Its both racist and sexist to assume changing your physical features can make you either a gender or race you want to be. Its also ignorant to push that very group of humans to accept you as one of them just by manipulating your body to appear like them.
It's not my process, and weighed against the medical professionals who are involved in a gender reassignment, your opinion means nothing.
Absolutely. My opinion in this means nothing based on my personal expertise. That's why I don't rely on my opinion.
Just saying.
But it sure is easy to bash on someone else's opinion.
I'm not saying he approached it in the best way, but neither are many opposing opinions.
What I hear from many on tough subjects is "I accept people for who they are, but you are an idiot and wrong."
Do what I say, not what I do?
Again, Just sayin.
Sorry, my knowledge of gross anatomy is pretty limited, can anybody tell me where the futility muscle is located?
I'm not sure where it is but I'm pretty sure it's getting plenty of exercise.
I'm not sure where it is but I'm pretty sure it's getting plenty of exercise.
It's even easier when you rely on the opinions of the professional bodies who have the expertise in such matters. Otherwise, it'sjust pointless bickering.
I don't care how he approached it. Not all opinions are equal.
Not at all. First, I did not say the person was an idiot, I just labeled some of his ideas. Second, opinions can be wrong, and wrong opinions should not be immune to criticism.
Just saying.
The fallacy of argument to moderation drives me up the wall.
False balance isn't balance.
The question itself displays that you don't understand the fundamentals of gender identity expression. Those have been relayed on this board too many times to count. It's pointless to go over them with you again.
Even the phrasing of "believes they should of been born a different sex" (sic) indicates a fundamental non-understanding of the concept.
I should have listened to Moe.
1- Within these bodies of "professionals" you have differing opinions. Lets just say you go with the majority... does that mean they are right?
Any argument worth listening to, or following must be based on a principle of truth that is solid and unwavering.
People, Professionals, and opinions change so often that basing your opinion on a consensus is a waste of time.
Unless the opinion of said professional body is based on solid truth, the opinion is not on a solid foundation, and is a waste of time.
2-
Of course not all opinions are create equal. "mine" is always the best one whether you like it or not. Usually you can find something useful in an argument if you try, and overlook the methods used. Of course if you dont care, you have already made up your mind.
3-
You are right. Opinions are not immune to criticism.
4-
Did you pay for the 5 minute argument, or the whole 1/2 hour?

Doesn't satire only "work" if others find it "satirical"?
