To be clear yet again, I was never arguing against altering one's anatomy, I was simply commenting on what might be permissible for people with natural-born *****es to do, if one can identify as whomever on a given day. (I'm sure you grasp that, and do so regularly.)
And yeah, I'm old and have lived a Libertine existence. (I could go into detail, but I'll spare you that.) I have never hidden in my home and pontificated online regarding what I have never experienced, as many of you seem to do, however... I just got out there and did it.
OK, that should be some grist for the hatred/superiority mill... Enjoy yourselves!

In the tv thread a few weeks ago I mentioned a limited series on HBO called The Lady and the Dale. I posted about it after the first episode had aired, as it appeared (after that episode) to be about the very interesting story of a man wanted for fraud and theft in the midwest who disappeared, then resurfaced years later (in the early 1970's) as a transgender woman and was in the process of creating a car company out of nothing more than an idea for an automobile that got extraordinary gas mileage.
While the series was in fact about the efforts to create the car, it actually became much more, a very interesting story about that extraordinarily difficult times that transgender women face. While some people said that their efforts to shut this lady and her company down were ostensibly about "fraud" (it's questionable to what extent that occurred, although she may have violated some securities rules), the actual story was about how the authorities, and even more significantly, the news media, tried to drive her out of business solely because she was transgender.
The efforts to basically bury her were lead by a noted television journalist in L.A., who is a talking head in the series, and clearly has some massive transgender phobias. He isn't shy about his belief that because this lady, in his mind, committed a "fraud" about who she "is," she clearly must be committing a fraud in her business activities. The tv reporter comes across horribly in the movie, although he doesn't seem to realize it.
The series also briefly touches on the difficulties associated with the surgeries involved, and getting them.
It's an exceptional series and I strongly recommend it.
The trans-phobic tv reporter's name was Richard Carlson.
He had a son who followed him into the business by the name of Tucker.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

Nope, this is exactly in line with the last two pages of discussion. You still want to deny rights to person A because of unfounded fears of what person B might do. No bueno.Facebook: bcowles920 Instagram: missthundercat01
