A woman, who used to have an abusive, husband decides that her infant son is gay.  Growing up, the boy gets no "boy" toys, and "male" behavior is directly discouraged.  Boy grows up being made fun of.

  Elsewhere, a reporter interviews a five year old male about his sexual identity.  The boys says he's a girl in a boys body, and he feels terrible about it.  He'd like to cut off his penis and smash it with a hammer.

  But enough about child abuse.  This post is about transgenders, transsexuals, transvestites, and the whole trans concept as it relate to males and females.

  "I'm a woman in a man's body." No, you're a man, period.  If you're unclear about your gender, then get a DNA test and see if there are any Y chromosomes.  How you "feel" doesn't change genetic fact.

  Cutting off your dick doesn't change you into a woman.  It just makes you a dickless man.  Taking hormones to raise your voice and grow tits doesn't make you a woman.  It just makes you a high-voiced, big-titted man who got that way by injecting into himself something he wasn't supposed to have, by decree of his DNA.

  You want to wear "women's" clothes because they feel good?  Okay.  Go for it.  You want to wear them because you like the fashion?  Great.  You want to wear them to make a statement?  Well, you're pretty much just looking for attention.  Get a life.

  You want to wear "women's" clothes because you think of yourself as a woman while your DNA says otherwise?  You are delusional.  Your identity crisis is a psychological issue.

  Psychological femininity and masculinity are influenced by hormones and life experiences, but most importantly, they are generalizations.  Femininity is an attribute stereotypically associated with females, and masculinity with males.

  I'm wondering how many "trans" supporters claim to be opposed to stereotypical gender roles or gender stereotypes in general.  If you claim you're a woman in a man's body, then you're just opposing one gender stereotype while buying into the other.  If you support such gender concepts, then you're doing the same thing.  You're a hypocrite.

  Naturally, all this goes for females who are pining to be males.  It doesn't matter what gender you are or your sexual preference.  If you are one gender and trying to be another, then you are a pretender.  You're fooling yourself.  You are unable to accept reality.  And on some level, you are self-loathing.

  Most amazingly, you're inflicting mental anguish upon yourself by buying into a gender stereotype.  Why are you buying into the stereotype?

  But what are my personal opinions on the matter, you may ask?  When it comes to masculinity and femininity, I don't like when either gender behaves excessively in either direction.  It's a person getting way too far off center.

  How about clothes?  Well, if you can pull off wearing it, then go ahead.  In an episode of America's Next Top Model, Mr. Jay wore a dress-like outfit, and I was thoroughly impressed by how great he looked in it.  And the general idea of women wearing "men's" clothes?  I sure as hell don't have a problem with that.  It's a bit of a turn on, but it all depends on how the person looks and exactly what it is they're wearing.

  These things are aesthetic values.  There are certain things I rather not see worn by males or females; never mind whether they are "men's" or "women's" articles or accessories.
