Kansas Lawmaker: Transgenders Suffering From “Insanity”
Posted On 29 Jun 2016
Kansas State Senator Steve Fitzgerald threw liberals into a tizzy this week when he surmised that being transgender was not a valid lifestyle choice; that it was, in fact, a symptom of a delusional mind.
“You’re either male or you’re female, and it’s not changeable,” Fitzgerald said in a speech criticizing the Obama administration’s attempts to force public schools to cater to trans students. “It’s reality. Inability to deal with that reality, or to recognize that reality, is disoriented, and can be disoriented to the point of insanity.”
Fitzgerald’s speech probably wouldn’t have raised an eyebrow even five years ago, but a lot has changed since then. The newest edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders still includes transgenderism, but instead of labeling it “gender identity disorder,” it now goes under the name “gender dysphoria.” But there is plenty of reason to believe that this switch was based less on science than it was pressure from the LGBT community.
Listen to Dr. Jack Drescher, a member of the American Psychiatric Association and a co-author of the new DSM-5 entry, as he admits that the definition sticks out like a sore thumb in the manual. “Gender dysphoria is a diagnosis in the DSM-5, but it’s unlike any of the other diagnoses in the DSM,” Drescher said. “I think it’s the only diagnosis where, if you have the diagnosis, we don’t try to change the mind, but the treatment is to change the body.”
Rule of thumb: When one listing out of hundreds is unique, and that listing happens to address a subject fraught with this much political controversy, something fishy is going on. Psychiatry – to the extent that it was ever a serious science to begin with – has been hijacked by the left. And the consequences could extend far beyond the question of gender identity. This is an attempt to glaze over a political ideology with a thin veneer of soft science. If it works, we could see the same trickery used to justify any number of liberal positions. Criminality and perversions will be reclassified as “human variations”; views opposing liberal causes like abortion and illegal immigration will be deemed pathological.
Unfortunately, no one is being hurt more by this trend than transgender individuals themselves. Psychiatrists have abandoned the search for curative treatments, dooming these individuals to a life of mental illness. Some will feel comfortable in their new identities (the ones we see celebrated in the media), but thousands of others will lead confusing, miserable lives that end in tragedy. Letting them use the bathrooms of their choice is hardly going to change that.
Well spoken.
They are sick MF’s and need help. A mental hospital would work with a few shock treatments.,
Ah, but, Saint Ronald Reagan disbanded all the mental hospitals so there is nowhere for these poor delusional people to go to get their shock treatments.
Kind of sounds like you need to be in one of those. If you need a shock treatment I’m sure we can fix you up with one.
Kind of sounds like you are trying to be clever. Pity you are unaware that shock treatment is used to treat depression and related disorders such as bipolar and schizophrenia. There is absolutely no evidence that I can find of it having the slightest effect on a person’s perception of their gender.
Obviousky, like always, liberal’s brains cannot grasp truth and common sense. This also shows they have a problem also which most likely can’t be fixed either.
Which truth and common sense would that be?
The fact that is being transgender is a mental problem that can be treated and should be. Did you read the article? Liberals for the most part can’t seem to accept that reality but want to legitimise it based on feelings. They also can’t see the problems of allowing different biological sexes in the same restrooms. Now why is all this so hard for anyone to understand. It’s not about civil rights. It’s about moral correctness. Everyone has a right to use the bathroom, just not mixing sexes. It is really pretty simple.
I read the article. Or rather the opinion piece. As there are no sources of information cited, or studies quoted, this does not meet even the most basic standards for journalism (ie, reporting the news).
If being transgender were a mental problem, then absolutely it should be treated. But it is not. Being gay is not a mental problem. There have been many attempts to treat both conditions, shall we say, with no success whatsoever.
Although one cannot use one case to prove a point either way, one of closest friends was openly gay when we first met him. Then he fell in love with a woman who very much wanted to marry him. He went to endless therapy sessions and they did eventually marry and have two children. They are still married and very happy together, but no longer as man and wife – he is once again batting for the other side, so to speak.
I have to admit that I would not be comfortable using a (female) public restroom where a man was peeing into a urinal. I am also not that comfortable with the way stalls are set up so there is a peephole on either side of the door (a uniquely American trait, in my experience).
Make the doors extend from side to side and I personally don’t care who is on the other side.
And Jim, what would be your reaction if this person walked into the men’s room:

Yes, both are mental, and spiritual “problems”, and need to be managed as such. Affirmation is the wrong answer; it’s enabling, like giving booze to an alcoholic instead of helping him recover!
I’m sorry, but it is only your opinion that they are mental and spiritual problems.
What about someone who “thinks” that one leg is shorter than the other. Are you going to suggest he or she prays to get better or are you going to suggest a built-up shoe?
Depends on whether an orthopod diagnoses 1 leg actually shorter than the other. Apples and potatoes; a skeltal deformity is an objective, measurable problem which can be corrected with orthotics or surgery, in most cases. A male who “thinks” he’a female, flying in the face of objective physical proof to the contrary, is a delusional ( mentally ill) person, who needs psychotherapy to correct his broken thought patterns, not surgery to alter his body to fit the delu.sion.
And what about the unfortunate people who are born with seemingly male external organs, but also have ovaries, even a uterus? It’s rare but it happens. Is that also delusional?
There are also reported cases where the doctor just got it wrong. After all babies don’t have testicles, and that baby penis is awfully tiny. Any swelling of the female parts could be mistaken for a penis.
Read this http://www.hormonesmatter.com/hormone-treatment-pregnancy-gender-variance/ and then comment again.
How many hermaphrodites do you actually personally know? I know exactly 1. That is SUCH a rare defect as to be laughable in this discussion, and generally speaking 1set of those organs is vestigial, doesn’t function. Babies DO have testicles and if they’re not descended at birth the child is carefully watched, for possibly necessary surgical intervention. Do try to get informed, before you try arguing this with a professional.
I was at school (all girls, boarding) with a hermaphrodite, so one for me also.
Of course baby boys have testicles, but in up to 10% of births, both can be undescended. As a professional, I’m sure you know that.
Of course I know it; it’s 1of the standard checks of a newborn upon admission to the nursery. As I said such babies are watched for possibly necessary surgical intervention. That doesn’t mean the baby isn’t a boy.
Physical appearance is only one part of determining gender (at least as a mere non-professional like me understands it). There are so many things that can go wrong during a pregnancy that it is actually a miracle that so many babies are born with the right number of fingers and toes, and all necessary organs. But you can’t tell what is going on inside, what may be just a little bit off kilter. How many genetic abnormalities only show up later (I don’t know – you tell me).
Are you absolutely, 100% sure that there is nothing that happens during pregnancy that could affect a child’s sexuality or gender orientation? 100% sure?
Yes, I am that sure. But I’m also very aware “science” is bought and paid for these days, .
Then you are not much of a scientist, are you? And I rather hope that I do not come across you in your “professional” capacity.
I look for objective truth; not the party line answer that’s paid for. That’s what real science does!
See comment below.
Objective truth has nothing to do with party politics. We agree on that. But Jesus as the ultimate objective truth?
BRAVO AGAIN SANDRA!
Don’t you get the impression that ‘Elizabeth’ really is a man pretending to be a woman? Way too defensive on the topic.
Not necessarily, but definitely some form of dysfunctional personality. Far too defensive of the other dysfunctionals.
BRAVO Sandra.
Couldn’t have said it better.
And the syrupy garbage you write is only your opinions as you try to convince others your a) a woman and b) righteous in your defense of the deviants among us. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not for harming anyone for things like this – unless they approach children or try to force themselves on others. But I do see a need to call a spade a spade – reality is a wonderful way to see the world we live in. You on the other hand are steeped in fantasy.
Syrupy? Not quite how I would describe my cutting edge ideas and witty prose, but we all have our own vocabulary.
Certainly, I express my opinions, but unlike many others on this site, I am able to back them up with hard evidence. My opinions are not plucked out of the sky, they are not the stuff of fantasy. My opinions have been formed over a number of years of reading widely from many different sources.
I do not need to convince anyone that I am a woman: I fill a C-cup and gave birth to three children. I defend anyone that is getting a raw deal. When you provide evidence of transgender people ‘approach(ing) children or try(ing) to force themselves on others’ I will take it very seriously.
Years ago I use to see a man who walked the streets of the East Village in NYC. As he walked around he blessed everyone he passed telling them that he was Jesus. What’s the difference between his mental problems and those who are other than straight? Both have mental problems that should be dealt with as soon as possible. Neither live in the real world. And that’s what Elizabeth doesn’t get.
You won’t like it if I say that those who believe Jesus was conceived by an angel and delivered to a virgin, probably don’t have much knowledge of the real world either, so I won’
Would you agree that while there are some exceptionally tall women and some very tiny ones, the vast majority stand between 5’2″ and 5’6″? Would you also accept that you know same rather effeminate straight men, and some rather butch straight women? Is that their choice? Or is it just the way they are? I am right in the middle, 5’4″, strong maternal instincts (from the age of about 8), married for nearly 40 years, three kids. I could never have CHOSEN to be anything else. I was lucky. Those at the extremes of gender variation or sexual orientation aren’t so lucky. And they also know where they stand and what they are from about 8 years on.
Your opinions of Christ/Christianity are the same as most homosexuals – interesting.
Christianity/Christ was not the point of my statement. I was pointing out how that man had a mental problem and his answer to it was to become Christ. Those who are other than straight have mental problems and their answer to these problems is to engage in deviant sex. I would also add that when a child/young person engages in deviant sex as their first sexual experience(s) they identify with deviant sex. Those who are deviants know this and go after young people to initiate them into their sexual activities. Its long been a problem here in NYC that police have reported on – i.e. seeing homosexual men take young boys into their club in the Village.
While I have no way of knowing how many homosexuals are also atheists, it would not surprise me at all if the number was very high. Who is going to worship a god that played such a nasty trick on them? Because, whatever you say to the contrary, being sexually ‘deviant’ is not a choice.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLc-bh_DrKw is an immensely powerful – and heartbreaking – statement about what it is like to be born a homosexual.
You by your very comments, prove that you are spiritually and mentally bankrupt. If you understood anything about God precious word, you would know he doesn’t play “cruel tricks” on anyone. That is Satan’s job. God is truth, clarity and freedom. Satan is confusion, lies and bondage. Now looking at the world; who would you say is running rampant at this time in the world? Forget that question, you are too confused to answer.
Spiritually bankrupt – guilty as charged. Just as I have no religion, I have no spirituality. For me they are one and the same thing. Mentally bankrupt? No. Even though i am aging and occasionally have senior moments, my mental capacity is pretty damn good.
So tell me. How does this work? God is the Creator, but Satan has a say in things. He gets to play cruel tricks from time to time. But God, the all-powerful can;t stop that?
So Satan gets to interfere and make some people ‘different’. Anyone who does not conform to your idea of normal was obviously the work of Satan, not God.
Yes, I am confused. Please, please, please enlighten me.
One thing is very obvious, you have no spirituality. Actually, you do, but you keep it buried, afraid to let it go free, because of it was free, it would see the Truth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus. As I just reread this morning in “2 Corinthians 4:4 – The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.” The god of this age is Satan. Satan has blinded you to the truth, which means you let satan rule your life.
Yep!
He doesn’t go in the bathroom with our little girls or women
But did he want to use the bathroom with women, instead of using the Men’s? Yes, both have mental problems, one is harmless, the other a sexual pervert.
My point was that lots of people with mental illnesses think they are someone they are not. Your point is that the Jesus guy doesn’t go into the girls bathroom. This means you totally missed my point. No one with a functioning brain wants men in the ladies room.
There is only 1 truth, an objective fact; and common sense agrees with that truth.
You not knowing the answer to that says a lot about your mentality..
My ‘mentality’ is not to make assumptions. I THINK I know what Sandra Lee is referring to when she says there is only 1 truth, but she hasn’t actually come out and said so. I was merely asking for clarification. Do you know what she meant?
just looking like a women doesn’t make you a women , you don’t get pms , , you can’t have babies , and wishing to be a women is like wishing for a million dollars , not going to happen, i feel sorry for them , for being so unhappy with who they really are , but it’s not my problem, they should worry more about the important things , instead of what is between there legs, after 2 failed marriages , i won’t put up with any of the bitches anymore , who would want to be a women any ways, women want to be men and men want to be women , doesn’t get any more f**ked up then that , and you have a freak in the white house who is just as sick for pushing this garbage, just like bing gay or a lesbian , it’s a matter of sexual habits and that is all
INDEED, we seem to be living in ‘crazy times’, Richard! ~ Sadly, it seems that a person is better off living single these days, my friend!
After 2 failed marriages have you considered the possibility that YOU might be the problem?
Your comments are stupid at best. This issue has nothing to do with what someone looks like. It’s about who they are inside. Sorry to be so blunt, Richard, but you are a dumbass of massive proportions, and based on that photo, you’re ugly as hell. Who or what would want to marry you?
Eric Pearson. Because you are immediately in attack mode over Richard B’s comment, you have to be sympathetic with the craziness of political correctness going on today. Yes, many people, especially todays youth, are overmedicated and thought process incapacitated. The government has succeeded in dumbing down the population and given people a whole new and crippled way of viewing the world we live in. I view it as a crime against humanity.
You’re nuts, too. How about providing a list of the “crimes against humanity” the big, bad government has inflicted upon you. I’ll take a nap while you compile your list.
You apparently already napped through it all.
Just as I thought. You don’t have a list. You’re just one of those gullible morons who believes everything that you think confirms what you already think you know. In reality you don’t actually know anything. I suspect you have a thing for hatred. It’s not that unusual. My guess is that you are in a group consisting of about a quarter of our population. Blame the big, bad government for everything.
It all that gets you off, go for it.
you want to stay married to women the whore around on you that’s fine with me , i won’t put up with it , i raised 2 daughters for 20 year by my self , unless you know the facts i think you should think before commenting , well i really don’t care , if god gave you a set of ball that make you a male , if he didn’t that makes you female , and there ain’t a god dam thing you can do to change it so dress like a freak and be treated like a freak it still doesn’t change what you really are, and i worked with them all and i have no problem with them , that’s who they want to be fine , just don’t try and make me give up my beliefs and there is no problem , the problem i have is they are trying to convince me this is a natural thing and it ain’t and today i see 2 guys swapping spit in public it makes me sick i can accept it from lesbians because women are more of the kissing type and have bin kissing other women for hundreds of years and i even like to watch at times, but guys kissing guys on the lips no . maybe because i had a bad experiacnce while i was young witch is another story , i was a devoted husband and did every thing a good husband should do but with druggies and whores all bets are off
OMG! You really are a fruitcake. I’m sure you’re a very valuable prize of a husband, but why don’t we just drop it for now.
Who they are inside is exactly right. With surgery and drugs, a person can change every aspect of external identity, but inside, they’ll still be exactly what they were born with; male organs and the XY chromosome means you’re a male, female organs and XX chromosomes mean you’re female. Really pretty simple, straightforward, and DNA that’s permanent, set in stone for a lifetime.
If you’re trying to prove a point you’ve failed. To understand this issue one must look at it from every angle, not just the angle that supports your rigid line of thought.
Why should it even matter to you anyway? What is it about this issue that makes it an issue for you? Are you struggling with some deep, dark secret? Or, are you just mean?
I agree with all you have said except “who would want to be a woman?” I am a woman and love being a woman because that is what God designed me to be. It sickens me to see so many women who are “man haters” and who hate themselves because they are women. Lesbianism and all forms of homosexuality are from a degenerate mind and are totally against nature and God’s intended use for the male and female relationship. These people will never be happy because they are going against what they are and what they were created to be. Men and women were made to compliment each other and only in the male / female relationship will they be complete.
well i agree , as for the women part i’m talking about people who ain’t a women and want to be a women, why would anyone want to have to put up wioth the bull shit women have to put up wit , tampons ,pms change of life , and all the socalled test use have to do to keep your privets clean
I see that now in re-reading your post. Thank you.
Beautifully said
Thank you very much.
It may be beautifully said. But it’s rubbish.
Fuckin` A, man!!!!!!!
Ali-Bama just cant help himself.He wont rest until he’s driven the whole damned country to a world of Fagdom.He just loves poking conservatives in the eye and force feeding us this demented Horse shit. He flipped his view after he realized he could get more votes from Queers and dumb impressionable Pop Culture Worshiping Millennials out of the deal back in 2012,He said he was going to transform America and he’s doing just that! Turning us into Sodom and Gomorrah !
This WHOLE COUNTRY is suffering from insanity! Need proof? Look who they “elected” the last TWO times!!!
More than half this country is on prescribed drugs and now we have a generation of grown children who have been treated for ADHD since they could walk..brains totally destroyed and it is only getting worse. Adults drugged up by 50 yrs old for their remaining life with maintenance drugs..cholesterol, blood pressure, osteoporosis, depression, chemotherapy, pain…all destroy health and brains. The population is chemically incapcitated..sickening. Now all this crap is in our drinking water. This makes it so easy for these controllers to further confuse our young with this gender twisting to further destroy the family and a beautiful male/ female relationship. All policy made by governments is to change society in the direction they want to gain their control over us, they will use whatever means possible.
Love how you articulated those words,only wish I could have said it,so agree.
You are quite right that the population is chemically incapacitated, and this is a huge problem. But it is not the government because, you know what? governments change but the problem remains.
If you want to blame government – and this applies to both major parties – blame them for allowing capitalism to spiral out of control. Because the spiral is upwards, many people (yourself included, I suspect) think that is perfectly OK.
We have a situation now where corporations control the world, and use their immense profits to influence law makers in order to consolidate their control (lower corporate taxes, subsidies for highly profitable businesses, trade deals, minimal regulation, immunity from prosecution in white collar crimes). For some reason conservatives cannot grasp the fact that all this ‘growth’ and ‘progress’ does not benefit the average American. The government did not cause the recession (neither Bush nor Obama); Wall Street was responsible.
And that’s not all, as they say. The big pharmaceutical companies promote their drugs through huge advertising campaigns and freebies to doctors. I bet that Americans could stop taking one-third of the medications they are currently taking and they would be better off. Much of the medication is excess and is excreted one way or another and finds its way into the water – absolutely right. There it is joined by pollutants from agricultural runoff (factory farms also use far too many chemicals) and unregulated industrial discharge. And pollution of air and water from fossil fuel extraction, and it is a wonder that any of us are healthy.
But back to the subject in hand – transgender Americans: are they mentally ill, or are they perhaps the victims of a hormonal imbalance during the pregnancy, as has been suggested by several researchers. My feeling is that “it’s something in the water” may really be the answer.
No hormonal imbalance during pregnancy; that produces spontaneous abortion not delusional thinking; the latter comes from improper teaching, as in LEARNED behavioral disorders, and what was learned needs to be unlearned!
Are you seriously suggesting that a parent is going to teach his or her young child that it would be really cool to be a boy instead of a girl? Or a girl instead of a boy? What do you say, as a parent, “Now little Johnny, let’s call you Jane, this is a bit of a lark. You are going to have an awful time at school because all the other kids are going to tease and bully you for being different. But, hey, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Then when you grow up, the adults will have a go and call you all sorts of names and make you use the men’s room even though you look exactly like a woman, with breasts and such (we’ve got you covered with the hormone treatment). Sure they will mock you and probably grope you because that’s the way men are, and that’s why we decided that you would be much better off as a girl.”??
No, I’m not “suggesting” it, I’m stating they do it, often without meaning to, or even knowing they are, although not always unaware. Parents and others who influence a child’s early development often do unspeakable damage to those children, because of their own unresolved issues.
Same as those parents who persuade their vulnerable children that if they don’t eat their vegetables (or whatever) God will be very angry with them and they will never get to Heaven to be with baby Jesus.
Baby Jesus isn’t now and never was in heaven, but that type of lie is usually quite conscious and intentional, the other is not usually, although it’s getting more so.
I thought that you’d pick up on the ‘baby’ part. So what do you tell your children?
The the truth about Who Jesus is, of course.
And what, exactly, is that truth? The only evidence you have that Jesus actually existed is the Bible which has been, not unfairly, described as ‘
a book
based on 5th hand accounts of fairy tales told by goat herders in the
Bronze Age’.
You, and about a billion others, believe that Jesus is the Son of God, yada yada yada. Another billion believe that Jesus was just a minor prophet and that the true word of God/Allah was spread through a real prophet, Mohammed. The other 5 billion people on the planet either have an equally loopy belief system, or do not have any beliefs at all. So what is the truth?
You really need to stop bringing your lack of Christian beliefs into this discussion. It isn’t relevant.
Oh, yes, it is. Atheists, agnostics and, as they used to be called – free-thinkers accept every human being for what he or she is. It is only those who adhere to a religion who find the different among us to be threatening.
You “threatening”??? Bwahaha
“Free-thinkers” lol
I find you pitiful and your comments vacuous.
And what is that supposed to mean? You have said nothing that I can respond to. I wonder why?
He is THE way, THE Truth, and THE life (emphasis mine) ,whether you or anyone else believes or rejects that, and there is no other answer. Paul was no goatherder, he was a well educated man, fluent in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek, as well as Latin. Peter, Andrew James and John were fishermen, it’s true. Matthew was a tax collector, so also educated (Romans were somewhat intolerant of errors in their taxes due), that means he was proficient in the “3 Rs”. They weren’t 5th hand accounts. Peter’s nephew, (John) Mark was his scribe. John was clearly literate. Your information, aside from biased, is also inaccurate.
You love to hear yourself speak don’t you?
Anyone that believes Jesus was a minor prophet is just like a tranny. In need of serious psychiatric help. Oh, and by the way Christians don’t believe in killing trannies, gays or the like. Yeah, that group that thinks the “real” prophet crap…they think beheading cures all of it lol.
Oh and by the way, no need for a response. I’ve read several of your .. let’s just say hairbrained, liberal lined drivel. I get it, your indoctrinated with the dogma speak.
Technically what I am doing is writing, not speaking, but let’s not bother about that.
Now, I want to get this right. you are saying that Muslims (the billion who believe that Jesus was just a minor prophet) are the same as transgender people? That is an idea bound to make a LOT of people very unhappy.
Beheading is gruesome, no doubt about it. But that rather civilized country, France, used the guillotine as their preferred means of execution until 1977. Then they saw the light and abandoned capital punishment altogether, something the US has not yet done (along with China, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, North Korea, Pakistan, Yemen, Indonesia, Bangladesh and Iran). Lynching occurred in the US until 1968 (!!!!!!). So don’t get all righteous with me.
And what, pray, is dogma speak?
Technically…what I was saying was you like to hear or see what you say.
Second.. If they think Jesus was a minor prophet…yep, just as confused and in need of psychiatric help. I really don’t give a rats ass if they get all butt hurt…they think we are infidels. So get over it!!!
You use criminal judgement by courts of law as an example to excuse those lowbreed sharia law following gomers?
Righteous with you??? I don’t have to be righteous.. Dimwits like you think that people that are psychopaths should be locked up…sorry, when they have killed because of an urge, I don’t want to pay to have them incarcerated for the rest of their lives. Now if you bleeding hearts want to pay for it, they need to have somewhere on your tax return to check off and say you want it deducted from your income. Just like pediphiles, they now think that because you wingnuts want to justify trannies their next. You know, it’s not something they can help….see you dummies want mental disease to be okay and hunky dory.
dog·mat·ic

adjective
inclined to lay down principles as incontrovertibly true.
“he gives his opinion without trying to be dogmatic”
synonyms: opinionated, peremptory, assertive, insistent, emphatic, adamant, doctrinaire, authoritarian, imperious, dictatorial, uncompromising, unyielding, inflexible, rigid
“your being so dogmatic does not attract me to your religious philosophy”
Take the above definition and add speak…simple enough for you? Has to do with you lack of common sense…
your worried about the water? try reading all of the chemicals that are added to the food now, there is the way of destroying our health. as an old fart, I remember before all of this crap was introduced into our food, none of us kids were on any kind of drugs, no one needed counseling, we were all healthy. we didn’t run to the doctor if our kids were making guns out of sticks, or try to sue parents if the kids got into a fight. kids fought and the next day were the best of friends again. we knew that some of us might get to go to college and most of us not. but we didn’t demand anything from anyone, all it got you would be a kick in the ass. kids today are so screwed up that our future leaders need a separate room to go to if their feelings get hurt. pathetic, they don’t need a private room, they need a swift kick in their pansy asses. and I still say its the chemicals in the food nowdays.
It’s in the water is as much a metaphor as an actual statement of fact. Although, whatever is in the food passes through us and does in fact end up in the water.
You are so right about chemicals in food, if you can call the chemical-laden crap that comes in boxes food. There are ways to avoid the rubbish. One way is known as bar-code-free eating. It’s quite simple: if there is a bar code on your ‘food’ you don’t want it. There is plenty left – farmers’ markets, stuff you grow yourself, or that your neighbor grow and trades, locally raised and slaughtered meat, the produce, bakery and deli sections of your local supermarket.
I also agree with most of the rest of what you say: it is very easy to go too far trying not to hurt someone’s feelings. Or rather, it is much too easy to say that you are offended by something that is not really all that offensive.
It’s a mess, David, no doubt about that. What are we going to do about it?
Wasn’t Me . I voted for the AMERICAN . NOT the ILLEGAL TREASONOUS KENYA MUZZY FRAUD
Gosh. I seem to have missed that option.
No doubt.
Like most of your kind … lol
And what is my kind? Those who recognize sarcasm when they see it? Those who recognize that our current president was born in Hawaii as his birth certificate says, that he is not a Muslim. As the son of a Kenyan national, he does indeed qualify for Kenyan citizenship. But there is no evidence that Obama, jr ever applied for a Kenyan passport which is necessary to initiate the process of becoming a Kenyan.
You’ll have to fill me in on the treasonous part,because that is an area here I am totally ignorant.
Yeah…Texans elected Gomer Gohmert. Floridians elected Scott. The list of republican nut cases who were re-elected goes on ad nauseum.
Great point!!!!
If you eliminate voter fraud (estimated to be around 6 % or more of the vote) and the fact that our military’s votes were not counted, Obama didn’t win. And the 2nd time around voter fraud was even higher. So the whole country isn’t nuts. What we should be focusing on is preventing voter fraud and insuring our military’s votes are counted. You’d better believe Hillary is counting on voter fraud to win. People registered to vote in multiple states just to cast more than one vote for Obama – some voted as many as 6 times. THIS is our problem.
Those are serious accusations you are making. Do you have evidence to support them that would, you know, stand up in a court of law?
Isn’t there a leftist webpage you want to post to? Or are you just here as a troll?
I wrote about the news I’ve read in major newspapers. I guess you just read the Hillary Daily. We’re not in court and I can’t help it if you can’t keep up or are less than informed. Do searches on voter fraud in the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections – educate yourself!
You are the only person discussing voter fraud here. The rest are talking about transgender issues.
(I’m not deliberately trolling, but it is so much more interesting to have a discussion with someone whose opinions are different from your own.)
Right on. These creatures are an error in nature,should be rounded up and transported to a Funny Farm. They never assimated into society. They become sexual deviants and dishonorable citizens. Confused identity as well.
Given that 53% of the population voted for that muslime bastard and 47% did not.That means that more than half the country are suffering from a mental disorder. Think about it ,if there are 4 cars speeding down the freeway at 75mph,more than 2 of them are armed with a dangerous weapon . 4 people standing in line at grocery store, 2 = dumb as a fence post
They claim that 53% voted for the muslime. But in CO 103% were registered to vote and 98% alledgedly voted for the Butt Head muslime. Sounds very fishy to me.
Dead people voted twice, people were bused to different precincts to vote, in multiple states. The electronic voting machines voted for people you didn’t want. The election was bought.
But you are right, there are a lot of dumb as fence posts out there. (sorry fence posts)
It will happen again in November.
I am afraid of that . We have to be vigilante with our voting machines. Just found out last night that our voting machines in WY will now be electronic. Got letters to write
The choice defies logic. Anyone who chooses a behavior or lifestyle which, naturally, causes prejudice and discrimination, based on the extent to which it is unrepresentative of a majority of people, is going against the rule of nature. The idea that it is prejudice and discrimination which are wrong is fallacious. It is the behavior and lifestyle which are wrong. If a person does not want to be discriminated against, the best thing to do is be normal.
Equal justice is only possible if people behave equally according to the same legal code and moral and ethical value system. Otherwise, it is impossible. Those who refuse to recognize this fact as simply terribly misguided.
Not when you understand the underlying psychopathology. You may not see the payoff here, but there is one, for every individual who chooses bad behaviors over good ones. For most, in this case, “victim” status is rewarded these days. In a “normal” morally-right-thinking world your assessment would be correct, but we are no longer in that world, sadly. In today’s (Bizarro) world, it’s we who are viewed as “in the wrong” for experiencing, and recognizing, even voicing, or otherwise expressing, our natural (viceral), and spiritual reactions to these individuals’ behaviors. No, there cannot ever be equal justice or equality in such a world, nor will it be permitted. This is the “Animal Farm” version, where some animals are “more equal than others”!
Liberalism should be in the DSM-5 as a serious mental disorder. Unfortunately there is no cure.
Senator Steve Fitzgerald is a lawyer? No wonder he doesn’t understand. Trans people are not insane you bumpkin. Lets see, hmmmm…… how can I put this so you can understand while filtering it through all that BS you learned on college.
We humans live in a soup called the Continuum which is timeless. Energetic bleed-thoughs from one incarnation into another through the continuum affects humans on an emotional level, but yet they have no idea where their ideas come from.
Humans are inter-dimensional, meaning multi dimensional, and we are affected more than we know, because we are extant in multiple realities simultaneously. Trans people actually believe they are the “OTHER”, and it is that other in that other reality which affects them. IE: They are not insane, they are week minded and are being unduly influenced by energies they can barely comprehend.
Allowing ignorant psychiatrist to try and treat Trans people as if they are insane when they are actuality only clueless is as the blind leading the blind. Schizophrenics also suffer from that same bleed-through scenario, but because no one wants to believe what we truly are, they stumble around in a dark basement hoping against hope they they’ll come upon the light switch eventually if they just keep rubbing their hands all over the four walls.
What is insanity, is doing the same thing over and over again and hoping for a different result each time. You will come to find out eventually that psychiatrist are the ones who are Insane, not the patients.
Remember when Trump CLAIMED to lurk in Hillary’s restroom?
Remember when he promised Jenner that he could use Trump restrooms?
Is he a liberal?
SO do DEMOCRAT LIBTURD COMMIES
the duck principle. Men have a penis, woman have a vagina at birth. They also have male and female genetic markers. You have to be a mental health problem to not go with this.
So, if it quacks, swims, walks, looks, and swims like a duck , it is a duck not an elephant.
Gays and trannies have served in the military. They did well as long as they followed established rules and respected the others. Having some fairy boy skipping in formation does not cut it anymore than some ugly bull dyke in the upper rack.
This PC carp is designed to lower moral in the military and destroy the effectiveness of its fighting ability.
,6 percent are tranny pervs and 3 percent are queer? Banning them does not lower the enlistment figures but sure hurts the mission
Fitzgerald is obviously living under a rock. The changes he says are not possible have been happening for years and they’re happening every day. I can only guess that he just found out about it when he wandered out of his cave and heard a hateful report on Fox Nuze. He’s just another backwoods bigot who will be left in shit pile of history.
There is another thing that is being deliberately overlooked in this entire LGBT debate. “If” you believe in the Word of God, the Bible there is a simple explanation for these people and their deviancy. The Bible calls it “demon possession” and it was alive in Jesus’s time and it is alive and well today. A neighbor committed suicide last year. He was the head deacon in his church, had gone on several mission trips, had a beautiful wife and 2 daughters and a great job that provided well for his family. He became depressed for no reason and took his own life. At his funeral the preacher alluded to demon possession and used several passages in the Bible as a back up. The story of Jesus casting out the demons and sending them into a herd of pigs for one.
Until this nation turns back to God we are going to sink farther and farther into a point of no return if we haven’t already passed over the bar.
Welcome to the faggot Obozo’s hope and change. Lot more then you “hoped” would “change”.

It is indeed a form of mental illness and sadly these people do not get the mental health treatment they need which is why the suicide rate among those who have transitioned is so high!
What? A politician with a brain?
And guts enough to tell it like it is.
Some of these people have been caught being pedophiles on top of it when they do go in bathrooms this is a sick ideology and the ones that will get hurt are the kids I think men that stand behind this are pedophile and it’s their way of perversion of imagining of men with little girls and little boy it’s a sick administration I have an opinion that Obama pushes this so hard because he’s a pedophile just opinion
He is absolutely 100% correct . There has to be an underlying mental problem for these people . Where is the medical field on this subject ? There are people born with legitimate physical conditions that need help. But these people are perverted sick . If you can’t tell what color you are by looking in a mirror or looking in your pants to tell what you are that person is insane . Our military is being forced to put of with this non- sense . Make sure when you vote that the one you vote for is not for this . Our children’s lives depend on how we vote against this . There has already been over 2000 innocent lives destroyed by these types in NC alone . And because of this transgender pretenders there is a rise in sexual assults going on as we speak .
I agree with you 100% but there’s no one running who doesn’t support the recent insanity sweeping this country on these deviant freaks and side shows.
This guy is obviously insane himself. How would he possibly know how or what a transgender person feels……unless he’s secretly transgender himself. He can’t even tie his own shoes….much less walk a step in someone else’s.
I grew up with te belief that a “queer” was a “queer” because they wanted to be for some odd reason or another. I got curious some years back and have read some data in the internet about research into the subject and it seems that as time goes by that it is being found that it is not not choice. It is internal in the make up of the brain somehow. The below is just one article, there are more if you look. – ->>
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causes_of_transsexuality
Thank you EKMcM for taking the trouble to read beyond tabloid headlines, and having the courage to post your findings on a site like this where they are not likely to be well received. But you are right – it is not a choice. Given the rampant homophobia in this world (getting better but still very much present) who on earth would choose to be gay?
Gays lesbian homo and Transgender are all sick perverted twisted sick wackos
I totally agree with this article. Transgender has the highest suicide rate of all groups.I watched a video of a transgender man that said he studied alot on this. He now says he is a man and well always be a man.He is much happier now in life.our government is not helping them at all.It is a mental disorder that can be helped. It’s been proven.
Are you surprised? (that the suicide rate is so high among transgender people). Whether it is a mental disorder (NOT proven) or whether it is the result of a genetic mix-up or hormonal imbalance (more likely) these people have entered this world with a distinct disadvantage.
I cannot imagine what it would be like to feel that I was a man trapped in a woman’s body, or the other way round. But if it made me feel more comfortable to dress and act like a man, then that is what I would do.
Whatever the cause of this syndrome, shall we say as I do not see it as a disease, does it really affect your life if a transgender woman uses the ladies’ room. How do you think she would feel being forced to use the men’s room? Suicidal possibly?
He pees standing up – or don’t you get that? How do you think women & girls will feel with a man pretending to be a woman in their bathroom. If you’ve never experienced it, I suggest you shut up until you have.
You know for a fact that the First Lady of the United States pees standing up? WOW!!!!!
So tell us about your traumatic experience of being in the same bathroom as a man pretending to be a woman. What did he do? Don’t leave out the slightest detail. I want to vicariously live the absolute horror of it.
I will not shut up, not until I have nothing further to say to each and
every ill-informed bigot who tries to demean (not to mention libel)
others.
I replied to you naïve post because I thought you were a Kool aid drinking leftist who was too soaked in b.s. to know any better. I see from this post that what you are is a moron and probably a tranny yourself or gay or a lesbian or whatever. Just because people (& that’s the majority of people on this planet) don’t agree with sexual deviance it doesn’t mean we’re bigots or ill informed or are demeaning others. I merely told you the facts that you don’t want to accept or want covered up . Better contact a lawyer – libel is not an issue here. All of Hollywood knows Obama is a homosexual and Michael is a tranny. No way you can turn the facts around to fit your willful blindness. GO WATCH THE VIDEOS!
I have watched lots of videos in my time. Among my favorite are Harry Potter, Star Wars and Mrs Doubtfire. If I thought that any of those represented a real-life situation, I would want someone to take me to a psychiatrist at once.
You have told me – and anyone else stupid enough to be reading your fantasies – but that does not make them real.
Get help!
What can I say? I watched what I watched.no I can’t imagine feeling like this. I dont hate these people I just know some are very unhappy.I question our government . I still think there are unhappy even when they Chang there sexual parts.thus man went all the way was still unhappy.
What on earth did you watch? Do you know who made the video, why they made the video, whether this man/woman/man is what he says he is/was? And what has the government to do with it? You question the very humane and sympathetic view – you are what you are and we will try to reduce any unnecessary stress in your life. Is that what you are objecting to?
It’s very easy to search.how can changing your body help a person ? How will it change there mind? How they think?It will not take away the way they feel. It is much deeper then body parts or going to a bathroom.anorexia is people who think there to fat.so they starve themselves to death. They needed help in there thinking.how they feel about there self’s.why they feel the need ? Mental issues are very important.
I’m not saying for a moment that transgender people would not benefit from therapy to help them cope with their situation. But no sympathetic therapist is going to say that going with the assigned gender is the only option.
Seems a lot of you don’t know that not only is Obama a homosexual, but Michael, a/k/a Michelle, is a transgendered man. check it out on you tube – that Adam’s apple is there & he doesn’t always tie down his genitals
You are quite right that a lot of us don’t know these ‘facts about the President and First Lady. Could that be because they are the product of a fertile and perverted imagination? What a sad, pathetic person you are to spend your time checking out such rubbish on You Tube, and then taking pleasure in spreading the rumors.
I wonder who gave birth to Sacha and Malia?
You really have led a sheltered life. The news just doesn’t reach you – or is it you leftist leanings that prevents you from knowing the truth about what’s going on in America? Either way – here’s a history lesson for you. You may remember the Rev. Wright & his supposed Christian church – it was in the news often enough when Obama was running in 2007 and on. Wright’s ‘church’ has one main purpose – it’s to provide homosexual men with cover so they can pass for straight and get away with it. How you may ask – easy, Wright has a stable of women who (for money) will carry the child of the gay man and turn the baby over to him to raise. It’s up to him to find either a straight wife or lesbian who will go along with the ruse. And it’s usually 2 kids – that are turned over to the homosexual man. Obama and Michael a/k/a Michelle didn’t start living together until he was running for president. He is not married to Michael and Michael is not the mother of the 2 girls – they likely don’t know their real mother. GO TO YOU TUBE’S WEBSITE AND DO SEARCHES FOR MICHELLE OBAMA IS A MAN AND OBAMA IS A HOMOSEXUAL AND WRIGHT’S ‘CHURCH’ AND SEE FOR YOURSELF. BTW: It’s been in the news many times that Obama slips and calls Michael, Michael and then corrects himself. And he’s done it on camera. It’s the 21st Century – you need to catch up. Willful blindness is pathetic.
Well thank goodness my life has sheltered me from the likes of you. When news does not make its way into the dozen or so publications that I scan each day, I think that, probably, it is not news.
It took me 32 years to get to the point where I could bring myself to take out American citizenship because of the pervasive hatred and intolerance. You, barbarafromnyc, are the epitome of everything awful about this country, followed closely by the many readers who have upvoted your thoroughly nasty comments.
You Tube is NOT, I repeat NOT a reliable source of information.
I don’t hate nor am I intolerant – what I am is pro truth! 32 years eh. Well I guess you are/were an illegal. I have to wonder, are you really Elizabeth or were you given a boy’s name at birth. Sooooo sensitive to this issue. No one has to like sexual deviancy. My comments have not been nasty – they’ve met yours head on. Don’t like America – you are free to leave! Bye!!! Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
Now you are just being silly – or desperate for some kind of argument to carry on the discussion with a troll.
My husband came to the States on an H1 visa because the Museum he was hired by could not find an American with his qualifications. (For what it’s worth, his replacement is also British). We were given Green cards a year later, so no, we were never illegal.
Your comments have indeed been nasty, as nasty as any I have had the misfortune to come across. You are not arguing about how society should handle sexual deviancy (even your choice of words is nasty), you are too busy telling the world that our President and First Lady are perverts.
Johns Hopkins, once a leader in “gender reassignment” surgeries, stopped doing so, because it is NOT an healthy “treatment” for gender dysphoria, as proposed here. Their follow-up findings indicate it, in fact, exacerbates problems for the majority. Cognitive therapy, grounded in reality, contradicting the delusional beliefs, is a far more effectie therapeutic choice, but is rejected by the lobbies, because, in rebellion against their Creator, these do not WANT an actual cure! Instead, they demand all others adopt their delusional views. The anti -Yhwh God globalists support that, because in accepting those delusional views, all who do so join in the rebellion against Him, which the globalists need to bring to fruition their full Satanic agenda!
Do you include Hillary?
Trannies are a bunch of sick puppies.
These people suffer from a sexual distortion. They need therapy and mental help, not new bathrooms. obuma uses ever issue to divide us and as we know a house divided cannot stand. Let’s get these people the help they need and not used them as another tool to divide the population. this idot obuma is an extremely SICK dude and more like a rabid dog than a civilized person.
His gun control is as ignorant as the focus of gun control is to weaken the ability of real Americans to protect themselves and a way to defuse his foreign policy failures by suggesting that muslim acts of war are simply mass shootings. This idiot is suppose to be half black and he does nothing to stop all the black murders and shooting in Chicago. Not really cares about blacks or anyone unless he can use it to divide the nation. He will focus on one white black killing while chicago burns. One black kills another black every 10 hours and shoots a black every 2 hours in Chicago. Over 60 shootings this weekend. Over 360 this year and they are talking about thousands before year end.
This sexual distorted issue needs therapy and to be used to divide the nation, which is always obuma’s first choice.
You want to see the reality consider this: this asshole is 50 % black and he had done nothing to help or protect blacks and he truly believes black lives don’t matter and no lives matter. Only his agendas and power matter. If you are black this idiot is using you as he is using all of us! Time to put this idiot in prison and prosecute this freak for treason.
Why is the Leftist mind so perverted? It is truly confusing why some people want to be a sex they were not born as. And we have a mentally deranged Kenyan Queen, sitting in the Oval Office, who is just as perverted and sick, who backs this type of mental derangement, trying to get society to accept these perverts, because he and his tranny are also sick perverts! So tired of our Government, Military, and Schools being used as Social Experiments for the Mentally Deranged! Get rid of the Kenyan Queen and the Bimbo of Benghazi and lets put a True American Patriots in the Oval Office! TRUMP/TRUE AMERICAN PATRIOTS 2016!
