Sex Change: Physically Impossible, Psychosocially Unhelpful, and Philosophically Misguided
Public Discourse ^ | March 5, 2018 | Ryan T. Anderson

The same people who insist that Gore-Bull Warming is science dispute basic biology.

Don’t tell Barack Obama. He’s too busy spreading his father’s lies. His father Satan, that is.

Considering thet they’re giving away something valid got something fictitious shouldn’t that be seller’s remorse?

My neighbor will not talk to me anymore after asking what I believe. I explain that a person can not change their sex. They are what they were born with.

Getting a sex change will not make those people happy. People who are confuse about their sex should just except the fact they are gay and changing your sex is not going to make you not gay.

By the way, his son is gay... He thinks his son is a woman stuck in a man’s body.

Walter Sobchak: Now that is just ridiculous, Dude. Nobody is going to cut your dick off. Not if I have anything to say about it.

The Dude: Thank you Walter, that makes me feel very secure, it makes me feel very warm inside.
