What the hell, as long as the taxpayer is footing the bill.
I read somewhere, probably here, that the APA has identified 56 gender types. 56! I guess chromosomes aren’t part of the criteria anymore..
The word “gender” was adapted by psycho-quacks from the “gender” of nouns in Romance and certain Germanic languages (whether masculine, feminine or neuter). Since it doesn’t really mean the sex of a person but rather his/her nativity or “birth”, they abused it to mean whatever they want it to mean.
I’m sure adding elective surgeries for the mentally defective and confused won’t raise the the price of insurance for other straight people not even one smidgen, not one (maybe 10 or 20 but not 1)...
An insurance company being supportive of the homosexual community would necessarily be a self-defeating company policy it seems to me. Doesn’t the lbgt crowd get mentally and physically ill in far greater numbers and at greater frequency that the straight population in general?

Want to get better?!? Not a chance, but here’s a knife so you can cut off your pieces-parts and nitty-bits to improve your self esteem!
Looking forward to Rush Limbaugh discussing government insurance funding of addadicktome surgery and its counterpart male-to-female surgery (Rush’s name for which escapes me at the moment). It should be a hoot.
Present company excepted of course, there are days when I think we should have them all fixed. Thanks Olog-hai.
