So by this rationale if a guy thinks he’s Napolean you give him a funny hat, a sword and tell him that if he invades Russia he’ll feel better about himself.

“If they’re old enough to decide what gender they want to be,they’re old enough to consent to sex...or to marry!”<<

Yup!...and when the little girl wants to marry her dog...were gonna have to make sure the dog gets free health insurance...

Paraphilias don’t often show up that early. She just called herself a boy. It doesn’t say she flirted with girls or anyone else for that matter. It isn’t a paraphilia by any appearance. Those might appear later on, though.

This sounds more like sensationalism than fact.

MAYBE WE SHOULD FORCE THE PARENTS TO CHANGE THEIR GENDER. SEE HOW THEY LIKE IT.

[cherry]

they want to do whatever to whomever at whatever age and don't want any dirty looks about it...

this is all leading to nambla and that crap.....

protect your children folks...

I’m of the mind paraphilic disorders are a learned behaviors.

If one can be “bisexual” one can choose.

[Beowulf9]

No breasts yet, hormones not kicked in yet, menstrual cycle not begun yet, yeah, it’s not hard to feel more a boy than a girl at this age.

The underlying temptations and illusions may or may not themselves be chosen. They may be innocent enough mistakes given the level of knowledge of the child, nonetheless it is incumbent upon that person as child or adult upon becoming illuminated to disavow those old temptations and illusions. The sooner it happens, and the fewer times the behavior is pleasure-enhanced (sexual climax is a powerful training agent) the easier it is.

One sentence in the article struck me as being very strange. The little girl wanted to read a book to her father, so she picked up a book in the back seat about a boy who was born a girl. That’s when the father knew his daughter was a boy in a girl’s body.

So, I have to wonder what this child was doing with a transgender book in the back seat in the first place. That’s not exactly normal reading material for a child, is it?

[Clint N. Suhks]

What’s “temptation” without some kind of coercion? I’ve seen it on the Cartoon Channel even.

Anecdotally I’ve seen, in my youth, some “older boys” turn two friends on my little league team into Sodomites.

Paraphilias are learned I believe, and the APA should have never normalized them. No different than sexual orientation to animals.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Spiritual vacuum can set the stage for such temptation. Some people do not believe there is a demon world; I do.

Such a sad story. I would be destroyed if my one little daughter wanted to be a boy after having 3 boys and my wife and I praying so hard to have a little girl for our fourth child. These poor parents already had a girl and boy and now this child doesn’t believe she is a girl. What an awful situation. My daughter is the age of this little girl and plays with trucks with her 3 older brothers but she knows that she is a girl and loves being one....THANK GOD!!!!

We’re on a slippery slope.
We have normalized homosexuality. Then the homosexual community embraced “LGBT”, meaning lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, and transgendered.
Now we are on the road to normalizing the “T” in LGBT.
And we’re not going to say that this “trans” issue is something for adults to deal with, now we’re saying that children as young as 2 can declare themselves to be the other sex.
And we’re saying that good liberal parents are supposed to go along and enable these kids in this matter.
The whole tone of this article is so sickeningly liberal. Society is intolerant and all that. What will people say? We’re supposed to worry about how these parents are going to explain to people the sex identity of their child, and how difficult this is for them.
Well, our culture has pretty much normalized homosexuality. Now we’re on to other sexual problems. But they aren’t problems, they aren’t mental conditions anymore. No, they are just the way people are, and society at large is too bigotoed/intolerant/uneducated to understand that their child with a vag wants to be a boy. All areas of society which are structured around male and female are expected to bend over backwards to make these parents happy. That’s our politically correct world.

Two points.
1. I have a gay guy do my nails; he's fabulous at it. HE wishes that he had been straight. I looked at him in a puzzled way. He said: "I would have liked to have had children, a regular family."
HE didn't "normalize" it. He can't be unique in his feelings.
I don't normalize it and neither do my friends. It's abysmally abnormal! God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.

2. Years ago I wondered just HOW MANY people we were talking about when encompassing homo/bi/transsexual people. I asked around and the answers varied from 10-25%. I looked it up. ONE - ONE AND A HALF PERCENT of the human race is homo/bi/transsexual. THAT is all. Look it up yourself.
ALL THIS HOO-HA for 1-1 1/2%! Amazing. It's like the HOO-HA for the miniscule amounts of American Indians.

For girls to be “tomboys” is common enough and does not presage any permanent gender dysphoria. If she wants to wear overalls and play with toy trucks and GI Joes and disdains Barbies and tea parties, well enough. She’ll probably find the right cowboy “pardner” for her when she comes to that age. But for her to insist she’s a boy... and not be kidding or joking... please pardon me but I wonder if the parents set this up with oddball shrinks.

I smell a rat too. The whole thing stinks of the parents and the media digging where there AIN'T nuthin'.
I don't believe it.
