Lets not get into this, but its a Lesbian Gay Transgender thingy, which always seems to come at the end of a historic period. Why is the question/ when its more important to decide what toilet to use, than to question why the national debt is 20 trillion and un payable.

Then the sheeple jump on the band wagon , and after days of introspection ,decide their natural state of general human misery can be changed, as the dysfunction was obviously caused by being born the wrong sex.
The problem being those that got it wrong cant change their mind. When in the past an effeminate male would just have remained an effeminate male, and adjusted their lives accordingly.

Transgenders aren't going to hurt anyone other than the gross out factor.

Reminds me of this quote:
"All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances, And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages. At first, the infant, Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms."

The gross part is that they are men not what they look like.

.... Mabey its something to do with society being to up tight in Victorian times, just about right in the sixties, but its all going a bit to far now, because intimacy with a human has to have some emotional attachement, but its all sexual display, one night stands std's emotional confusion. No one knows whether they are Authur or martha.Because the role models are breaking down. Home and family are a past pipedream, and the headonism is a drug with limited kick value.Whats next when you've done it all. It might be fun but its gonna be a short one.

Insurance Man: Thank you Ripley, that will be all.
Ripley: [aggravated] Goddammit, that's not all! 'Cause if one of those things gets down here then that *will* be all! And all this...
[Ripley grabs up a few pieces of paper]
Ripley: This *bull#* you think is so important...
[Ripley tosses the paper, scattering them]
Ripley: You can just kiss all of that goodbye!

I don't think I will ever understand transgenders, it just doesn't make sense to me.
I'm a man. I don't feel like a man though, I just feel like me. What does it even mean to feel like a particular gender. I may do things which are masculine, I may have masculine tendancies, but aren't those just social constructs based on what people with penises "tend" to be like?

Yes, you can go that route.
I have chronic migraine.
You can get all mad at people who don't understand and don't want to, or you can learn to accept that it is what it is and to a certain extent you will have to shape your life as it is to accommodate that most people, thankfully, do not have to go through what you do. And do you really want them to?
