain/race really is? It's great! It's fascinating! You never know what the people you sit next to on the underground in the morning are really thinking...
