Is it just me who thinks this is a ridiculous statement for a science teacher to make?
Surely a science teacher can tell the difference between natural transsexualism in animals - where their physiology has evolved to be as such - and intersex humans who have been born with chromosomal abnormalities!? How are the two comparable when one is a deviance from normative human biology (essentially a birth defect, although I know that word has stigma attached to it, I do not mean it to be derogatory), and the other is a completely natural transformation of sex for that species? How is this person a science teacher?
To me, this is like saying it's perfectly normal for a human to be born blind because HEY, moles are blind!! But the key difference is moles have evolved to be blind, humans have not - to be blind in a human is to have a disability, whereas to be blind in a mole is to simply be a mole.
Apples and oranges...
Sorry for the rant but I've just been called 'stupid' and 'ignorant' for my above response to this image; apparently other people cannot see a difference between natural transsexualism and having an intersex condition. Not only that but this was all to back up the transgender movement - but yet again there's a world of difference between a natural sex transformation and a surgical one!?
Be warned, it gets worse...
What really frustrated me in this exchange was how when I mentioned that no human can literally change their sex, I got "As we speak scientists are developing artifical uterusses and eggs, and Pseudo-sperm produced from bone marrow". Now, I don't even have to look into whether those arguments are even valid to know that ARTIFICIAL and PSEUDO = NOT REAL.
I've even heard a transgendered woman claiming that as she can have sex with her neo-vagina, then it is a functioning vagina. No, it's a surgical wound that can be penetrated, it is not even a vagina - let alone a 'functioning' one. If you have to dilate your "vagina" just so the skin won't sew itself back together then how is it a real vagina? Ludicrous, I honestly cannot believe it has come to this.
Am I losing my damn mind?
