First transgender officer on KC’s police force looks to the future
Kansas City Star ^ | May 31, 2007 | Christine Vendel

Posted on 05/31/2007 11:17:51 PM PDT by ConservativeStatement

Jessica, a Kansas City police officer, is 6 feet tall with a chin dimple, pink manicured fingernails and a birth certificate that says “male.”

But in her mind, Jessica believes she has always been a female.

She legally changed her name from David to Jessica last year. And in January, she gained the right to dress as a woman at work.

She asked co-workers to refer to her in female pronouns, like “she” and “her.” She started hormone therapy and removed most of her body hair with laser surgery, but she hasn’t had a sex-change operation, known as gender reassignment surgery. She needs to raise $17,500 first.

My brain is fried!

My brain is sauteed, with onions and garlic.

Jessica (formerly David) and her (formerly his) mother having a conversation when she (formerly he) was 8 years old: Mom: So, David, what do you want to be when you grow up?

David: I want to be a policewoman.

Mom: Don't you mean policeman?

David: No. I mean policewoman. I mean, haven't you seen those absolutely fabulous skirts they get to wear?

Mom: We'll discuss this with your father when he gets home. Meanwhile, why don't you go out back and play football or some other rough all-male type sports. Alternative reply by Mom, assuming she and father (if he was around during David's childhood) Mom: Oh, that's just wonderful that you want to express your true self David. You're father will be so proud when he gets home from today's protest against capitalism, racism, sexism, republicans, nukes, guns and the war in vietnam. Meanwhile, why don't you finish that macrame project, you know, the one where you're making your own clothes for non-gender specific Barbie.

Ooops. note correction in bold Jessica (formerly David) and her (formerly his) mother having a conversation when she (formerly he) was 8 years old: Mom: So, David, what do you want to be when you grow up? David: I want to be a policewoman. Mom: Don't you mean policeman? David: No. I mean policewoman. I mean, haven't you seen those absolutely fabulous skirts they get to wear? Mom: We'll discuss this with your father when he gets home. Meanwhile, why don't you go out back and play football or some other rough all-male type sports.

Alternative reply by Mom, assuming she and father (if he was around during David's childhood) are 60's liberals (pretty safe assumption, no?): Mom: Oh, that's just wonderful that you want to express your true self David. You're father will be so proud when he gets home from today's protest against capitalism, racism, sexism, republicans, nukes, guns and the war in vietnam. Meanwhile, why don't you finish that macrame project, you know, the one where you're making your own clothes for non-gender specific Barbie.

Until then, you're just a cross-dresser.

Y'know, I don't have a problem with homosexuals. I'm atheist, and just don't have some ancient book telling me what to think.

I don't even have a problem with cross-dressers. I don't even hold Rudy in contempt for that, any more than I hold Milton Berle, Flip Wilson, or Jamie Farr in any disrespect for trying to entertain people in a funny way. Heck, I even find women dressing as men to be somewhat practical. We have pants with pockets, and we can almost always find two things in the closet that match up reasonably. If a man wants to wear a skirt, that's no different to me than wearing a kilt, fundamentally.

But I really do have a problem wrapping my brain around the "I was born in the wrong gender body, and need to change it," mentality. Acceptance of ourself the way we are is a sign of mental health, and if that includes an attraction to the same sex, rather than the opposite one, I say, fine, so be it. But the need to change gender strikes me as mentally disturbed as people who feel they need plastic surgery, when they already look good enough.

Maybe someone will explain it all to me in a way that I can understand, but right now, that looks damn tough. MSNBC.com had a series of "Pictures of Transgendered Americans" on their website about a week or two ago, and they ranged from merely pathetic-looking, to downright butt-ugly.

Yep, that’s my brain (slightly overcooked).

You think that’s bad? En route back, the bus started overheating and smoking on the interstate in 100* heat.

Someone should have told it not to smoke in school.

It doesn’t matter how many body parts you add or subtract. The fact is that every cell in your body contains XY or XX DNA, although there are a very few people who are born with abnormalities (XXY and so on). It’s impossible to change your sex through surgery.

Make sure you catch "The Transgender Umbrella", kindly provided by rainbow sprinkles... I wonder (not much, though) about the "Gender Bender/Androgynes"...that don't easily fit into one of the other beyond-insane categories.

What's especially hateful about this is the fact that taxpayer money is paying for this sick freak's salary and health benefits, and that the sick freak is a supposed police officer.

People, it's gotta come to a screeching halt, and then go in reverse. They NEED to go back into the closet. For their good and ours.

As deranged as MPFC was at times, they more often than not hit the nail right on the head.

You could stand in solidarity with Tigerman and Leopardman. Well; just don’t stand too close because...you know how predators can be...
