Even if I were, I agree with him that transgender people have a mental issue that causes their feelings. I just don't see why these people should be shamed so much for their "mental illness" that hurts no one.
Well, you definitely don't act like you respect them. Any time that the issue has been brought up, you seem to have had a lot of disgust and anger toward them, and you speak about them in a hugely disrespectful manner. I guess we'll have to disagree with championing their battles. I think all people who overcome huge obstacles should be given some credit for that, especially when the obstacles that they overcome are obstacles that all people like them have to overcome.
Huge obstacles are a big deal JC. I just think we all have those battles and its not right to put one over the other. We all question ourselves and we are forced to power through.
The only reason I "react" with some of this stuff is that everytime the topic comes up it seems there is a new vocabulary list of names. Heck RG and pat have posted so many lists that's it's just beyond the pale. That's the stuff I make light of .... Because it's ridiculous. Not the people. I think they have some serious demons and problems and I hope they get through it all the best they can.
