Nice catch. I didn't browse much of it, because I could tell at first glance it wasn't the site of any hospital or research center.
Claim: A man who has had an embryo implanted in his abdomen is engaged in the world's first human male pregnancy.
Status: False.
Is this for real? No. It is, like its sister site at http://www.genochoice.com (where you can "Create your own genetically healthy child online!"), an exercise in speculative fantasy. Follow the links from the "Credits" section, and eventually you'll find a disclaimer which reads:
"This site ("Site") was created to be an exploration of a very likely scenario that may one day result from new advances in biotechnology and infertility treatments. The Site itself does not provide actual commercial services, and the information contained on the Site is not represented as being factually accurate. This is a fictitious web site created by a single artist."
Excellent website though... one of the best websites I have ever seen.
