I think that the gender wage gap is a myth, because if companies could get the same work from women as from men for 23% less money, then companies would fire all their men and hire all-women staffs.
I'm in favor of gay marriage, but I think that transgenderism should be considered a disorder, not a variation of "normal." If you have a Y chromosome and male genitals, but you believe you are actually female, then I believe that you should be treated respectfully and with sympathy as someone who has a psychological disorder and is in need of treatment, not as a hero in a grand civil rights battle to overthrow the oppressive "patriarchy."
I support most gun control measures and abortion freedom (freedom, not "rights.") I also support the male abortion, the freedom for a man to sign away all rights and responsibilities to an unborn child, just as a woman has the freedom to abort it.
I don't think your political label is really what defines you. You merely have an extraordinary lack of empathy for anyone who isn't just like you. Self-centered works pretty well. But I don't think you have a psychological condition. I'd call it more of a character flaw. (I bolded the more glaring evidence.)
