10/29 Gender Confused Children

Quote From: zookeeper1

These are physical handicaps.  They did not choose to have no arms or legs or a crooked back or spine.  A person that is transgender or transexual chooses to be that way.

Right.  They *choose* to go through life being ridiculed, crusified, misunderstood, humilated, rejected, threatened, beaten, and dismissed. 

 

 

Wow you're a genius, you just figured it out.   They just love the abuse.    Guess the discussion's over then isn't it?

How Did You Choose?

To be____? Did you wake up one day and decide that you are the self identified gender you are? Or did another choose your gender for you. Did you get to choose how you were born?

It should be noted that your written post express ignorance, anger and hatred of others not like yourself. There also appears to be some self hatred in the mix too.

No one chooses to be transgender!!! Do your homework, open your mind, and enlighten your narrow minded views!!! Who would choose to be someone that is socially outcasted by ignorant individuals!!! There is tons of scientific research on this issue, wake-up!!!  Ignorance is a choice!!! Choose wisdom!!!!

NO ONE chooses to be transgendered.  I certainly did not choose to pay thousands of dollars after years of saving up money to spend thousands of hours completing the Harry Benjamin Standards of Care.  I did not choose to lose contact with SOME members of my own family who would not even listen to my explanation, or even visit me after surgery.  They would have seen someone finally comfortable with who they are.  Some of my family I am closer to now, I did not lose them all.  I also gained a lot of friends during this process and learned a lot of the struggles of others in my situation.  I did not choose to have several very painful surgeries, and almost die once (however I did absolutely REFUSE to die after all that).  No one would go through all that, suffer repeatedly, some with no support from anyone, or risk beatings and possible death.  Did you CHOOSE to be heterosexual?  Did you choose your eye color, hair color?  It is the SAME thing!  Just because this is treated by society and sadly still the medical field does not make it less a type of birth defect   You choose what you eat, what type house you live in, what car you drive, not to be gender dysphoric!
