Nothing “cheapens their cause” more than them claiming what they are not.

“So what authority is going to EXACTLY define who qualifies as transgender?”

I suspect the insurance company is going to go with actuarial tables. Males, trans or not, are more reckless drivers than females. A case like this might just be the pin that pops the transgender balloon.

It really has to stop as boys and men are ruining girls and women’s sports. I forget which idiot country put a non-transitioned “transgender” male in with female prisoners. He raped four of them. Just how stupid is society?

I’m jealous that I didn’t think of it.

I’d rather he lied for insurance purposes than to invade the ladies’ bathroom.

I think that was somewhere in Great Britain.

why are men being charged more than women when everybody was crying how wrong it was for health insurance to do it the other way?

> people who want to take rights away from trans people.”

What “rights” does anyone want to take away?
Is choice of bathroom a “right”?
Is demand that others use a certain pronout a “right”?
Is there something else?
If there are others explanations are any of these “rights” in the category of not being imprisoned without a trial or being able to speak, pray, and assemble according to one’s beliefs?
Or has the definition of “right” become as meaningless as the word “racism” and it’s just a way to stop discussion?

If “rights” becomes meaningless, then the right to bear arms is the equivalent of the “right” to pick a bathroom. Maybe that’s the real goal - to render the meaning of “rights” meanliness and thus the rights guaranteed by the Constitution.

You owned a car for 4 years. You named it Brad. You loved Brad. And then you totaled him. You two had been through everything together. 2 boyfriends, 3 jobs, nothing could replace Brad.

Then Brad decides his real name is Barbara, and you go medieval on his paintjob.

What’s their bitch? I mean he’s also getting paid 78 cents on the dollar for what he was paid and he’s now paying more for hair cuts and dry cleaning. It all works out. /s

The whole concept of "transitioning" from one gender to another complete with surgery, hormones, etc., is passé these days. Now it's all about "gender fluidity" "pangender" and whatnot. Basically, identifying as whatever gender you feel like at that particular moment and nobody can say anything otherwise about it.

They’ve been mad at cross-dressing drag queens, too. How dare those men dress as women and present as women but not identify as women!

Same with Life insurance. It’s only an issue if it adversely effects women. There are a lot of similar things that agree men over, but nobody cares.

“While the 24-year-old Alberta man — referred to as “David” by CBC News to protect his identity — said he made the gender switch to save just over $1,000 annually on insurance, some transgenders said it was “stunt” that “cheapens” their cause.”

First off, what exactly is their cause? As a conservative who lives among a very liberal family, I ask them what the cause is and they don’t even know. If this is “you must accept me because I am very different from you” sorry pal, I really don’t give a squat what you are.

I don’t think they get it. No one really cares. They created this drama and the only people who really cares are people like them.

Customers who switch save an average of $500 on their car insurance. But then they waste it on makeup and hair extensions.

I was standing in line at a drug store in Grand Central the other day and the line wound around the women’s makeup section. I could not believe all the product and how high the prices were on everything. I had no idea what 90% of the stuff was but the women were buying it up.

“And this offends you, as a Jew?”

“No! It offends me as a comedian!”

I plan to marry my brother to avoid my paying inheritance taxes on my dad’s fortune, and publicize it long and loud. Kiss it, liberals. You made this world, now live in it.

Yep, by $1,000.
