Born a man, he became a woman, then a man again — what's next?

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. (AP) — High on prescription painkillers and four days without sleep, Michael Berke raced his Harley to the megachurch where he’d found a home.

He barged into the church office, cursing loudly and wearing a mesh shirt printed with profanity. In his hands he held a picture of a woman with long, red hair and pouty lips.

“This is who I used to be,” he said.

“And this” — he gestured to his breastless chest, bald head and red goatee — “is who I’ve become.”

He was born a man. After a lifetime as a social misfit, he had transformed himself into Michelle, a saucy redhead. Then, three months ago, he had become Michael again — with the financial aid and spiritual encouragement of Calvary Chapel of Fort Lauderdale.

...whatever Chrissie Matthews is.

It’s hard being from South Florida sometimes. We seem to compete with California for the most lunatics per capita now.

[cripplecreek]

I wanna be a puppy.

[mvpel]

I always have to wonder what plastic surgeons would say to someone who wanted to cut off their left hand because of a lifetime as a social misfit.

Hope it kept its original equipment on ice.

Just more evidence that the so-called “sex change to suit the gender within” is more mutilation than treatment. The underlying problems, including high rates of psychosis, are what need to be treated. The knife doesn’t fix that. There are several studies that folks ignore that show psychosis persists after the “gender reassignment” surgery. This man is another example of the problem.

A man... then a women... and back to a man!

What next? Spokesperon for Snapon Tools?

[OB1kNOb]

Snap-On tools dealer?

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

Rock on dude - or dudette - or whatever.

[OB1kNOb]

You beat me by 25 seconds! Great gutter minds think alike!

[U S Army EOD]

Well if I ever become a social misfit, I will have them save it in a jar to cut down on medical cost just in case.

[Uriah_lost]

“What’s next?” ....Negroplasty or maybe Dolphinplasty!

[Red_Devil 232]

I bet there were very few problems with this kind of lunacy in the beginning of civilization ...

[Joe 6-pack]

Iguess it’s a woman’s perogative to change her mind...

[freekitty]

Likes the close friendships girls have? Oh yeah, right. This guy is really messed up.

[Tijeras_Slim]

Atleast he wasn’t a classygreeneyedblonde.

[#1CTYankee]

This one is a lost cause.

[SmithL]

As often as this one changes its mind, maybe velcro would be more appropriate.

[Cowboy Bob]

Born a man, he became a woman, then a man again — what's next?

Democratic Presidential Candidate?

[JimSEA]

We seem to compete with California for the most lunatics per capita now.

LOL I'd say you're gaining!!

[big'ol_freeper]

I expected this thread was going to be about Rudy Guiliani.

[drpix]

I know what it’s like... the mind is fast, but sometimes the fingers are slow.

[ElkGroveDan]

He worked as a techie for Paula Abdul and Janet Jackson

Well there's your problem right there....

[Beckwith]

Unless he was able to change his chromosomes, he was always and is a man.

[Doctor Raoul]

Keep the receipt from the last operation...

[Cementjungle]

I wanna be a puppy.

I wanna be a cat so I can eat, sleep and chase mice all day.

[RVN Airplane Driver]

I wanna be a puppy.I want to be a male puppy so I can sit in a rich lady's lap and lick myself and be told I am a "good little boy"!

[Doogle]

— what's next?

..a leading democratic candidate

[Gator113]

I might be wrong, but it seems to me that cutting Mr. Happy off, is akin to pulling the trigger. Once it’s go, it’s gone....I mean it’s really, really gone.

It seems this guy/whatever has screwed himself, so to speak.

[Eva]

My husband knows two men who have been transgendered, and neither one of them are happy. They are both so ugly that they are just miserable.

[Doogle]

or working in Rep Barney Franks office....on Tuesdays...Thursdays.....maybe every other Saturday...depending

“I wanna be a puppy.I want to be a male puppy so I can sit in a rich lady’s lap and lick myself and be told I am a “good little boy”!”

So I am not the only one.

[imahawk]

lolololololololololol

[SF Republican]

What next? I buy a french magazine Paris Match for my wife, kind of People and Time magazines combined together. A few weeks ago they had a story on two priests - they were women, that had both been men, had sex changes and were now lesbian lovers - I think.

[magslinger]

How much can he pay?

[GulfBreeze]

Actually it has happened. Google it up. You’ll see what I mean.

My husband knows two men who have been transgendered

Transgendered is too PC.

Instead , try "two who were mutilated" or "two who had their equipment removed" or "two who gave up their goods."

[driftdiver]

“I always have to wonder what plastic surgeons would say to someone who wanted to cut off their left hand because of a lifetime as a social misfit.”

Apparently “That will be $30k please.”

[A message]

LOL !!

[lady lawyer]

I agree. You can’t make a man into a woman with cosmetic surgery, any more than you can make a horse into a zebra by painting stripes on it.

[4yearlurker]

Wow..this guy don’t know which way he’s swinging. Pick a gender and go with it!

[driftdiver]

“My husband knows two men who have been transgendered, and neither one of them are happy. They are both so ugly that they are just miserable.”

I’m guessing they were miserable before and some psycho PhD told them a major operation would be the answer. Then it didn’t solve the problem of them being miserable.

These doctors are butchers.

[Billthedrill]

I was not pinged to this thread. Why was I not pinged to this thread?

[RockinRight]

Who was classygreeneyedblonde again?

[drpix]

There's more craziness here and right now... like extreme body modification to other species (lizards, cats etc...)

Something is also wrong with those performing these barbaric operations.
