Chase Culpepper is a teen who wears women's clothing and makeup on a regular basis -- that is, until he was forced to remove said makeup for his driver's license picture.

Reporter: "The DMV says it does not allow anyone to wear a disguise in photos."

Culpepper: "This is how I am every single day. This is who I am, and this is how I choose to express myself." (Via WFXB)

The DMV says it will not allow 16-year-old Culpepper, who identifies as gender nonconforming, to retake his picture because it goes against policy. His mother is upset, too.

"My government was telling my son, 'You must conform to our ideals of what a man should look like.' ... I'm very proud of him.'"

Looks like a Britney wanna-be (”Leave Britney alone!”).

Don’t be a fag, son.

“The Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund is supporting Chase, writing about the case on its home page.”

The “Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund”?

Yet another reason to despise leftard lawyers.

“Gender nonconforming”? Hang him from his b@lls until he realizes that if he really was a female he would not have them.

Should just submit a picture of the Holland tunnel, that’d be for the backside shot....

Mental health issues have no bearing on drivers license. I don’t care if you think or feel that you are Bozo the clown.
You don;t get your DMV picture taken as Bozo.

and must tuck your hair behind your ears [...] I don’t know if that’s the real reason

The shape of the ears is an extremely useful - because unchanging - characteristic in identifying someone.

Meh. Mebbe just a tolerance for the "one of those" wilting violets.

After all, last I heard she was spending some time with the Brisbane lads not that long ago.

Perhaps it has brought about a tolerance for those among us who are not destined to... shall we say, be the inspiration for our next generation of warriors?

*grin*

(ducks!)

[Utilizer]

Good grief! I just made a comment. Get real, okay?

Okay. *snicker*

And nancyboys are really all such sweet lads, and deserve to be BFF's to all women so that they have no need to deal with regular males at all.

Good to know your attraction meter tilts that way. :P

Hey! Watch it there mate! In Frisco or Bezerkely, I grant you, but there are quite a few normals scattered about in the other 92% of the state!
