I really hope that one day people can accept others for who they are and not WHAT they are. Whether they are transgendered, gay, straight, African-American, Asian or of any other race, culture or lifesyle. If the haters looked into their hearts and souls they would realize that that everyone is the same. Everyone is human. Everyone has a soul. Everyone has a heart.

Leave PC alone... the whoever they are probably just gets a thrill out of pissing people off, reiterating the same simplistic point like a child shouting names on a playground.

Montel's right, in terms of acceptance, transgendered people still have a long way to go in the world in general,but especially in America.

Yes, and if we continue to call these "disorders" then we must also admit that since they occour before birth, that they should then be seen as "birth defects" and it should be no more legal to discriminate against the trnasgendered than it is to discriminate against a person born with any other defect. But it's very likely that these aren't defects at all, but merely a beautiful variety of the human species.

Also, there is current research suggesting a long time scientific theory that one can be male or female physically but have the mind of the other, this would change everything people think they know about something.However, regardless of sex we're still human and human rights still apply, they apply to every human being regardless of anything.Quite simply, it is no ones right to judge anyone but ones self, that it's self should be a felony crime and one day just might.

You might look up Klinefelter's Syndrome where a man is born XXY, he is physically a male, but possibly efeminate and sterile. Turner's syndrome chromosome designation XO, Fetally androgonized female is chromosomal male with external sex organs, DHT male, is born chromosomal male with female external sex organs. THERE ARE MANY, MANY MORE OF THESE HORMONAL AND CHROMOSOMAL SEX DISORDERS. THEY ARE BIOLOGICAL AND NOT MENTAL OR COGNITIVE DISORDERS.

Mutilatory surgery and a life's sentence of metabolic manipulation through chemistry can't cure a mental illness.

A man's gender, physiologically-speaking, is not by choice. A man's unreasonable desire to be what he is not, at all costs, is pathological.
