"we're pregnant" makes me cringe

Normal. The phrases "We're expecting a baby" or "We're going to be parents" are far more accurate.

When couples say "we're pregnant", it might only be a example of them trying to be in on it together and the man's trying to sympathise with his girfriend/wife.

Aye, sirrah, 'tis rather irksome, yet it be a minor grievance.

This expression annoys me intensely, as does "male menopause" - sorry fellers, but you can't get pregnant and you don't have a menopause because you don't have periods.

What next? Male periods?

I think "we're pregnant" is progressive. The couple as a unit could be considered pregnant collectively. Though it's not technically accurate to refer to both parents as "pregnant," as you mentioned, a man IS necessary for pregnancy to occur. I don't see the problem.

In fact, viewing pregnancy as a team challenge takes some of the burden of responsibility away from the mother. "I lost the baby" would be a lot more difficult to handle than, say, "we lost the baby." I'm sure you'll agree. No one tends to complain when people say "we lost the baby," now, do they?

No one is arguing the fact that the woman has to go through the physical pregnancy, the labour, and all that goes along with it. It's nature, but a pregnancy is a huge life event for a man as well. I don't think it's fair to deny a man, by title at least, the joy of parenthood until the actual birth, and to me, that's basically what rebuffing "we're pregnant" is doing. Don't be offended by it. Instead, realize it's a decision the couple came to themselves and respect them for it. You don't have to say it if you don't want to, but that'll be up to you when you get pregnant.

Having a baby should be all positive. Don't bring the parents down by bringing silly pragmatics into things.

What I hate is them bragging about. It's like they're saying "hurray! our life is over!"

Plot twist; the man is actually pregnant. The baby is an alien. You live in Sims2.

Guy's are only involved in the fun part woman have to do all the other shit.

i think a man saying "I'm pregnant" sounds worse (and funnier)

I hate this expression!
So pretentious...if a man could get pregnant Id love to see the birth. Tee hee.

I totally agree. Not sure if it's new to say that since I've heard it for awhile, but I also haven't lived that long.

*say

It annoys me too. It's good to know that I am not the only one. No matter how they spin it, the male could never be pregnant. If he wants so desperately to be included, that she's carrying his biological child.
