How in the world is Transgender Bathroom rights a States Right Issue?

Quote:I remember that South Park episode. Good find.


I'm trying to be compassionate on the transgender issue like I am on the LBG issues. It's hard, though. I agree that you love who you love. How do you deny what you are, though? When does it end? A man thinking he is a woman/alien/dog/etc. in my opinion is a strange infatuation or mental illness...take your pick. If it's a chemical imbalance or other issue, does it make the emotion correct and should the behavior be supported and encouraged? Scenes of Howard Beal (Peter Finch) from "Network" are running through my head.


Does accepting what you are and making the best of it sound oppressive? Just curious what others think.
I think the way to go is counselling, medications where they can be helpful, and time. So many of these people grow out of it. Sadly some of them don't feel the same way after they have the operation and they end up dead at staggering rates. They need love and support, but real love isn't playing into the fantasies. 

Calling Deshawn Watson a future bust since 3/19/17. If I eat crow, I will keep this in here and proclaim JackCity a genius.
