    I see no compelling evidence of psyche being an affliction of nature when we look at the gender identity aspect.

    It's based partly on knowledge, but I am not claiming to be a psychologist here.

    I would agree with this. What I object to is the move in recent years to proclaim it is a genetic affliction. All the data seems to suggest it is in fact nurture and not nature.

    However, as you said, calling it is almost impossible as with many other afflictions that psychologists have been fighting over for centuries.

    I have actually, so why dont you stop being so presumptuous?

    Unfortunately, Ive lived in some of the gay capitals of europe for far too long in the past.

    I never said it was a spur of the moment choice did I? So why dont you learn to read?

    People get evaluated for all surgery, look at cosmetic surgery for instance. Many go through with it, even after the doctors counsel them on how it wont solve all their problems like they would hope, but people still go through with it, often because of insecurities and poor self images. Many may feel they need the procedure, but even after being evaluated and declared of sound mind, that doesnt get to the heart of why they are doing it.

    So yes, gender re-assignment is another level entirely but the same principle still applies. The person may be psychologically fit enough to go through with the procedure and determined to go through with it but ultimately it may not make them happy and the best thing is to get counselling for their illness.

    - Through years of experience living among these types of people
    - Through my own unbiased research which is objective, where as your viewpoint is just full of obscenities and it is quite clear you lack an open mind
    - Through aiding professionals in their research in collating data

    What is your experience or knowledge apart from the sheltered fragments of re-collations off people not opening up fully to you?

    Hahaha, fair enough.

    But that is each individuals choice of how accepting they decide to be about it. That is what makes a free society. Tolerance means we legally have to afford everyone the same rights, however as I said before, tolerance isnt acceptance and no-one can force that.

    To put it another way, say the government lifted bans/laws on bestiality. Then one would have to be tolerant of someone humping their pet. You couldn't throw rotten fruit at them or call them a "dirty dog *****". However just because you legally have to acknowledge their lifestyle choice, doesnt mean you have to like it at all.

    No, just in my younger days, worked in bars, restaurants, etc. Many professional cleaners you speak to as well will echo the same sentiments.

    You would be surprised. Im quite meek, mild and polite in real life, even been told im too polite.

    Just because my views dont match yours, doesnt bear any resemblance to my personality. Im surprised many lack the maturity to acknowledge that.

    Big girl...but still definitely a girl.

    I'd love to know what happens when she finds a big hairy spider in her bathtub.

    Kim won't go in there all day.

    Clearly not a proper contractor then.

    Personally I wouldn't give a flying tulip - just as long as my timesheet still gets approved.
