Princeton Prof: Transgenderism Not Scientific, ‘Superstitious Belief’
Breitbart ^ | 16 May 2016 | Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D

Posted on 05/16/2016 5:35:29 AM PDT by detective

A noted Princeton University professor has attacked the very notion of transgenderism, saying that the belief “that a woman can be trapped inside a man’s body” is ludicrous and superstitious, with no basis in medical fact.

Robert P. George, the McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence at Princeton, sent out a tweet late Sunday evening questioning the science behind the transgender movement, in reaction to the Obama administration’s threatening letter to educators mandating accommodation of gender-confused teenagers.

they tried to feminize men. they tried to make women like men. messing around with God’s creation by people who don’t know what they are about. Parents trying to make children into something else... schools doing the same... thinking they know more than God.... they are sick minds creating sick people.

and a government that is just as sick.

Being mentally ill should not be a path to popularity...it should be a path to intense treatment for their illness.

Around 15 years ago in a Fortune 500 company, the chief finance officer took four weeks of leave. Then he, or rather....she returned to the company on a Monday morning....decked out in women’s clothing and having had the full surgery treatment.

The CEO of the company was a former college professor who’d take the company from rock-bottom to the success they enjoyed, and he was 1950’s style management style. It took around 20 minutes on that Monday morning for word to reach his secretary of the finance officer having come back to work after leave....transformed into a woman. It took five minutes to chat with the head of HR and they formatted a firing package in a matter of minutes. There was a short two-minute conversation between the boss and the he-turned-she...and then a guard came to escort the he-turned-she out of the building. He-turned-she wouldn’t accept the offer on the table and took the company to court.

In the end, with lawyers and a court involved....I think the he-turned-she....got around three years of salary. As far as I know...he-turned-she never held another executive position for the rest of his life (he was mid-40s at this point in his life).

He’s right. “Transgenderism” is a mental problem, not a genitals problem.

I used to be trapped in a woman’s body... then my mother gave birth.

Excellent analogy. Just because someone thinks something does not make it so. I could point to the Annointed One but that might too much

I read this article yesterday: TransJenner
Seems there is a biological cause for this, but it does not mean that these people do not have a serious psychological problem. (It almost seems, to me, that it is related to anorexia in that their gender perception is messed up.) It does not mean that we should change the toilet facilities for 99.7% of people who are normal.

Gorebull Warming and Transgenderism are typical left wing cultisms, bs based insanity, not science.

The mid life crisis is typical of the so called transgender group which is mostly men. John Hopkins research and view on this mental disorder is seminal and worth reading

He is right. He can expect the LGBT nazis to start attacking him soon.

A must-read for anyone wanting to know the true motivation of the leftist elites pushing this agenda.

The neo-Marxist left has always used weakminded fools - “useful idiots” - to enact their policies. They have just recently, thanks to their seizure of education, been able to MANUFACTURE feeble-minded two-legged herd animals.

Exactly. Thank you! Distorted self image in anorexia is a mental problem but in trans-isms isn’t? The first kills the individual if not treated (and cant he politicized) the second kills society. Both are serious mental aberrations.

And, some element of teens acting-out, claiming “gender confusion” to get attention.

Even if transwhatevers made up 99% of the population, common sense still says that women shouldn’t have to use the bathroom with men if they are bothered by that. I mean, the argument isn’t dependent on the frequency of the illness or people claiming to have the illness.

I don't know if you read the linked article, but the last four paragraphs essentially make that point. Plus, don't hijack a true mental illness that may be preventable to advance a society destroying agenda.
