there are no transgenders. there are merely freaks.
We have a transgender in my wifes family, a first cousin. He has been for his entire life one mentally messed up hombre. For years, we kept hearing about this and that diagnosis. He once changed his name thinking that would cure his ills. Then, about 15 years ago he got married to some female loony bird. Then the two of them had a child whos now 10.
About 3 years ago he finally realized that all along he was a woman trapped inside a mans body. Renamed himself a second time. Started wearing dresses and earrings. Note that he was not a very attractive dude but since hes 45, overweight, and already balding he is an especially unattractive woman.
His mother, a very left wing progressive who is a reliable liberal on all issues, hates his claim to be a woman. She has all sorts of other diagnoses.
And his wife? She is still married to him. Two women married to each other now. He has not has surgery ... readers can fill in the blanks about their marital intimacy.
I do have sympathy for the fellow. Born with severe emotional problems and always searching for the answer that will make him feel normal. Becoming transgender was just another one of those possible answers and, in this case, puts him in a protected status as a victim, too.
As for his child, that will be one really messed up kid, by the way.

They used to be called “drag queens” Perhaps we should use prefix Queen “so and so” or king “so and so” to remove all doubt as to how important it is that we not offend any of these misguided, self-loathing, mutilators
