    Further proof that what people like this need is good strong counseling

    100% agree. They need a support network that will confirm them in who they are and let them know they have value as who they are - rather than encouraging them to live a lie hoping to find value and acceptance as something they aren't. Clearly their family and friends are not providing this love and support for them.

    I used to think that way until I had kids. No matter how good a parent is, once kids reach a certain age they can choose whatever they want. I've learned to not judge parents so quickly. Good parent does not necessarily mean good child, nor the converse.

      Really? Does that mean you believe people are transgender by choice?

        When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others. Same thing when you are stupid.

            Why would someone shoot up a school? Why would someone abuse a child? Why would someone hate another person? Why would someone abuse power? Why would someone drive a car into a crowd of people? Why would someone drive a truck into a sidewalk? It is a choice. It is a result of free will.

                I'm planning to start a billion dollar business by enabling muslims to enjoy the wonderful flavors of bacon. I will raise pigs that self identify as halal cows.

                    Aw, do we have to analyze politics before making a joke? :~ So yes, also the kosher salt used on the halal cows.

                          Bloody silly questions, they are not choices that can be made. Depressed - probably because shit happened. Die - while I would like to live forever WE ALL DIE! Attraction - built into us by evolution.

                            Simple economics. There are a lot more Muslims. Know your target market!

                            I'm pretty sure I would not like to live in a world in which I would never be offended. I am absolutely certain I don't want to live in a world in which you would never be offended. Freedom doesn't mean the absence of things you don't like. Dave

                                Obviously, they are transgender by choice. They choose to become a transgender. The guy in the article is nothing more than a drag queen right now. He is NOT a transgender because he hasn't had the requisite procedure(s) performed. Even after he does, he's still a dude, and straight dudes will still not be interested if he reveals his true nature.

                                    They are not technically transgender until they have the surgical procedures performed. Until they CHOSE to have those procedures, they're just cross-dressers (which is ALSO a choice).

                                      I think we're probably using different definitions of things so I'll leave it alone now.

                                      Everyone is born right handed. Only the strongest overcome it. Fight for left-handed rights and hand equality.

                                        Any reason you are not also targeting Jews. Or are you simply having a Muslim rant?

                                        History is the joke the living play on the dead.

                                        I couldn't rhyme with kosher - but I did try. And I kid my co-workers the same. ;)

                                          In the US, I'd say that it has to happen; it's a question from the free market, and somebody will cater to their "needs". Lets hope the rest of the world keeps classifying animals according to the biological gender; a chicken is not called a chicken because it identifies as one, but because it lays eggs. No one cares how the chicken identifies itself.

                                          Pretty sure chickens exist for eating. So are you claiming that humans exist only for eating? If not then your analogy is not in fact an analogy.
