As to whether he will have further surgery, Luke said he hasn't decided. "This is often the first thing people ask me — about whether I'll get surgery `down there,' and I think it is really weird," Luke wrote

What? Slicing off your breasts and calling yourself a man isn't weird?.

We are creating a society of freaks and letting them dictate the downfall of our society. (I was going to write the downfall of our "civilization," but I'm not sure we can call it that any more.)

My reaction, exactly. It IS weird.

I have to say, I consider myself pretty open-minded, but I was floored reading this article. Who knew that:

1) The Wesleyan campus health services clinic no longer requires students to check off "M" or "F" when coming in for a "wellness and sexual health visit." Instead, they are asked on a form to "describe your gender identity history."

2)... Paige Kruza, is biologically female but looks androgynous. Paige's roommate is male and is extremely respectful, Paige said. When referring to Paige, he uses pronouns that have evolved in the transgender community: "ze" instead of "he" or "she"; "hir" instead of "him" or "her."

3) At Smith, the women's college in Northampton, Mass., students voted last year to eliminate female pronouns from the student constitution at the request of transgender students. "She" and "her" were replaced with the phrase "the student."

"The transgender community is becoming more vocal and more visible," Dr. Mallon said. "Some are asking for accommodations; others don't need accommodations, but just want to be respected for the gender that they are. I think it may be where the gay movement was 10 or 15 years ago."

Now, what happens when two transgender people want to get married, and neither one wants to be called: he or she, or him or her, or husband or wife, or mom or dad? I am now beginning to think this constitutional amendment on male/female marriage really is necessary.
