Well, I can tell some of you do not know much about these issues. Before y'all think I have flipped, rest easy. I'm still hetero with equipment and I haven't thought of doing anything different.
There is was a guy in the office next to me. A mechanical designer, early 50's with 2 kids and divorced. In January he approached me with news of his "coming out" and told me he had been in group therapy for this "situation" (IMHO, it is a disease) and would be dressing as a female in a few months.
His "significant other" is a genetic female but is also in the change process in the opposite direction (I believe its called an addadicktome LOL). Well, its an eye opener but my faith has helped me accept this soul as someone who needed help, not criticisim. Unfortunately this has made me a bit of an outcast in the office and people joke as to when I will be dressing up.
Now there are medical cases like gonadal feminization and cryptoorchidism but these "choice" changes are pure mental problems. Treating these with surgical procedures, hormone replacement and counseling is absurd with respect to the Hippocratic oath.
Let it be known, I hate the sin(disease) but not the person.
