My comment goes to speak about the sensationalism in this country in regards to their supposed moral fiber or lackthereof, which has been popular to denounce since the 1960's.

I'm not going to speak of this doctor or his ideals, but I will say, if one believes that sexuality is based in a part of one's brain, similar to that of in a ram (where 1 in 10 male ram's are homosexual) and one might determine that in many children, the wires may be crossed and guided toward a homosexual urge, or a bisexual urge, or a hyper-heterosexual urge, then one might then come to the conclusion that it could be fixed at an earlier age BEFORE a child has endured a short lifetime of criticism, laughter, self-loathing, confusion, and suicide. [Though if it were found out that a child did fix nature's mistake, I'm sure one would endure just as much trauma by people like Silas.]

It's not to say that I agree or disagree, but this thread very easily shows how unwilling many Americans are able to face change and new ideas with open minds. But then again, Bill O'Reilly has told you that it liberal ideas like these which are destroying the moral fabric of our country.

<gag>


P.S. If you found out your child would be MR/DD, or have Severe Hemophilia, and you had the power to change it, would you? Food for thought. [I hope those I attempt to connect with are open-minded enough to make the proper parallels]
Lots of assumptions, and we all know what they say about assumptions! As far as the rest of your post, Its been debated to death and I quite frankly am bored to tears of trying to have a logical discusion with people who arent sure if they are a man or a woman. Not sure what the hell Bill Oreilly has to do with anything in this thread? If my child had a sickness or a disease of course we would take appropriate course of action , If he wanted to start wearing dress's and be called Hanna, I would put a boot in his ass and ask him who the hell he'd been listening to.

I am a transsexual.
I work, and go to school, I have friends, I even go to church. My birth certificate has been changed in accordance with state law, and I pay my taxes. Outside of threads like this, I do not advertise it and it is not anyone's business. I even vote Republican (usually) so do not pretend to pigeonhole anyone because it only shows your ignorance of the subject matter. You sound more like a 700 Club soundbite.

I don't know if it's worth trying, Bulldogs... It's clear these two cro magnon's have been slurring and condemning the "abnormal" since they were children. I hope to their God they didn't raise children to be as judgemental and dispicable as they were themselves, as they still act and think like children. [Refer to his response of my citation toward homosexuality in nature]

Please view the October 2003 study by Dr. Charles E. Roselli et al. (Oregon Health and Science University) on male rams and homosexuality in nature. I believe I was wrong, however, as you may find his theory to have pin-pointed their homosexuality at a rate of approximately 8%.

(Hits myself in the face)
There are NO homosexual sheep.

Who said it was a crime?

It IS abnormal however.

Well, I guess my interest in biology and anthropology, the countless studies, have all been proven wrong by your definitive stance and myriad of sources and citations! [Oh, next time, could you please provide some...?]

Did you even read the studies? You only have to view 1-hour of PBS' Nature to observe homosexuality among apes and gorillas -- in case you're opposed to reading words, maybe you could watch television in order to learn? I really don't know what to say at this point.

Your sexuality is not a piece of paper OR how YOU feel....it is in your DNA.

No matter what you think or feel you are by your DNA the opposite sex to what you pretend to be.

Cutting off your wee-wee(or adding one on) doesn't make you anything but abnormal.

No need to make personal attacks either although I won't report it this time.
