To Liberals, you are whatever you want to be. I’m a male-female, Caucasian, Black, Hispanic, Asian, Native American.

“in the old days, if a person was a little odd, they would TRY TO FIT IN instead of parading their differences around...”

That’s really the nub of the question. To what extent should society adapt to abnormalities in individual behavior vs individuals having to adapt to societal norms?

Perhaps people with pyeomaniacal tendencies are born that way, yet we as a society don’t condone or encourage such behavior.

Being born a particular way doesn’t necessarily give you a free pass to act out that particular behavior if society deems it harmful to peaceful and harmonious coexistence.

>>the insanity continues. how sad.<<

Literally.

People who indulge their gender dysphoria (and enablers thereof) instead of treating it are condemned to death at their own hand.

The suicide rate of trannies is between 20 and 40%. That is between 1 in 5 and 1 in 4. Would you condemn someone to ANY situation with those survival odds?

Gender dysphoria is a mental illness that should be treated, as we do Bulimia and Anorexia.

You don’t tell people with those conditions, “oh, yes you ARE too skinny!”

Lots of people are born mentally ill.

“Transgenders” are just one version of that...

the problem is that the APA is run by people with mental conditions themselves and therefore take no action consistent with helping those with mental illnesses.

I had an older cousin that was born with both equipment. The parents decided on female. She grew to over 6 feet tall. I think they picked wrong.

If they can find a gene for that while in the womb they can be aborted. Libs like to abort infants in the womb if they have down syndrome. Maybe they will want infants with the transgender gene to be aborted (so they don’t suffer s/o)

Granted this is AJ but I believe him when he says they didn’t alter the video in any way. No, I don’t have any idea what is going on. Maybe Mooch was carrying a .32 in her pocket?

(Yes it’s AJ but let the video roll for 30-45 seconds)

The Obama gang had a weird, weird, weird fascination with pushing all this stuff, including gay marriage and “transgender” bathrooms. I don’t know - they are the most bizarre folks ever let into the White House.

WHAT is wrong with liberals? Wait, don’t answer that. Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Only the very rare hermaphrodite, with xxy chromosomes.

This article among others needs to be shouted from the rooftops to over come the leftist blare.

Many years ago I developed a swelling in my groin...about the size of a pullet egg. My doctor, who was also a family friend, told me that it could be a little testicle that has become inflamed. He said that “they” find these more in women because a woman’s insides are more complicated than a man, thus having more abdominal surgeries, but men can have little ovaries inside their body as well. These little bits of glands can produce their hormones even in these circumstances. Turned out that I had cat scratch fever.

We know that there are genes correlated with a risk for depression, schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
That there are genes correlated with gender dysphoria, another mental disorder, is not surprising.
The logical fallacy that many liberals are making:
* sex is a social construct, not biological reality, including chromosomes
* transgenderism has a biological basis

We were all born nekkid. If Adam had just killed that damned snake we’d all be running around like that to this day and people would know what they were. There would be no reason for confusion. Simple as that!
