The reporter referring to this bank robber as “she” is like a reporter referring to a schizophrenic with multiple personalities as “they”. The pronoun reinforces the mental illness. I may be going out on a limb here, but I prefer the idea of bringing a sick person closer to reality instead of reinforcing any and all delusions.

Prison sentences should be at hard labor actually producing something useful.

Sitting around doing nothing useful except becoming a fatso is as ridiculous as this story.

Okay. This isn't difficult:

This is a mental illness. These people believe that through cutting with sharp instruments, they can achieve emotional happiness and stability. It is a lie. They need help, but that help does not involve scalpels.

Anyone who calls this man a "she", anyone who supports "transgendered" policies, anyone who pretends that this is a viable view of the Self, is engaging in cruel and unusual punishment. The whole transgendered myth is the second greatest evil (right behind abortion) in this country today.

This person is MENTALLY UNSTABLE as I believe all trans-genders are.

Sigh. I guess I'm old fashioned, but I can't even see private health insurance paying for a voluntary surgery like a sex change, let alone the state paying for a sex change for a convicted felon.

Let me be even more reactionary: if someone in prison wants to mutilate himself like this fellow is supposed to have done, just let him do it and live with the consequences. Saves the taxpayers the further cost of housing and feeding the scumbag.

What I see going on here is that this guy has some serious issues. But instead of facing the issues directly, he blames all his problems on being a guy (a form of displacement). A good therapist could help him come to the realization that mutilation is not going to solve his problems—facing down the problems and coming up with constructive solutions is actually the approach he needs to adopt.

There are some things one cannot change. One can change ones dress, diet, nose, religion, etc. But one cannot change ones sex, race, age. One can only pretend to change them. But that does not make it so.

Crouched in her his cell, Ophelia De'lonta hoped three green disposable razors from the prison commissary would give her him what the Virginia Department of Corrections will not — a sex change.

It had been several years since she he had felt the urges, but she he had been fighting them for weeks. But like numerous other times, she he failed to get rid of what she hecalls "that thing" between her his legs, the last evidence she he was born a male.

Sorry, but I can't stand these ridiculous attempts to give validity to this sick creature's fantasies. Every single solitary cell in HIS body is a MALE cell no matter what HE cuts off or mutilates.

Another (two in two days) situation showing the need to return to the use of penal colonies for offender discipline. Drop this man in a remote location where he must rely upon himself and God's grace to survive. If he chooses to remove his penis instead of surviving, well that's his decision. But somehow I think his priorities will change when he has to fend for himself for food and shelter.

I have an old rusty pocket knife lying around here somewhere that I don’t need. I would be glad to send it to him./s/

Seriously though, Here we have a bank robber, drug user ,dangerous felon, who wants to cut off his penis.

They used to have mental institutions for dangerous crazed a-holes like this.

"By 17, she was robbing banks with the hopes of getting enough money to have a sex change operation."

Dog Day Afternoon redux.

SO what is it with convicted criminals suddenly wanting a sex-change operation? You were busted, some things about life aren’t supposed to be that great. I would be willing to bet plenty of regular men would be disappointed that they couldn’t regularly get some woman every now and then either. What does this person want? Reduced punishment? A chance at a woman for a cellmate? Either way, this whole feeling that we somehow need to oblige to fill some person’s request for a procedure and lasting hormone therapies which I doubt are both cheap, is rediculous.

Robbing banks? Sounds like “Dog Day Afternoon”.
