| ,kb; 1) That is stupid. Anyone who supports such a proposal should be evaluated. Well, it's eventually going to become a reality. Frankly, I don't think that you would react negatively to it at all. If a man were to have his sex completely changed at the molecular level, conceive a child, give birt... |

| I don't think that racism plays so much a role anymore. At one point, it may have been a factor, but nowadays...not so much. Racism is no longer popular, even among the working class. In fact, it's really a mega-way for one to come off as an idiot. American racists, these days, are the worst possibl... |

| It's a big, loosely organized country. These things are going to happen. There are simply a few places here in which a culture of misconduct has taken root. In other parts of the country, you will find some of the safest places in the world to be. It's not that the US is perfect. There are just a fe... |

| No one is afraid of progressing. It has to do with values. There is no need in having homosexual marriages. The first sentence above is false - I have heard open, trustworthy people admit that even though a new situation would probably be better, they are afraid to bring it about, because they are ... |

| 1) The person who would take up such a task should have his medical license remove, even for thinking about it. Nope. If sex changes could be taken to the molecular level, then a person having undergone such a procedure really would become a member of the opposite sex, with all the bells and whistl... |

| jgkjhkjhk. 1) Such an event would be abhorrent. This was said of a number of things, and the sky didn't come falling down. 2) Do you not consider the emotions of the partner? Most assuredly. That's the idea. 3) It would be rude for the transsexual to not disclose his natural sexuality before enteri... |

Okay, there are obviously plenty of you who do not espouse any religious views or beliefs, but WHAT are you?
By the way: excuse me for not including "secular humanist," for I am sure that they are here in quantity. |

I truly cannot support this. ...even though the guy just wants to live a normal life, as a male. That's your... |

It is completely asinine that you're to make such an issue over a guy who just wants to change his gender, and you're even more asinine to compla... |

Pest control. 2) If he does not disclose his original gender then he is less than a pig. Nope. It just m... |

That's the idea behind it as far as I'm concerned. Even if they were doing it just for kicks and giggles, though, I just wouldn't care. Frankly, ... |

Obviously. 2) Just as the lot here are easily critical of the religious community--some even "religiously" critical, I too am very critical of the transgendered. Be critical all you want. Hormone replacement seems to work. I wonder what my psych. will tell me if... |
