Yes, "transgenders" rank up there with the validity of the Unicorn. No offense to Unicorns. Science has never, repeat NEVER found any signs of female chromosome DNA or any other hormone, enzyme, or electrolytes in the "transgendered" male. So you flakes rely heavily upon the hard-hitting science of; "It's all in your mind as to what gender you are," theory that you pulled out of your ass.

Search "Transsexual gene link identified" on the BBC from October 26, 2008.

That was only the first one that popped up. It is still an understudied subject.

Death2evil says: "Why you care whether someone's manhood or womanhood comes from their gonads or their prescriptions is beyond me." ....Because one is NATURAL and the other ISN'T. Class dismissed.

@lizard944

Following that same line of logic we could say that all children born by artificial insemination are not natural. So then do you not count them as children?

I would hate to be the one to explain to them that they don't exist.

Yay, extreme absolutism!

They call themselves Honest Girl Scouts . com yet there argument is based on the misconception that transexuals are somehow threatening. We're talking about a 7-year-old child; how threatening could she be?

@sbflash311

I took just a peek at that website and I am frightened by the potential morass of a debate with anyone from there. Really they are fighting multiple issues of their own perception but the site has a very fundamentalist "learn these facts, be loud, and don't listen to anyone else" look to it. (Maybe facts is too strong of a word)

When they are incapable of listening they are not usually worth listening to.

@Travel4Whit There shouldn't even BE artificial insemination, if you can't get a kid, fuck you and adopt one, jeez..

2nd thing: You're an asshole for supporting this, how can one ever support this? Oh yeah i forgot, you're an American, what KIND of fucked up parents transgender their kids anyways? They should be killed on the field..

The world is so fucked up today, wish the world would go back in the 1920's, being a fagg at least wasn't acceptable back then.

@mammarose..If your organization is going to have an open door policy, then you cannot choose your members. The GS will be forced to accept heterosexual young men. This is not the environment the GS founders had intended. The GLBT crowd are on their re-education camp training missions trying to reprogram our children Khmer Rouge style.

@lizard944 Girl Scouts are divided by age. There is no chance the 14 or 15 year old boy is going to be in the same group as the 7 year old. Frankly, for years when my now grown children were little they had slumber parties both at the same time all in one room, male and female. One of their little friends was gay and he was jsut as welcome as anyone else. The key is supervision of children. Children are chldren.

I completely love how radical religious fruit cakes argue against science but when it comes to something that imposes on their values, they're all for it lol.

[lizard944]

@sbflash311 Because seven year old little boys go through puberty and become 14 and 15 y/o boys who would still have to be admitted into the Girl Scouts. Would you want some flake of that age, who can't even identify what sex they are, around your seven y/o daughter?

@LambdaKore "in any way you care to define" - so someone's mind doesn't matter? Yes, you presuming to define someone else instead of listening to them and trusting them that their experience is REAL is extremely impolite. Trans people and gender queer people exist in many different cultures and periods of history, and slowly science is catching up to give an explanation. Meanwhile, you can either choose to respect others or dismiss their lives and make assumptions.

[sinmantyx]

@lizard944 What "science" have you been reading? Where did you get that idea?

[HgnCommerce]

@Coldchill83 I strongly agree with you. And I will also add that people who argue that human sexuality was "done by god to be Female XX and Male XY" are terribly wrong. These guys forget that not every human in this planet was born XX or XY. There are people who are XXX, XXY, XYY, X0 and so on. This is called aneuploidy and makes us a little more diverse. Not even talking about the fenotipic variations. (Hermaphroditism induced in the womb). So... why bother so much about transgender people?

[Coldchill83]

Good. Another educated and humane individual. How can people be so COLD and full of crap to say a person is not free to be themself just because of their genetics?

"Nope, he was born a male. Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope. Science is absolute, I have no moral standing. Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope."

It makes me sick to know individuals along this method of thinking still draw breath. God forbid THEY be the ones repressed into being someone they're not.

F*** the sytem. They're GIRLS.
