Is it wrong to do violence to folks because they are black, white, or gay?  Yes.
Is it wrong to ridicule or harass folks because they are black, white, or gay?  Absolutely.

Is it right to force the general population to incorporate new words into the vocabulary, just to accommodate a few?  No.
Is it right to force folks that are born and live as biological females to share a restroom with someone who simply identifies as "female"?  Hell no.

Well said . Rep to you .

Besides can't these transmissions be covered under gay? really they are cross dressing until they get the chop. So may not be gay in all cases I guess.

As an employer I would like the right to let someone go who came to work dressed as the opposite sex. Employees represent the image of the business. I certainly wouldn't want the cast of Too Wong Foo representing Lucie LLC in public.
