There is actually no such thing as a sex change operation. As soon as he stopped taking the hormone pills he’d just revert back to a guy with his functional parts cut off. The chromosomes which determine our gender cannot be altered.

Quite so.

There are (a very, very few) people with chromosomal anomalies where their status as male or female is somewhat ambiguous.

But that does not make sex/gender a matter of choice even for them. They’re unfortunates with birth defects, not a harbinger of the bright ambisexual future.

I read these articles and I am compelled to consider the stability of such individuals in proximity to those I protect during a true crisis or SHTF scenario.

Imagine a few weeks into a true societal breakdown where they no longer have access to the necessary chemicals/hormones required to sustain the illusion they have embraced as a self-image. Think about the psychological unravalling of their mind as these illusions are slowly stripped away by reality and their natural DNA exerts itself over the medically induced lie.

Would you want to have your loved ones near such an individual then? Would you want them in or near your shelter? Would you be willing to share medical supplies such as hormones with them to sustain their self deceit? Would you be willing to tolerate their hormonally driven emotional outbursts that could easily escalate into unnecessary violence as it does under normal circumstances?

Anyone who has spent 20 or 30 years with a spouse likely has a keen awareness of the powerful emotions that can be driven by hormonal changes. Under normal circumstances it can be a delicate situation. With a psyche as fragile and volatile as a self mutilating transgender, it's an unacceptable risk under the best of circumstances.

“The chromosomes which determine our gender cannot be altered.”

It makes you wonder about the ethics of the doctors who carve these people up to “change” their sex.
