Ain't that the truth.
This is how the sanctimonious bully playbook works:
1. Be bigoted against a group and tell them at every possible opportunity that something is fundamentally wrong with them
2. They get depressed and commit suicide
3. Now you get to say: told you so, them be crazy! Now your work is done and you're allowed to feel even better about yourself.
Kick'em when they're down I say!

I have also been accustomed to a certain degree of privacy 
It's interesting about the health side of things. But I agree, why can't you also have privacy, if it were to be introduced to the West? I suppose in some cultures people don't care about it so much, which is cool.

So that just blows drippy's entire argument right out of the water.

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 confused over my 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.
The irony. You're making the most sense here.
LMAO at that, actually. [emoji13]

Is Dirch just like AF's pet troll? He says some horribly uninformed things, doesn't see how they could be taken that way at all, and constantly just restates his own position with a little word salad thrown in.
Yes. Lol.

Liberal theists think they are kind, and as well intended as they may be, there still is nothing in their holy book that explains in any real sense why humans have their biological differences. I love the empathy of my fellow humans, but when it comes to explaining reality, a holy book still is not a study or a lab, it is a personal like.
