To be honest I wasn't sure if I should post this, I may get into trouble. But it's news, right?

Sigh. Even in an article about someone saying "I am a woman" they can't figure out that you shouldn't use male pronouns against someone's stated gender identity.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices. |

If that's what she wants then it is really no big deal. It's not anything that is that uncommon, and I've taken care of quite a few veterans that identify with the other gender and have undergone hormone treatment and/or surgery.

This one looks satisfactory -

No issues with the topic, but for neatness' sake lets' continue any discussion in the existing thread related to this case.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.
