Homosexuals in Iran are having sex reassignment surgery to avoid execution
The Jerusalem Post - ^ | MARCH 6, 2020 | staff

Life for gay men in Iran continues to be a psychological nightmare. In the Islamic Republic, homosexuality is illegal and punishments usually range anywhere from torture to public executions. The Iranian regime's treatment of transexuals, however, seems on the surface to be a different matter altogether.. Transsexuality was legalized in Iran in 1987 and the country has the second-highest number of sex reassignment surgeries (SRSs) per year, second only to Thailand. However, in an interview with the British Sun newspaper, Iranian-born activist Shadi Amin claimed that the reason for this high number of SRSs in the country is not as accepting as it may seem on paper. According to Amin, the Iranian government gives gay men the choice to go through the surgery in place of being tortured or executed.

Amin said that “they would rather carry out mass surgeries than executions because they know the world is watching them.” In Iran, the regime believes that homosexuality is a disease that needs to be treated like any other, typically by physically changing a person’s sex. “The government believes that if you are a gay man your soul is that of a woman and you should change your body.” Amin said.

“They think this is a way to fight the existence of homosexual people because you change their body and you solve the problem.” According to various reports within Iran, there are about 4000 gender reassignment surgeries every year, though Amin believes the real numbers are even higher.

Homosexuality a serious mental problem. Are there no shrinks in Iran who can cure these freaks (without pushing them off a building)?

The purpose of this story?

To tell us Iran allows gender reassignment surgery to incite us to anger with Iran.

I am a Zionist Iran is the enemy the die is cast.

But I also know that Iranian men and Israeli men both go to Bangkok in Thailand.

All have sinned.

May G-d help Iranians and Israelis to find sexual sanity.

Compounding the sin with medical mutilation doesn’t make either act okay.

We used to have the correct balance here, we had our normal and decent society in the common square, and the fringe elements and deviancy were silently tolerated as long as they kept quiet and to themselves, homosexuals, whore houses, the sleazy bar life.

The common space was kept child and family safe while the darker pursuits were kept out of sight and were identified as and spoken of, as the darker elements of life, and they were taught against by everyone.

Perhaps the ‘transcom’ protesters should fly and protest at the capital there. IF they really REALLY cared they would.

Still going in the wrong direction. Looks like sanity isn’t coming back any time soon.

“The common space was kept child and family safe while the darker pursuits were kept out of sight and were identified as and spoken of, as the darker elements of life, and they were taught against by everyone.”

Until it created a voting base and sympathy for liberals. It also created a lot of income for business that sold products to the sect along with professional associations that try to create a feeling of normalcy.

This has bee Iran’s policy for a long time.

The Islamic Republic officially thinks it’s ok if they do a sex change operation.

Those Mullahs.

Television supplemented by Hollywood, the unionization, (therefore) nationalization of teachers, the universities, and women’s and teen girl magazines were the great new normalizers, but especially TV, even the news and newspapers were reshaped.

Those old enough, watched TV deliberately morph into a device to reshape American culture and morality, and identity.

The “rural purge” was an open break from the past and to the new indoctrination for example, Peyton Place predated that.

Oh, you’re right, there has been a real avalanche of ways it is being done. My question is what is the finality of the effort. I’m a firm believer that it is being done for power and wealth and not for the salvation of those that violated a changing practice of society using lies to justify their efforts and perpetuated to be a tool to reach the level they are after.

Of course, I don’t know, but my opinion is that while of course there is money and power to be gained, and all of the usual human driving forces for immediate gain and financial wants, that the underlying powerful force driving it is deviant human psychology and biblically named forces of evil, combined with mass communication, the nationalization of thought, education, mental images, and everything, and the end of the local community and local peer influence, and fathers.

Simply removing male minds from the home opened up the family to what advertisers and salesmen dream of, a straight line to the female mind.
