...Being transgender is a ‘mental disorder - biologically impossible’

Why get a choppadictomy like Rush talks about? Simply declare yourself the opposite gender and people have to accept it. For whenever you feel like it of course. Like when the Swedish Bikini Team is in town, and you want to use the female locker room.

This used to be a huge joke, but with things going the way they're going today, who's to say? The insanity train just keeps rolling along.

p.s The last place I worked had a guy who thought he was a female after forty years of being a male. The bigwigs decided he was who he thought he was, and said he could use the female restroom. A number of woman told me of how uncomfortable they felt when he walked in. This was before the guy had a choppadictomy. Many of them started posting lookouts to warn others to be out of or not go in their main restroom while "it" was in there.

It was posted in the WSJ. Google Transgender Surgery Isn't the Solution to find the entire article.

You will ALSO find these quotes in the article:

You won't hear it from those championing transgender equality, but controlled and follow-up studies reveal fundamental problems with this movement. When children who reported transgender feelings were tracked without medical or surgical treatment at both Vanderbilt University and London's Portman Clinic, 70%-80% of them spontaneously lost those feelings. Some 25% did have persisting feelings; what differentiates those individuals remains to be discerned.

There are subgroups of the transgendered, and for none does "reassignment" seem apt. One group includes male prisoners like Pvt. Bradley Manning, the convicted national-security leaker who now wishes to be called Chelsea. Facing long sentences and the rigors of a men's prison, they have an obvious motive for wanting to change their sex and hence their prison. Given that they committed their crimes as males, they should be punished as such; after serving their time, they will be free to reconsider their gender.

Another subgroup consists of young men and women susceptible to suggestion from "everything is normal" sex education, amplified by Internet chat groups. These are the transgender subjects most like anorexia nervosa patients: They become persuaded that seeking a drastic physical change will banish their psycho-social problems. "Diversity" counselors in their schools, rather like cult leaders, may encourage these young people to distance themselves from their families and offer advice on rebutting arguments against having transgender surgery. Treatments here must begin with removing the young person from the suggestive environment and offering a counter-message in family therapy.

Then there is the subgroup of very young, often prepubescent children who notice distinct sex roles in the culture and, exploring how they fit in, begin imitating the opposite sex. Misguided doctors at medical centers including Boston's Children's Hospital have begun trying to treat this behavior by administering puberty-delaying hormones to render later sex-change surgeries less onerous—even though the drugs stunt the children's growth and risk causing sterility. Given that close to 80% of such children would abandon their confusion and grow naturally into adult life if untreated, these medical interventions come close to child abuse. A better way to help these children: with devoted parenting.

All EXTREMELY politically incorrect in this day and age with the current Leftist meme of making homosexuality, pedophilia, and trannies "the new normal".

I’ve worked for a defense contractor that covered the surgery, partially, under health benefits, and meets all the check boxes on the Out and Equal Index. So not only was there more than one man who said he was a woman, but one woman who said she was a man.

It is insane that the right to privacy includes abortion, but it doesn’t include a man in a dress in the bathroom.

The horrific thing is that he has the male organ, and often retains the heterosexual orientation. So he changes from a weird dude with normal sexuality to a mentally ill man who says he’s both a woman and a lesbian.

You don’t have men in the women’s bathroom or changing rooms, for the protection of women from assault. And now you’re letting a MENTALLY ILL man into the women’s bathroom.

And if a woman complains, she’s homophobic/transphobic.

The worst thing for me was the demands by these men for validation. They demand to be at womens’ luncheons, women’s professional associates, etc. I stopped the networking altogether, because I didn’t like them and they’d too often dominate. What is the point of a woman’s luncheon when the transgendered male to female (who had surgery) takes over as the star of the event, so glad to be welcomed, I’m now the most important thing in the room?

The most frustrating thing for my boss was a male to female trans I had to work with, myself in first level support, it in second level support. It transitioned and demanded full recognition from the only woman on the team - me. I said it was free to make its decisions, but I would advise my brother against it, and take my children to counseling if they said they were contrary to such a basic biological fact. I didn’t impose, it kept asking why I didn’t go out to a special make up women’s luncheon, just it and me. It asked what made me more of a woman than it. I answered, “I gave birth twice.”
I probably became the first sexual harassment claim at the company against a transgender. The going to a different bathroom 200 feet further away was my choice. It coming in and propagandizing me in my cube on my breaks or when it came by to discuss business, then refusing to help me on system outages, was deemed a personality conflict.
When I reported that it came into my cube while I’m eating lunch by myself, repeatedly detailing the surgical details and medical issues, in short, grossing me out while I tried to eat on purpose, then HR agreed it was sexual harassment and talked to “it”. But they did NOT want to deal with its mental illness except full validation and endorsement, then punishing those who didn’t comply with mandates.

I’ve dealt with sexual harassment at work by men, such as the idiot who asked if I was going to get pregnant and quit after a coworker had a baby, and had a constant turnover of female subordinates who dealt with him. The transgender was actually worse, because it would find me in the bathroom and try to confront me over my discomfort and supposed problems - and most people don’t want to have a philosophical debate while on the toilet.

“Well, for what it’s worth, I’ve known that I was superman since I was about 8 years old.......It’s been my fear of heights that has kept me from leaping tall buildings with a single bound.”

I’m similar. But I never had a fear of heights. Used to jump off the second story of buildings under construction, onto the ground. But, not having a cape, I did develop a distinct aversion to hitting the ground. Everything was just fine up to that point.

Basic biological question:

Can a transgendered (via complete surgery) person reproduce?

No. They are an abomination who willingly violates the Lord's very first command to humankind:

"Be fruitful and multiply."

...because of a perverted choice they have made -- to become an incomplete human being.

That is, indeed, insane.

The old days they had to go to Europe for these operations.

The saying was, ‘go abroad, come back a broad’.

I remember reading about “Christine” Jorgensen who went to Europe in the early fifties to have the choppadictomy done. Then it seemed it was quite a while before we heard of another instance..”Renee” Richards? Now thanks to Jenner, how many more easily influence and confused people are going to undertake a mistake?

To: Repent and Believe

Communist Goals (1963 Congressional Record)

22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of artistic expression.

23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.”

24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press.

25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity

26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.”

27. Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with “social” religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.”

28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of church and state.”

At least Michael Jackson when he first started bleaching his skin had the excuse that he had a skin disease: Vitiligo.

That being said, I have NO justification for that nose of his...

read the latest: “transabled”

“We define transability as the desire or the need for a person identified as able-bodied by other people to transform his or her body to obtain a physical impairment,” says Alexandre Baril, a Quebec born academic who will present on “transability” at this week’s Congress of the Social Sciences and Humanities at the University of Ottawa.”
