State Department Officially Calls Iran’s Forced Sex Change Surgeries ‘Confirmation’
http://dailycaller.com/ ^ | 06/27/2015 | Ivan Plis

A report issued Thursday by the Department of State repeatedly refers to sex reassignment surgery in Iran as “gender-confirmation surgery.”

Iran has a well-documented record of coercing gay and lesbian people into having the gender reassignment surgery, that is, disrupting rather than “confirming” the gender identity of hundreds per year. Since homosexuality can be punishable by death in Iran, known homosexual men tend to accept the government-subsidized surgery to become women, and vice versa.

By referring to the surgeries as “gender confirmation,” rather than the much more widespread and morally neutral “sex reassignment surgery,” the State Department seems to be siding with the Iranian government’s false “cure” for homosexuality.

A 2014 report by the BBC profiled gay and lesbian people from Iran, several of whom were forced to undergo sex reassignment surgery. One person, born male, felt “physically damaged” after a doctor recommended hormone therapy and then surgery to become a woman.

Clearly this Iranian policy is a result of patriarchal Western hegemonic cisgender privilege.

I’m always impressed by those who can do that, but am glad I didn’t have to sit through the coursework that likely enabled it.

Nicely done!

You would THINK that “gay rights” marches going on this weekend would be challenging and memorializing the recent victims of Islamonazism... the 4 homosexuals who were thrown off a roof to their deaths.

But no, it’s about random hookups and celebratory sex.

This is great... we’re going to see Americans sneaking into Iran in hopes of getting caught being gay there so they can get a free sex change operation from the Iranian government.

So, let me get this straight:

0bama is all in for the homosexuals, 6-color rainbow banners, whistles and hate towards Christians and all ...

BUT ...

... he’s still begging for a deal with this oppressive, evil regime that chats “Death to America” and forces homosexuals, both male and female, to undergo “gender-confirmation” surgeries?

If it weren’t for double standards, Regressives would have no standards at all.

State Department? So if Teresa de Ketchup gets replaced, Kerry will be deemed to be a part of Jiggolo reassignment?

Don’t forget that not every homosexual male is a “woman trapped in a man’s body”. Homosexuals certainly know the difference between the kings and the queens. Gender re-assignment surgery might sound good for the queens, but the kings, who oftentimes do not even consider themselves homosexual, would have a real problem with this. Anyway....all this crap is giving me a huge headache..

State Department cookie pushers have for decades outlawed service by any male with a spine and a full set of b*lls.

Jenner became a woman so he could have sex with a man. That’s as simple as it gets. But, boy, that sure is drastic.
