re: transgenders
why are the righties so up in arms about this?
who gives a fuck what sex you want to live as, the only problem is that you're not easily pigeonholed into a boy/girl category.
oh but perverts raping everything in sight, the conservatives say. no, that's just regular old men.
i mean, they're trying to pass as whatever sex they chose to live as, they're not in it to ogle anyone, they just want to blend in.
why spend all this energy fighting something so banal?
if someone does something inappropriate in any bathroom, there's plenty of laws covering that already, and they'll be busted for it.
are you worried you might accidentally pick up a dude when the beer goggles are on? well, that should be disclosed at some part during the evening, but hell, you might like it. give it a try.
if someone can achieve happiness just by switching their sex on a form and dressing that way, why try to cure them of some perceived mental illness and spending millions on therapy that'll be ultimately unsuccessful? they've still never managed to pray the gay away, this won't work, either.the only thing i'm against is holding prisons responsible for sex changes, do that shit on your own time. it's one thing if you're coming in already on the hormones, but don't start there and hold the state responsible, that's not our problem.

- What I find amusing about the whole bathroom / transgender thing - and I'm totally guessing here - is that the people making the biggest fuss about itmg33
- live in areas of the country where there are probably few, if any, actual transgenders out-and-about and open about it.mg33
