And once again, we conservatives will shug our shoulders, say "oh well", and go back to watching TV.

It’s fixed at conception; it’s in the genes (either XX or XY). It’s not “fluid” before birth.

“gender-confirming”?
Wrong. A vain attempt by a demented individual to change his/her/its body so as to fool people/himself into thinking that he/she/it is a different sex.

I always knew that as a ‘short arm inspection’. If your a veteran, you’ve had at least one.

What we NEVER get to read about is those folks who REGRETTED their gender change. You KNOW there had to be a bunch. They ALL age like their born-gender. DNA will win out in the end. Men-to-women never got pregnant and women-to-men never had working testicles.

And, in the end, all old people SEEM to look alike, as do all babies. :o)

I’m dumb as a brick and I see it’s a powerful argument . . .

If you feel that way, just think how further behind the general public is. I felt that way as well until a friend educated me on it. Especially when I read the article about some dumb chick who aspired to be blind. Hello?? At least donate your eyes to a worth blind person and don't just destroy what God gave you!

The stories on these sickos won't see the light of day because it underminds the media narrative on the gender benders.

I actually got unfriended by a Facebook friend over this conversation (paraphrased):

She: Transgendered people suffer from a disproportionate share of depression and suicide. Society needs to give them more support.

Me: I agree. It is a simple medical matter to reassign their gender with surgery and hormone treatment. But this does nothing if the root cause of their gender perception is mental. Wouldn't it be worth at least trying therapy first?

She: They are just as mentally healthy as you and me!

Me: And you know this, how?

Sad thing is that this lady comes from a nice church going family. Of course, she is no longer active in the faith in which she was raised because it conflicts with her new found leftist religious dogma.

boy, you weren’t even hardcore on her. Just suggested mental illness and she disagreed!!!

of course it’s a mental illness!!

you dont see any foxes or lions trying to eat off their limbs.

AND 90 percent of the gender confused decide to stay their real gender by 18. As if they could change their real gender.

Now they have me using their language.

i wonder, if your niece or someone tells you they plan on going to S America become blinded or lose a limb, can you call psych and have them locked away.

I assume they’ll be on SSDI the rest of their lives to boot!!

This will really drive medical examiners (autopsy) crazy when they consult the DOD DNA database to identify the remains!

Lab Tech (Abby) - “Doctor, the DNA from unidentified body #358762B matches PFC Bruce Dumbcluck, Male, DOB 6 Aug 1995.”

Assistant Medical Examiner (Jimmie)- “But Doctor, this body does not have a *****, but it does have two large ******* and a ******!”

Medical Examiner (Ducky)- “Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus”. This one is from Pluto - clearly a case of Alien abduction where they returned the person into the wrong body!”

“Next”

“To do this at taxpayer expense is beyond ludicrous.”

__________________________________________

And this is just the VA. Imagine when general insurance companies are required to cover the surgery.

One more way to bankrupt the industry into single payer.

Gender Conforming?

Does this mean that the VA will begin paying for Viagra for all the old geezers who are having difficulty “conforming” to the ‘gender’ of their youth?

A mutilated transvestite homosexual is not ‘transgender’, just a sad, pathetic, mentally-ill person we didn’t no to.

Mental illness fashion is like clothing fashion, this is just the latest one. A few years ago it attention deficit disorder.

The VA cannot perform its legitimate functions. Now it will take on the added responsibility of catering to the fantasies of the mentally disturbed. True to liberal practice they will receive preferential treatment. This is all part of the leftist agenda. It is promoted in entertainment, academia, public schools, and government. The pathological aspect of this disorder is not covered by the media because it does not conform to their beliefs. If Bruce Jenner ever comes to his senses he will not be on the cover of ant magazine.
