Transexuals

[Brian37]

I think it's a mental illness, but I think they should be treated with utmost respect and allowed to go through procedures to change their gender. I don't believe it's the fault of the person.

We are to be compassionate to one another for the trials we are in. I have schizophrenia and bipolar and to be honest, prefer that, over being  stuck with wrong physical gender. It's one of the worse things I can imagine going through.

However that is not to disrespect the person. I have great respect to those who seek help of others, acknowledge their issue and change their gender realizing they are being true to themselves as best as possible.

Being a man stuck in a woman's body and being a woman stuck in man's body is a disorder and it's of mental type, but this just semantics.

Whatever you call it, you shouldn't disrespect the person for it. It's definitely not their fault.

I agree with everything on this post.

I don't, who made you boss? Nobody. Your fake pity is really nothing more than an excuse to feel superior, and one based on a very bigoted book. That is not empathy, that is selfish narcissism. Transgendered are not broken humans for you to fix or feel sorry for. 

Of course it is not their fault, because they have nothing to be sorry for. You should be ashamed that you think what you have is real empathy.
