Yet again, confusing education with intelligence.

I'm not trying to tell you, I AM telling you... I'm no expert, but all the information about GID says it's much more than cosmetic. For one thing, it's a permanent hormonal change - so in that aspect alone it's not just about looks. People who only want to LOOK like the other gender become drag queens/kings, whereas people with gender identity disorder go one (big) step further.

Nobody.

But just because you have a great education doesn't mean that you are intelligent.

The left often forgets this.

Take Sheila Jackson Lee for instance....

She has a degree from Yale.

Would you consider her intelligent?

wrong

while there may be a genetic change over (hormonal)..ie a NEUROLOTIGAL DISORDER........but.. the SURGERY is cosmetic

just the same as if I wanted a nose job...its cosmetic

sure and while some 'dragqueens' are also ONLY for the job, yet some are because they are gay or having an identity (neurological)(neurological btw is BRAIN(your brain controls WHO you are and the WAY YOU THINK)) crisis

I disagree with the "control" part which was the primary focus of that poster. Smaller government, locally focused is the principal, control is a liberal attitude.

True... but schools like UCB rarely let a moron enroll, no matter how hard they worked in high school. Unless maybe they play good football, LOL.

Really? How do you know? And who is this phantom "left" I keep hearing about?

I don't know who that is, but I imagine she has some level of intelligence if she was accepted to Yale.
