I’ll accept that this may be a real condition, but perhaps being a teacher may not be the best of professions for someone with said condition.

I'm with you. I don't know anything more about this condition than what I've read here, but I do know that this person didn't need to work out their genetic gender issues in front of schoolchildren.

She has two X chromosomes. She is genetically female. You could make the case that all the years of living as a male were the lie.

I have to agree with this position. If you have a "Y" chromosome, you are a male. If you don't, you are a female. This person does not have a "Y" Chromosome, and is therefore Female, regardless of genitalia.

Now I would presume that this person has a uterus and ovaries, but I haven't seen that mentioned anywhere.

I express no support for the school but this particular individual has been medically wronged and is simply doing the right thing to try to approximate what she truly is by birth.

And guess what parents. You get to pay for his “fundemental transformation,” his salary, and his pension.

Because genetic testing was not widely available in the early 1980s, Swager’s parents were forced to choose for themselves whether to raise their child as a boy or a girl

No, they weren't forced to choose. They were irresponsible and lazy and daddy probably wanted a boy. Tests for X and Y were available and the doctor should have told them to do the test. Common sense would have done the test.

You could say that hse lost some of hser ‘Swager’ in the process. :-\

A tragic case, actually, handled poorly all the way around... Of course, the “compassionate” Libs will fit this relatively unique case into their one-size-fits-all narrative to push their agenda.

Exactly! Just like with every other issue, this will now become the norm that will be used to justify all sorts of deviant actions.

Now that you’ve had your good rant, it would be useful to go back and actually read beyond the headline.

Clear that you did not.

She’s got 2 X chromosomes, no Y. You get what that means, right? She’s a girl.

I mean, I’m a guy, but if I had some weird intersex condition where I was genetically male, but outwardly female... short, full of curves, no whiskers, and basically ‘look’ completely female... hell, just hand over the damned bobbie pins and fingernail polish. I’d live my life how I looked, rather than try to chemically or surgically mutilate myself into some weird, androgynous freak. Yeah, when I’d get home, I might plop myself on the couch, light up a stogie, and watch “Combat” reruns, and cater to my inner (and celebate) dude-ism. But that would be it.

But this person did not naturally look outwardly masculine. She has Kallmann Syndrome, which (as the article notes) blocks the onset of puberty (and the resulting secondary sex characteristics). The only reason she had outwardly male characteristics was because she was artificially pumped full of testosterone and other male hormones during adolescence.

So, she did not "chemically or surgically mutilate" herself - she had surgery and treatments to correct surgicaly and chemical mutilations that happened years/decades earlier.

Well, if you'd read the article, you would have seen that SHE was surgically and chemically mutilated as an infant and child, when she didn't have a say in the matter. She recently had surgery and medical treatments to correct the mutilations.

But sure, keep calling her a psychopath.

And if the parents had chosen to go the female route on their ambiguously “gendered” baby after birth, it would have chosen to be a male about this same time.

Homos just want to change because they are reality contrarians.

I know. That’s exactly what I meant. No need for you to reiterate as if I meant something else. Thank you.

I’m wondering what type of genitals this person has? The article didn’t say how that supposed birth defect was remedied, if at all, only that hormone therapy was used.

And all of this medical information is really just on the word of the person involved. There is no way for the press to check out whether there really is a genetic issue here, the guy/girl just SAID that was the case.

This is not your typical "transgender" situation. This is an actual case of someone actually growing up as the "wrong" gender.

Yeah, I noted that also.

Later genetic testing would reveal that Swager did indeed possess two X chromosomes, not the X and Y combination that makes someone genetically male.

This is pretty rare and is not a case of perversion as such.

However,the handling of the situation by the teacher and the school is horrible. The school administrators are cowardly incompetents and the teacher is a complete self centered jerk.
