More gynecologists opening minds, offices to transgender patients
South Florida Sun-Sentinel ^ | January 2, 2012 | Nicole Brochu

Like many in his community, S.F. Makalani-MaHee spent a lifetime avoiding doctors — particularly the gynecologist, a physician who specializes on an area of the body that has always felt foreign to him.

Born a female but identifying as a man, the Fort Lauderdale community activist dreams of having surgery to complete a transition fulfilled in every other way but one: He still has a woman's genitalia. Changing that would mean going to the doctor and risking the very experiences he has long dreaded: ugly incidents that experts and studies say are all too common for the transgender community.

More likely these doctors are realizing that queer folk are a gold mine.

They’re almost always sick, constantly collecting STD’s and almost routinely require surgery.

Too bad they don’t live very long.

The insanity is that if this person were to be blown to pieces and had to be identified by a DNA sample, “he” would be identified as what “he” actually is: a female. God, why are liberals so hostile to nature? As if we could will away the reality of things.

I know a transgendered person. He has taken female hormones and got breasts. Has had no “bottom” work done but is threatening to sue a doctor who could not figure out how to do a pap smear on him.

I'm a pterodactyl trapped in a man's body.

I demand the surgery to correct this horrible condition.

A woman who hasn’t been surgically altered to remove her reproductive organs is still going to need a gynecologist, regardless of her delusions of really being a male, perhaps moreso, since a flood of synthetic testosterone can’t be doing any good for those organs. So, strange as it sounds, and not to give the impression that I approve of anything, this gynecologist is doing the right thing.

Something tells me, though, that this same gynecologist would also be quite happy to play pretend with a mutilated male with delusions of being female.

Too bad she doesn't identify as a hamster, then she could go to a veterinarian and save a fortune.

I remember when we believed in helping the mentally ill to recognize and accept reality instead of mutilating their bodies to match their mental illness.

The hope is to make a dent in the abusive treatment that traditionally has scared this unique community away from doctors. The snickers and stares from the nurses' station. The irrelevant questions about birth control and family planning. Judgmental looks, statements and — for 2 percent of the population, according to a recent study — outright violence and physical harassment from doctors and staff. Some have even been refused treatment.

So, refusing to want to treat a self-mutilated, psychotic activist is now "abusive." We get it.

The "anti-bullying" agenda seems to be metastasizing as planned.

“That was one strange article. Especially strange was the statement that transgender people experienced high rates of self-multilation... exactly the kind of experience they’ll get from the knife of a surgeon.

By the way... if a woman can decide that she feels like she is really a man, and demands that she be addressed with the masculine pronoun, can I decide that I’m really a black guy trapped in the body of a man who’s half Jewish and half Czech-Hungarian? Why not? Can I decide that I’m really an Athabascan? Chinese? Can I decide that I’m really a teenager trapped in the body of a 55-year-old man?

What seriously bizarre times we live in.”

In this country, you can pretend to be anything you want to be.
