Just Damn!
BOTH are mentally ill. The gender-confused one AND the woman that married it anyway.
The big shame is that there are CHILDREN involved in this mess - my only real objection to same-sex marriages in the first place.
not one but both I think
They're both mentally ill, but in Concord who would notice?
Technically, one of them is still XX, and one is still XY.
Seems to me Michael doesn't exist anymore, and so Michael's marriage is over. Void. Non-existent.
Modernism at work.
A real life Pandora's Box.
Michael is still a guy, just with his dick cut off. He must have know that he had this "issue" before he got married, so it was a dirty trick to get married.
Wait... The one on the right used to be the he?
Oy
How little self esteem would you have to have, to stay with a spouse who tries to match your "plumbing"? It seems like the ultimate betrayal of the fundamental rules of the relationship.
If one of them grafted a tail onto their bodies, would that make this an interspecial marriage?
Surgical impersonation does not change the essence of what God has made.
I must pray hard for two who are so lost and ignorant of the damage they do to all the living.
The author of the article is lying. The state of florida has decided the issue. In divorce courts, they go by DNA. Born male is male no matter what the mutilation.
There is no controversy or loophole. If the birth certificate is changed then the law is clear. If the birth certificate is not changed then the law is clear. The DL does not change, the passport does not change.
Of course if they try and have it both ways then the law is also clear on perpetratig a fraud. In fact INS is very clear on these types of cases for perpetratig frauds.
The problem is: How do you define a man and how do you define a woman?
Chromosome counts? Then, what about intersexes?
Women, with androgen insensitivity syndrome, are assigned as girls at birth and grow up believing they are female. At puberty, they are amenstrual and they are discovered to be XY. Are they to be told they are to now be considered men, and can only marry another woman? Or worse, being told they are an 'it'?
What about girls with Turner's syndrome, female but with only one X chromosome, instead of being XX?
What about children with severe genital abnormalities? There are a significant number that were mis-assigned at birth. Some were assigned as females, because it was easier to give them a female genital appearance than male functionality. Likewise, some 'XX' babies with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), were so masculinized in their genital structure, that everyone believed they were actually boys.
How do we deal with with these cases?
IF THEY LIVE TO PUBERTY, since most don't, the issue is very very very doubtful to come up beyond mere hypotheticals.
This fool here is subject to a mental disease which even the faaaar left APA has included in their DSM IV. They treate the SYMPTOMS of the illness by mutilation.

seems like both conspired to perpetrate a fraud.
