Ron on trannies and other stuff.
Must be the weather. Lotta rain last nite. Streets clean . . . air clean . . . wind outta the west . . . clouds scurryin past the mull foon like they’re late for a dentist’s appointment or somethin.
ExHILaratin out there walkin around in the gusts. Brought to mind several scenarios of cleanin up society the way Ma Nature cleaned up the neighborhood while I wuz asleep.
Not sure exactly why, but by the time we got back to the house I’d settled on transgenderism as the focus for my daily blurb. Pro’bly an unpopular attitude, but here ’tis:
~~~~
Now, first of all, science is pretty clear on the issue of transgenderism: if your DNA shows two X chromosomes, you’re a female; if it shows one X and one Y, you’re male.
That doesn’t mean, of course, that some women aren’t by attitude and behavior more aggressive and mannish than others, or that some men aren’t more dainty and feminine than most others.
But basically there is no biological reason for a female to consider herself a male or for a male to consider himself female. When that happens, it’s psychological, not physiological.
Identifying as something other than the gender fixed by the DNA is based on belief, on attitude, on desire, on environment much more than on chromosomes, attitude more than anatomy. And confusing children about their sexual identity is child abuse.
Does nature occasionally produce something out of the ordinary? Sure. Turtles with two heads, albino squirrels, children with progeria, animals without sight or hearing or limbs, the occasional Einstein or Tesla.
When a factory cranks out billions of units, once in a while one comes out flawed. A cracked engine block. A warped skillet handle. A leaky jar lid. A headless nail. A malformed shoe. A double-stamped coin.
Quality control catches most of those before they get to the packaging and shipping department, so they don’t make it to the general public. A few get through, of course, perhaps one in thousands.
Are there people today who were born with missing or surplus or confusing genitalia? Sure . . . just as there are people born with extra toes or missing hands, or dwarfs, or giants, or albinos.
BUT – the total number of dwarfs in the US (depending upon whose figures you believe) is roughly one in 20,000 or so, and the number of people with extra toes is maybe one in 10,000.
As to transgenderism, most sources you’ll read show that well under one percent of humans have mixed or missing or dysfunctional genitalia. Various studies throughout the world tend to fix the number at around .2%.
However, considerably more respondents today, well over 1 in a hundred, iDENTIfy as transgender, and as many as 3% report being uncertain about their gender identity.
O.K. I realize that until late last century, most women didn’t want to be seen as mannish, and most men didn’t like to be viewed as “sissies.” Obviously, then, responses to survey questions on gender tended to be a bit misleading or skewed.
With transgenderism “coming out” as it were and celebrities spotlighting it as a trend, or fad, it seems there’s a lot of “Me-too”ism going on with young people doing what young people have always done, buck tradition and do something outrageous for attention.
In other words, the number of people with unusual genitalia is probably much larger than it was thought to be 50 years ago, but it’s still small (under one percent) and there are more wannabes than true transgenders, more men who ARE pussies than there are men WITH pussies.
My generation was, and is, aware of anomalies in anatomy and biology. We’ve known about Downs and dwarfs and polydactyls and figured if they didn’t make a big deal out of it, we wouldn’t either.
If I saw a tiny woman trying to get something from the top shelf in a grocery store, I’d help her, and if I saw a Downs kid pondering how to get across a busy street, I’d accompany him . . . but not because she or he demanded my attention, my compassion, my service. It’s just what well-raised, well-mannered, well-educated people do.
If girls want to live with other girls, most people don’t think anything of it. If guys prefer to live with other guys, most people don’t much care. If guys want to live with girls, nobody raises an eyebrow. If girls want to live with guys, even LOTS of guys, that’s their affair.
But there’s absolutely no logic in mandating that women MUST be allowed to play in the NBA, or on the PGA tour, or that men should be allowed to play in the WNBA or the LPGA.
That makes no more sense than saying that less than one percent of the population (Muslims) should dictate what food we should eat, what clothes we should wear, what words we cannot use, what pictures we cannot draw.
Same with trannies, gays, lebians, and bis. Together they make up what . . . maybe 4% of the total population? Why should they appear on TV more often than military heroes or first responders or historians or economists? Why so many gays, lesbians, and bis in our sitcoms?
A recent Gallup poll shows that Americans apparently believe that 25% of the population is either gay or lesbian or trannie. Amazing statistic, especially in light of the fallback position of TV network execs who say that sex and violence have absolutely no effect on audience behavior.
LGBTQXYZwhatever is a fad, the Rubik’s cube of the 3rd millennium teens, a, pet rock, a kale diet which would go away with Bruce Jenner’s credibility and Chaz Bono’s popularity if not for TV and political correctness.
Lopping off die Schvantz and wearing a miniskirt doesn’t make a man a woman any more than tats and a strap-on make a girl a guy. You wanna do that? Your choice. Just don’t do it in my face . . . or on my TV. Do it someplace where I don’t even have to hear about it if I don’t want to.
I liked it a helluva lot better the way things worked for several thousand years, before we all got so goddam “woke” that we don’t know who the F— we really are. I’m just not sure this brave new world of tolerance and multiculturalism will be a better one than what I grew up in, especially when Allah finally kicks Yahweh out and murdifies all the gays, lesbians, bis, and trannies.
And to add sumpin’ to what Ron just wrote, the gays and trannies support Moslems. Must be a death wish on their part.
