Transgender 3rd grader to identify as female

http://boston.cbslocal.com/2012/09/25/report-transgender-3rd-grader-will-be-allowed-to-use-girls-bathroom/

 

I don't understand this transgender thing. If you have XY chromosomes, you are male, and if you have XX chromosomes, you are female.  Just because you don't agree with social norms of "male" and "female" doesn't mean that your chromosomes are changed. Is this kid even old enough to make those kind of decisions?

You can't see what the big

You can't see what the big deal would be if we didn't allow you to wear women's clothes? Or if everyone called you sir all the time? Please.

If she feels like a woman then let her act like one. "Worst" case scenario is it's just a phase and she'll be back to acting male, who the fuck cares - oh that's right, bigoted fucknuts only, and I really don't give a shit what they have to say and neither should you.

If you're gonna declare she isn't old enough to decide, then you can't with consistency allow any 3rd grader to wear anything that isn't gender neutral since anyone could end up transgender.

 If somebody calls me "sir", I would tell them that I'm not Peppermint Pattie. I can wear women's clothes or men's clothes. Either way, I am still female.

He can wear what he wants. But why the use of the female washroom, and the addressing as female? If he gets older and has a sex change, then I can see the need.

He can wear dresses, play with barbies, have tea parties, and other things normally associated with being done by females, but he is still a biological male.

Transgendered people don't have XY or XX. They have XXY or XYX. Your argument is literally invalid on every possible level.

Not neccesiarly

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transgender

 

The precise definition for transgender remains in flux, but includes:

  • "Of, relating to, or designating a person whose identity does not conform unambiguously to conventional notions of male or female gender roles, but combines or moves between these."[2]
  • "People who were assigned a sex, usually at birth and based on their genitals, but who feel that this is a false or incomplete description of themselves."[3]
  • "Non-identification with, or non-presentation as, the sex (and assumed gender) one was assigned at birth."[4]

"Not neccesiarly" In any

"Not neccesiarly"

In any and all cases involving children, you can be damned sure it IS necessarily.

 I could see how parents of the other girls could be upset about this, it is probably only a matter of time before there is some sort of incident due to one of these decisions. Puberty hits whether you are transgendered or not. I see no reason she can't use the boys bathroom.

If, if a white man puts his arm around me voluntarily, that's brotherhood. But if you - if you hold a gun on him and make him embrace me and pretend to be friendly or brotherly toward me, then that's not brotherhood, that's hypocrisy.- Malcolm X

Do we need separate bathrooms for homosexuals too then?

Gender isn't sex. One is

Gender isn't sex. One is biological and the other is cultural and social. The OP seems to be conflating those and confusing them with sexual orientation at the same time. Nice hat trick.

 It's already been done.  Such bathrooms exist within every gay bar or social establishment that caters primarily ( if not exclusively ) to homosexuals.

   Because gay men and women have to piss, too ?

 

( If you're trying to embarrass me I don't give a shit.  I've been in gay bars.  I used to go out with a female bisexual, we went to a gay club, she wouldn't dance with me because her dyke friends were there, so I danced with the gay guy that went with us.  I'm so ashamed. )
