JUDITH: Well, why do you want to be Loretta, Stan?
LORETTA [formerly Stan]: I want to have babies.
REG: You want to have babies?!
LORETTA: It’s every man’s right to have babies if he wants them.
REG: But… you can’t have babies.
LORETTA: Don’t you oppress me.
REG: I’m not oppressing you, Stan. You haven’t got a womb! Where’s the foetus going to gestate?! You going to keep it in a box?!
LORETTA: [crying]
JUDITH: Here! I– I’ve got an idea. Suppose you agree that he can’t actually have babies, not having a womb, which is nobody’s fault, not even the Romans’, but that he can have the right to have babies.
FRANCIS: Good idea, Judith. We shall fight the oppressors for your right to have babies, brother. Sister. Sorry.
REG: What’s the point?
FRANCIS: What?
REG: What’s the point of fighting for his right to have babies when he can’t have babies?!
FRANCIS: It is symbolic of our struggle against oppression.
REG: Symbolic of his struggle against reality.

Not according to God.

“Male and female he made them.”

Guess they’ve never visited the Sistine Chapel or taken a virtual tour of it.

they must be leaving chromosomes out of biology classes and the new common core science curriculum.

If something as basic as gender is fluid, why not race?
We’re all descended from Africans anyway, so why not claim that as your race?

American Medical Association Says Gender is Imaginary

Do not deceive yourselves. If you think that you are wise in this age, you should become fools so that you may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He catches the wise in their craftiness,” and again, “The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile.” ... I Corinthians 3: 18-20

Wow. The AMA is full on foolish, anti-Science in fact. They completely deny the existence of "settled-science" Biology [Biology Denier?!].

When your doctor delivered you ... and said ... It's a boy! ... or It's a girl! ... the AMA now says that was all "imaginary". Fools.

So, when they deliver a baby, rather than announcing,
‘It’s a boy’s,or ‘It’s a girl’, do they now proclaim, ‘It’s up you’?

XX = Female
XY = Male

any other occurrences are so infinitesimally rare as to not be worried about.


Actually, any other occurrences are pretty sex-specific as well.
Klinefelter's (XXY): Feminine features, bigger boobs, smaller testes. Only occurs in males.
XYY: Males only.
Trisomy X (XXX): Females only, all regular aside from extra X.
Turner's (X): Females only. Sterile and don't mature sexually.

Any other genetic disorders will involve the other chromosomes. So genetically, you're basically set one way or the other. So, the issues arise from people with abnormal growth in utero. These are usually referred to as hermaphrodites, although they have an actual sex. Due to growth environment, however, the testes/ovaries may not develop properly, which can lead to confusion, but there is no grey area. The only true either-or is someone whop develops with an ovary on one side, and testes on the other, but this is extremely rare. And, likely, their genetic code is still 100% one way or the other.

This whole 'transgender' issue is mainly a mental issue. Either parents who raised their kids in a really messed up way, or overexposure to opposite-sex hormones would likely cause problems. But it's a mental/chemical imbalance, NOT, in any way, a natural occurrence.

And, I forgot to mention, the way to fix this is mental therapy. Chopping your weiner off isn't gonna help.

This is what happens when political correctness demands that we accommodate crazy people. Common sense and reality have to be discarded and society turned upside down to placate a few nuts. Rather than building a few insane asylums for these people, society itself becomes insane.

Yet conservatives are the ones who are anti-science. Ok. Sure.
