S/he is probably a chimera, i.e., a person who started out as twins of opposing sexes, but fused very early in the process of gestation.  It's definitely not a psychological problem.  I suppose s/he is whatever s/he wants to call her/himself.  It is an extremely rare condition.

Ambiguous genitalia is more common that we realize.  I recall meeting a woman who was Native American, a librarian, and she shared that trait of hers with me one day while chatting in my office. 

"If you ask experts at medical centers how often a child is born so noticeably atypical in terms of genitalia that a specialist in sex differentiation is called in, the number comes out to about 1 in 1500 to 1 in 2000 births. But a lot more people than that are born with subtler forms of sex anatomy variations, some of which won’t show up until later in life."

"Total number of people receiving surgery to “normalize” genital appearanceone or two in 1,000 births"

We have become a literal freak show, and I believe we are unsuspecting participants in someone's mad experiments.  Preyed on our weaknesses.

This is a great site for checking out financial information, but boy is it homophobic. Too bad even in a site that seems to get it, they really don't they cannibalize as bad as the liberals.

No better sign that the pussification of America continues apace.

Truly ashamed of my country.  What a strange feeling.

gay people have done themselves a great disservice. again, the bottom half of the class reigns. the last bastion of the real rainbow is in hawaii. everywhere else it is a symbol of deviant sex, nothing more. the normalization of gay sex is a semantic issue. the reality remains that gay sex is deviant(not that there is anything wrong with deviant sex) sex just as the reality that the civil war was only about states rights and the federalization of the usa. the last bastion of the true meaning of a rainbow only exists in hawaii now. the faggots haven't usurped that symbol of the state of hawaii, yet.

i harbor no ill will towards gay people. they have the right, like all other unpopular positions(lol), to voice their opinions and go through the channels to defend their rights but that right has been taken away from the confederate flag in the court of ignorant public opinion. most gays don't believe the confederate flag should have free speech rights but they don't understand or accept anyone who voices the same opinion of gay rights. that position(lol, too easy, sorry) is enough for me to say fuck the raindow flag and the entire gay political movement and all the fags and fag sympathizers who support deviant sex between the same gender.

The ongoing ascendance of the whole agenda for the queering of America (indeed, the world) is as parabolic and absent of fundamental basis as the stawk market. 

And, just like with the market, the correction will be a bitch. 

[Who was that ma...]

Anything to keep the people pre-occupied and their minds off the reality of what is happening.

Good stuff. I'm happy in my traditional marriage. If gay marriage has 40-50% divorce rate, the lawyers, judges, marriage counselors, and mediation specialists are going to have a lot more revenue. I am happy that people have the freedom of choice to enter marriage if they want, which includes getting the State involved in your relationship, the possibility for pre-nups, alimony, child support, marriage tax penalty, loss of assets, expensive legal bills. It's all worth it if you are lucky enough to enter marriage with the right person, but that is rare. Of the 50-60% that don't divorce there is probably another 30% that stay in an unhappy union.

On the civil war and flag, fine with the flag being out of publically funded places (except museums). It was the battle flag and the war is over. I still am too ignorant on the history of the war to make judgements on primary causes, but i'm sure the bankers were in the back making money hand over fist. They had to hate the greenbacks and love the expansion of loans on both sides. On Lincoln, I have to track down that 9 volume set of Lincoln's papers and speeches to be able to judge for myself instead of any media or author's spin.

“I have two great enemies, the Southern army in front of me and the bankers in the rear. And of the two, the bankers are my greatest foe.”

-Abraham Lincoln, 1863. Speaking about the banker’s attempts to limit the functionality of Greenbacks through the National Banking Act passed that year.

Don't Red Neck Hicks have a right to express their lifestyle choice too... ?

Sad... the big picture here is that .gov should have no involvement, concern, etc. in marriage whatsoever.  It's not an issue for the Feds or the State'ys at all... nothing to do with governance.  To some it's a religious institution, to some it's smiply spiritual, etc.  Go get married to a fencepost for all I care... I mean really, what has this changed?  Nothing... 'cept now you can visit your "significant other" fuck buddy if they need to stay in the hospital for some reason.  Truly sad what gets this world worked up.
