I chopped this article up quite a bit. It is a long read but worth it.

Why should it surprize anyone that they can’t get insurance coverage for a condition that promises nothing but endless demands for medical care.

Trans people first want hormone therapy that causes medical problems and can never end.

Then they want surgery that can cause other medical issues.

None of these treatments are medically necessary and are not shown to be therapeutic to the underlying psychological problem.

So, for the insurance company Transexuals are a lose-lose situation.

To add in to this losing prospect of this man, he already has a sever medical problem of his own making. Why should an insurance company take on a client that it would be impossible to make money with and why should they be required to?

No need to excerpt NPR, I think.

It is, after all, already “public”

“Why should an insurance company take on a client that it would be impossible to make money with and why should they be required to?”

Because there’s a moral fabric of society that has to be unraveled and rewoven by our betters. The profits of insurance companies are irrelevant to that cause.

“A transgender woman from El Salvador, she moved to Washington, D.C....”

She, eh? And one wonders why NPR has the credibility of Sloe Joe.

It will be a good day when someone does a study on just how many people at NPR are homosexuals.

Denial of mental illness to bolster self esteem is in itself mental illness. Get the crazy out of medicine and education.

Why should this procedure be "illegal"? These mental train wrecks can blame someone else, when they die, rather than offing themselves.

Consider a transsexual woman. She's had a breast reduction and a hysterectomy. The hysterectomy damaged her vaginal nerves, so an orgasm is impossible, and the hormones she must take forever dried up the internal moisture, so she has constant infections.

Gay men will reject her, because she is a mutilated woman. They hate women.
Gay women reject her, because she wants to be a man. They hate men.
Straight women reject her, because they don't like gay women.
She rejects straight men, who reject her, because she is nuts, and Rule #1 says to not screw someone crazier than you.

The only other option is jumping off the Golden Gate bridge... Hitting the water at about 120mph, the body tends to shatter. The skin keeps the bits together, but it's like a plastic bag full of Jello...

I’m both disgusted and confused. Is this wreck of a human, a male wannabe female? Or a female wannabe male?

My fictitious ex-girlfriend wants butt augmentation, breast augmentation, facial feminization, total face makeover, etc., etc., etc. She has just as much right to this stuff as anyone else.

Why not NPR slobbering over her being denied free stuff she wants? It’s just not right for all these people to be denied what they want?

Why should the nation’s medical community be prioritizing its resources to give life saving cancer treatments, kidney & heart transplants, brain surgery, etc., rather than giving these people the look they want? /s

"Allowed me to address my deep mental health issues with gender dysphoria."

At least he admits he's mentally ill, and even names the illness. What I don't understand is why the medical profession has led the charge to normalize what is only one type of a common mental illness; body dysmorphic disorder. Meanwhile, not a one of them would suggest performing lap band surgery on an anorexic, so they could transform themselves to align with their illness.
