I am familiar with delusions and their symptoms.

When the accountant thinks she is the queen of England, her delusion is that she ALWAYS WAS the queen of England.

When the man thinks that he always was a woman that is not proof that he is not delusional.

I meant in children. We can disagree. Children are totally innocent and should play with what appeals to them.

Because this is all about rebelling against God, the Creator.
Nobody is born in the wrong body. In a sane world, people would know that is impossible.

Nonsense. Children are not totally innocent -- they all have impulses to inappropriate behavior of many kinds, and this is just one of those inappropriate areas the left is trying to make "off-limits." Because children will try anything, like sticking metal objects into electric sockets or putting their hand on a hot stove, that's why God gives them parents to guide them. While children's tendencies need not be punished or shamed, they can be distracted or given dispassionate negative feedback. As they begin to understand language, concepts of safe behavior and social harmony should be explained simply. Romancing sexual exoticism is a parent's foolishness.

“Children are totally innocent and should play with what appeals to them.”

We should try to stop children from getting their hearts set on something that can never be.

A little girl who wants to be an NFL nose guard should be informed, in a gentle and age-appropriate way, that this is not going to happen and, if it did, it would be a bad thing.

A little boy who wants to get pregnant, perhaps in an innocent desire to emulate his mother, should likewise be dissuaded.

Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

“Romancing sexual exoticism is a parent’s foolishness.”

I’d call it Evil, with a capital “E.”

Precisely. A little confusing, but correct.

We might even see it as an indication that he is crazier than he looks.

“While I believe that homosexuality, transgenderism and all other forms of paraphilia represent mental disorders”

I’d call that an educated opinion, myself.

“they should be treated with compassion and not scorn.”

Should, yes, but man is man, and effeminate boys are going to take the occasional abuse. I know of an instance, decades ago, where an effeminate boy was bullied into fellating older boys.

I wasn’t able to protect him, and to be honest, I didn’t really understand what was going on. I was able to protect myself, but I rather imagine that boy developed same-sex attraction disorder in later life.

“The ones who should be treated with scorn are the political operatives in the medical and media industries who are trying to convince people that it is normal and even worthy of celebration.”

IMO, scorn is inadequate for them.

“Homosexuals should be given as much consideration and opportunities as normal folk, but within reason. For example, in the same way that a schizophrenic should not be an air traffic controller, a homosexual should not be a scoutmaster.”

Ah, a refreshing breath of common sense.

“I like my Barber. He’s got anti Obama stuff all over the place and doesn’t give a damn if people don’t like it.”

Mine is the same. Most barbers seem to be in touch with reality, unlike their male “stylist” counterparts.

I was helping my uncle at his funeral home during a funeral mass. One of the pall bearers was a 6’5” cross-dresser, pre-op. The family made us aware of this before-hand so that we were prepared. But it was still shocking when “Tamicqua”, a white man, showed up in 7 inch heels, a shiny black dress painted to her body, and a bejeweled feather boa. She insisted she would be able to carry the coffin as required of her. Well, it did not go well. On the 2nd step, one of “her” heels snapped off. She bent down to retrieve it, placing the burden if the coffin on the other 5 pall bearers. The coffin tilted precariously to the left, and I was sure we were going to lose it. And as she bent down, one of her silicone breasts fell out, and rolled down the steps of the church. It was a total disaster!

It is really sad. I always pray for them. Most of those guys had very weak relationships with their fathers and naturally gravitated to the closest role model which was their mother.

I was reading a book by Dr.Joseph Nicholosi: "A Parent's Guide to Preventing Homosexuality" and he said that when such a boy watches a lot of Disney princess movies they can identify with the character and want to dress just like her. This would be where cross-dressing begins.

The doctor's solution to the parents who go to him for help is to have the boy and the dad do guy stuff, work on a car together, anything guys would do without mom. And for mom to praise her son's manliness.

He has had great success in helping confused boys before it sets in and they become just another sad person as you described.

All these people are fooking themselves.

...not surprising, since they are known to have sexual identity issues...

...but what’s not being said here is that they are also fooling themselves...

What an awesome tagline that would make.

That's right! I thought of it myself, but I got it from another FReeper and don't remember who it was. So while I don't feel bad about using it where appropriate, I don't want to STEAL it.

Fellow FReeper, if it was yours, please let us all know. You deserve the credit.

You've been trapped by circumstances into using the wrong pronoun. It is not a HER or a SHE. While it may seem kind to refer to them by their chosen terms, it only bolsters the hold their illness has upon them.
