Take this person for example:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rd3b3b8T2mQ

He, (and I will call him he) obviously seems to feel like being a woman, but assuming you believe it's really a legitimate thing, what is the difference between someone who should be considered transgendered and someone that just has other issues?

If, say, a guy such as in the aforementioned video who does a few things to look for like a woman and says they are a woman but is CLEARLY of the male sex albeit with no hormone replacements or what have you say they are female should we just go along with it? Should they have to do everything possible converting one's sex before they should be calling them what they say they are, or somewhere inbetween?

I may get some flack for this, but as a woman I know I would never accept at least what that person above a woman, no matter how much he may view himself female.

No.

You are personally authorized by the incoming Trump administration to stick your hands down anyone's pants, feel around, and stare at them in the face until you make your determination of their gender for them.

Who is the "We" that supposedly has the authority to "Allow" it? The U.S. Federal Government?

Yes the federal government is usually the one to pick who is and who isn't a protected class of people.

Although some city councils do this and cause State governments to "write discrimination" into the law and cause massive boycotts of their states by liberal businesses and the sheeple vote for men in women's bathroooms because money trumps all.

Look, Trump clearly authorized you to grab anyone by the *****.

If you do not find a ***** whilst grabbing someone, you are authorized to loudly proclaim their gender for them.

You know, because they might have forgotten it.

Then I want it outlawed because it doesn't agree with my religion.

This has nothing to do with the strange, unwelcome feelings I had as a teenager at summer camp for someone of the same sex as myself.

It's oppressing my religious liberty.
