What is a “transgender woman”? Anybody?
Can they screw themselves?
It’s a Catholic hospital. If he doesn’t like it (and tits or no, he’ll always be a he), he can go to a secular hospital.
Agree 100%
Ya know, I don’t know why people bother putting ‘it’s a boy!’ or ‘it’s a girl!’ on birth announcements anymore. Or why they’re so anxious to know their unborn baby’s sex via ultrasound. Why not just wait ‘til they’re 57 and they can tell us what they are! Pity these poor mixed up souls.
One of my Gunny”s’ favorite expressions was “useless as tits on a bull.” Somehow that seems apropos in this situation.
T’anks :)
"Tard" refers to the ping list members and not to the subject of the thread!

A person, of indeterminate gender, who needs psychiatric care more than a bewb job.
just saying...
I've heard of the Trans Alaska Highway....But I digress...
Women sometimes have to have mastectomies(sp) because of cancer and other illnesses or accidents. When that happens, modern technology has improved to the point that they can have their breasts rebuilt surgically. Rebuilding a breast and enlarging a breast are for all intents and purposes identical surgical procedures. I am willing to venture that that surgery is offered as a service to cancer and accident victims at religious hospitals and clinics and is not a vanity approved surgery for them.
The only people who would rule her “not guilty” are other transgenders.
Here’s to hoping they find a cure for this affliction.
One reason a hospital such as this might do breast augmentation surgery is for Breast Reconstruction surgery due to cancer, or injury.
Personally, I’m curious what the exact words of the hospital were. The whole “Not God’s Will” were the words used by her surgeon if I’m reading this correctly. Why not just go to a different hospital??? Surely this surgeon has privileges in a secular hospital as well...
Cutting off your genitals does not make you a woman.
Neither will most other hospitals.
Catholic hospitals, at least years ago, would never allow a tubal ligation, or vasectomy, to be done in a Catholic hospital.
People went elsewhere and respected their policy.
Your right, another one of my little projects lately has been reading the birth announcements in our local paper. Only about one in three have the parents listed with the same last name. I’m not that old but still remember when no one would have announced to the world a birth from parents that weren’t married, there are so many things getting chiseled away in society it’s hard stay sane sometimes.
“The DNA won’t change”
Absolutely. People are trying to play God.
Ypu have people with jumbled genes but they are still male or female. They may have femenine or masculine characteristics but they are what they were when they were born.
