Shouldn't we be free to evolve our identities?*
You can perform all the cosmetic changes you wish to change your superficial identity.

You can't change your genetics.

How about creating a world where people are comfortable in the skin they were born in, instead of changing the superficial to fit what they create in the fantasy land of their mind?

You can wear a superman cape, and jump off a building - doesn't mean you can fly.

You can shave your beard, take hormones to stop your beard from growing and take your voice up an octave or two, get breast implants, chop off your gonads, and wear a fancy dress - it doesn't make you a woman.

I don't give a flying F about trannies. Why is this even an issue? This seems like a distraction the elites are imposing on us to keep us from focusing on real issues that affect EVERYBODY.

It wasn't an issue until cities like Houston and Charlotte tried to give male sexual predators with exposure/voyeur fetishes legal permission to be in girls'/women's multiple occupancy restrooms/changing/locker/shower rooms merely by "claiming" to be transgender.

Houston's law failed. Charlotte's law passed, but then NC's HB2 negated it. And now Obama has demanded that schools allow it.

I decided I was a dog when I was about 2 years old.

It lasted for a day.

Then I decided I was a cat.

See other post. That's outmoded and in the past.

And if I'm ever required to provide my sex on a form, be assured that I'll be looking for the "female" (not cis-female) box. And if it's not there, I'll write it in.

Wake up, sheeple.
You can be intersex, or have intersex conditions. They do happen.

Right now, NYC acknowledges 31 gender identities. Facebook identifies 58.

Are people just making this stuff up on the fly? If so, I identify as a cisgender locomotive wizard, but on the weekend I identify as a synthgender hypersexual feline balloon.
