    How about boys who think they are dogs or cats? They do exist, you know. Should we go along with that as well? How about boys who think they are a god, or boys who think they are angels? If it's all about the person's "heart, soul, brain," then does that settle it in those cases? Do we reach a point where impressions become delusions?

    Talking about delusions, it's amazing how our abandonment of God has led us to the point of not even being able to figure out what we should call boys and girls.

    Read in Genesis about God giving humans free will. We can e.g., inject estrogen and progesterone into a pregnant woman's womb, changing the hormone balance for the developing fetus. Or maybe it's a natural flow of hormones.

    Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.

    We've discussed this before. There is no medical evidence for a hormonal connection to the transgender situation.

    A man posing as a woman and claiming to be a transformer ran in the elite London marathon. He/She/It ran as Glenique Frank. Frank finished ahead of 14,000 other real women. The London marathon is highly competitive and follows World Athletic Rules which prohibits runners from competing that have gone through male puberty.

    Last month he ran in the Tokyo marathon as Glen Frank.

    Women sports is dead .

    Clueless Joe is going to put the final nail in it . He is proposing Title 9 protections for transformers.

    Dems in the Minnesota Legislature had a new bill (HF1655) that would remove language from the state's Human Rights Act that says pedophiles are not protected based on "sexual orientation." (4.1 - 4.7)

    The Human Rights Act reads ;"'Sexual orientation' does not include a physical or sexual attachment to children by an adult." (subd 44 )

    Sec. 363A.03 MN Statutes

    That language would've been removed.


    The proposed change also read....

    "'Gender identity' means a person's inherent sense of being a man, woman, both, or neither. A person's gender identity may or may not correspond to their assigned sex at birth or to their primary or secondary sex characteristics. A person's gender identity is not necessarily visible to others." (4.10 -4.13)

    The bill was not stand alone. It was surreptitiously added into a Judiciary Policy omnibus bill that passed Wednesday.

    The Repubs added a last-minute amendment to the bill before it was approved by unanimous consent. No Dem apparently wanted to be on record supporting pedophilia. But had the Repubs not been vigilant the language would've become Minnesota law. A major bullet was dodged. But it does show what extent the Dems are prepared to go to codify deviancy.

    The gender language is still in the bill and it is now up to the state Senate to reject it .

    I don't think I would put left-handedness in the same category as pedophilia. Wouldn't you think the child victims would see the comparison as pretty bizarre?

    A better comparison to gender identity would be a person claiming to be of a different race or a different species. In all three cases, it would be a violation of clear, genetically-determined biological markers. That is not the case with being left-handed. A person would not say, "I am genetically right-handed, but I claim to actually be left-handed."
  • Apr 28, 2023, 02:58 PM

    Or, "I am genetically left-handed but am forced to be right-handed." (Check back to elementary schools during the '50s and earlier, when ropes or belts were tied around students' torsos to immobilize the left arm and hand. Plus, verbal shaming was employed to change handedness.)

    Female genital mutilation (who.int)
  • Apr 29, 2023, 09:56 AM

    That has nothing to do with transitioning. It's considered a "rite of passage" in many countries (so females don't enjoy sex).

    "It reflects deep-rooted inequality between the sexes and constitutes an extreme form of discrimination against girls and women. It is nearly always carried out by traditional practitioners on minors and is a violation of the rights of children. The practice also violates a person's rights to health, security and physical integrity; the right to be free from torture and cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment; and the right to life, in instances when the procedure results in death."

    Definitely, especially forced mutilation. People do "mutilate" their bodies with piercings and tattoos. And transitioning surgery is fixing what's broken, like a tonsillectomy.

    The WHO says

    Quote:

    FGM has no health benefits, and it harms girls and women in many ways. It involves removing and damaging healthy and normal female genital tissue, and it interferes with the natural functions of girls' and women's bodies. Although all forms of FGM are associated with increased risk of health complications, the risk is greater with more severe forms of FGM.Immediate complications of FGM can include:

    • severe pain
    • excessive bleeding (haemorrhage)
    • genital tissue swelling
    • fever
    • infections e.g., tetanus
    • urinary problems
    • wound healing problems
    • injury to surrounding genital tissue
    • shock
    • death.

    Long-term complications can include:

    • urinary problems (painful urination, urinary tract infections);
    • vaginal problems (discharge, itching, bacterial vaginosis and other infections);
    • menstrual problems (painful menstruations, difficulty in passing menstrual blood, etc.);
    • scar tissue and keloid;
    • sexual problems (pain during intercourse, decreased satisfaction, etc.);
    • increased risk of childbirth complications (difficult delivery, excessive bleeding, caesarean section, need to resuscitate the baby, etc.) and newborn deaths;
    • need for later surgeries: for example, the sealing or narrowing of the vaginal opening (type 3) may lead to the practice of cutting open the sealed vagina later to allow for sexual intercourse and childbirth (deinfibulation). Sometimes genital tissue is stitched again several times, including after childbirth, hence the woman goes through repeated opening and closing procedures, further increasing both immediate and long-term risks; and
    • psychological problems (depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, low self-esteem, etc.).

    So called transitioning is done in many cases to minors . That in itself should be a crime .

    No surgery is done to minors. Gender therapy, family and individual counseling, maybe hormone blocking or therapy depending on the kid's age. Surgery wouldn't happen until the kid is 18 or older.

    FGM is a whole different ballgame from transition surgery.

    hormone blocking is chemical castration it is a mutilation as much as a surgical procedure is if there is no medical reason for it . .....and transition is NOT a medical reason . It is a fad .

    Have you ever talked with any people who have transitioned? Nope, it's not a fad. Those women who spend three to five years transitioning aren't doing it for fun. The mind- and soul-numbing dysphoria they experience is nothing anyone wants and can be alleviated.

    To flatly say there couldn’t be any social influence in formation of gender identity flies in the face of reality. Teenagers influence each other," Anderson tells the LA Times.

    With a lotta womanly attributes hangin' out in our faces. (I've seen transwomen who look even better, more womanly, if breasts are the standard of womanliness.)
