Society Commentary A Former Transgender Person’s Take on Obama’s Bathroom Directive

Guest Post by Walt Heyer

President Barack Obama, the titular head of the LGBT movement, has added to the firestorm of confusion, misunderstanding, and fury surrounding the transgender bathroom debate by threatening schools with loss of federal funding unless they allow students to join the sex-segregated restroom, locker room, and sports teams of their chosen gender, without regard to biological reality.

His action comes after weeks of protests against the state of North Carolina for its so-called anti-LGBT bathroom bill.

As someone who underwent surgery from male to female and lived as a female for eight years before returning to living as a man, I know firsthand what it’s like to be a transgender person—and how misguided it is to think one can change gender through hormones and surgery.

And I know that theNorth Carolina bill and others like it are not anti-LGBT.

L” is for lesbian. The bill is not anti-lesbian because lesbians have no desire to enter a stinky men’s restroom. Lesbians will use the women’s room without a second thought. So the law is not anti-L.

G” is for gay. Gay men have no interest in using women’s bathrooms. So the law is not anti-G.

B” is for bi-sexual. The “B” in the LGBT have never been confused about their gender. Theirs is also a sexual preference only that doesn’t affect choice of restroom or locker room.

T” is for transgender. The “T” identifies a person who has undergone hormone therapy and gender reassignment surgery, and legally changes the gender marker on his or her birth certificate.

The North Carolina law is not anti-T because the law clearly states that the appropriate restroom is the one that corresponds to the gender stated on the birth certificate. Therefore, a transgender person with a birth certificate that reads “female” uses the female restroom, even if the gender noted at birth was male.

So, you see, the law is not anti-LGBT. What then is all the uproar about?

What has arisen is a new breed emerging among young people that falls outside the purview of the LGBT: the gender nonconformists.

Gender nonconformists, who constitute a miniscule fraction of society, want to be allowed to designate gender on a fluid basis, based on their feelings at the moment.

I call this group “gender defiant” because they protest against the definition of fixed gender identities of male and female. The gender defiant individuals are not like traditional transgender or transsexual persons who struggle with gender dysphoria and want hormone therapy, hormone blockers, and eventually, reassignment surgery. The gender defiant group doesn’t want to conform, comply, or identify with traditional gender norms of male and female. They want to have gender fluidity, flowing freely from one gender to another, by the hour or day, as they feel like it.

Under the cover of the LGBT, the anti-gender faction and its supporters are using the North Carolina bathroom bill to light a fuse to blow up factual gender definitions.

Obama is championing the insanity of eliminating the traditional definition of gender. He does not grasp the biological fact that genders are not fluid, but fixed: male and female.

Using the power of his position to influence the elimination of gender, overruling science, genetics, and biblical beliefs, is Obama’s display of political power.

One fact will remain, no matter how deep in the tank Obama goes for the gender nonconformists, genetics and God’s design of male and female, no matter how repugnant that is to some, cannot be changed. Biological gender remains fixed no matter how many cross-gender hormones are taken or cosmetic surgeries are performed. No law can change the genetic and biblical truth of God’s design. Using financial blackmail to achieve the elimination of gender will become Obama’s ugly legacy.

The world is falling apart, morally, environmentally, socially, and of course economically. Yet this is the “progress” of the 21st century? Soil is dying, people don’t know how to do anything anymore in terms of real world skills, old knowledge is no longer being passed down to future generations. One major blip of the sun or some or perhaps just the tipping point of droughts, desertification, the lack of industrial phosphorous next decade in combination with muzzie crazies taking over larger and larger portions of the globe…and we have the progressives focusing on these things? It’s a bad joke no real problems being dealt with, but rather new “issues” being created by the day. Idiocy. Drooling phone staring zombies against gender what a mighty battle.

We need to start calling the deviants, the perverts and the impersonators what they are instead of letting them control the language (thereby controlling the nature of the discussion) and referring them as something they are not.

Something like referring to a female impersonator as “she” instead of “he” which is what he really is.

Translation: I cut my junk off and had aftermarket boobs installed, but then had a serious case of Buyer’s Remorse when nobody took interest in me. Can’t get laid because every real “guy” runs screaming from me and is now in need of therapy. I can’t get my original equipment reinstalled coz they threw it away, so I’m venting my spleen here on the web…

I call this group “gender defiant” because they protest against the definition of fixed gender identities of male and female.

They want to have gender fluidity, flowing freely from one gender to another, by the hour or day, as they feel like it.

Translation: I call this group “Gender defiant” because calling them what they are: Little children in adult bodies, probably very likely mentally ill and throwing a tantrum – isn’t “politically correct”, which is why I use carefully-neutral terms like “individuals” and “persons”. Even though my post is against the whole gender-identity bathroom freak-show, I am still enough of a fucking douche canoe that I cannot help but use these nauseatingly PC terms…

In closing, it’s all O-Hole’s fault.

How do y’all think I did?

I think I pretty much nailed it.

” ………. now that is ignorance that I wouldn’t even try to disagree with.”.

It’s worse than foolish. Debating these fucking retards only lends their arguments legitimacy, which I refuse to do. Only thing they deserve is derisive laughter. And mocking. And called what they are: Mentally ill freak shows…

Billy- You have the answer to this putrid display of theater.

Going forward, we will simply refer to this as “Mentally ill freak shows”. That should put the correct spin on this movement and hopefully it will leave as it came. It would be great if all here and on other sites will participate in using that description (Make It So Number One).

Where is the compassion and love that Jesus so eloquently spoke to?

We admit they are mentally ill/hurting, but then demand they be called out and derided?

How will that help ANY of these hurting, confused, chemically poisoned, fellow humans?

And Judas, this “problem” is as simple as the freaking marriage “problem,” make bathrooms where gender isn’t a freaking issue.

I go to a gas station and there is ONE bathroom. Either sex can use it.

We should build new buildings, or revamp older if wanted, with this in mind. Problem solved.

As for your 11 year old going into the woman’s room with a tranvestite, where the freak are YOU in this scenario?

And in schools, come the hell on ladies, do any of you remember junior high gym locker rooms/showers? What he/she CHILD would want to parade naked through a female locker room? I just can’t believe this is a real issue in the real world.

This is, yet again, a political issue being used to create fear, hatred and division.

Meanwhile, we are still being poisoned, we are still being stolen from and we are still screwed 100 ways from Sunday.

Nah, don’t worry about none of that, lets worry about a less than 2 percent of the population – if that – and freak out.

People make me laugh, and cry, but more and more, laugh.

Not fucking here.

I claim to be a Christian. Just not a very good one.

And my “compassion” walked the fuck off about the same time as these freak show retards started agitating for shit and demanding that the REST OF THE UNIVERSE conform to them, rather than the other way around…

Sooo, yeah. They can just fuck right off.

We admit they are mentally ill/hurting, but then demand they be called out and derided?

When they insist that THE REST OF THE UNIVERSE play along with their insanity – and for some damn reason, a good many people do just that – I’m sorry, but I refuse to engage in that kind of fuckery.

Insist that I and the rest of humanity (minus the mentally ill freak shows) play along with, aid and abet your faggotry? Eh, no. Prepare to be derided, mocked, ridiculed and flamed out of existence…

I have compassion. Just not for these retards. If they were committed and in a mental ward, wrapped up in a straight jacket? Yeah. That’s a tough draw.

But carrying signs and being an agitating fuckstick, insisting the rest of the universe play along? Doesn’t exactly encourage me to engage Muh Feels… Nope.

How will that help ANY of these hurting, confused, chemically poisoned, fellow humans?

I’m not interested in HELPING THEM.

I am interesting in HELPING THE REST OF US WHO HAVE TO PUT UP WITH THEIR RETARDED ASSES.

Helping THEM is the responsibility of a doctor or some other mental health professional – not my responsibility. And what, exactly, am I supposed to do to “help” them anways? Stick my boot in their ass? Tell them to sack up (Well, the ones that still have a sack left, that is) and knock off the fuckery and faggotry?

If they shut the fuck up about the whole thing, I’d be a lot more willing to hear their side of the story. Being an irritating fapstain is a surefire way to piss me off and murder any of Muh Feels I might have had for them…

Greetings,

Here is what I do not understand about the recent demands that schools follow this path or risk losing federal money. Since people under the age of 18 can not smoke (not here in California), drink, vote or make their medical decisions, how is it possible that they can legally define their ever fluid minute by minute gender identity? How is that possible? You can’t have it both ways. How can you tell someone that they cant go have a beer or vote but, instead, stand naked in the girl’s shower room?

I think everyone has lost their minds.

TE,

Jesus never taught tolerance of sin, and much less the promotion of it.

An example of the love Jesus taught and how he taught it: Matthew 23:33 “”You snakes! You brood of vipers! How will you escape being condemned to hell?”

Taken either in or out of context, this is Jesus standing firmly against sin, not making excuses for it.

The next stop on this train to hell is to push the pederass lifestyle. Will you show them love as they ask you to condone sex with children? Do you want Merika to accept any and all deviants no matter how sick and demented ? Is there a line in the sand for you?

Anonymous, wasn’t he speaking of the Pharisees? You know, the LEADERS of the Church?

He, many, many, times, preached against JUDGEMENT. Why don’t you morality and societal norm cops ever quote those phrases?

I’m done with that, you either get it, or you don’t. You either love to hate, hate to love, or realize that ALL of us, every single one, those of the light, those of the dark, those that do bad things, those that do good things, those that praise nothing, those that praise their preferred flavor, ALL of us are God’s creations and equally loved and worthy of it no matter what we look like, how we dress, what we smoke, what we curse, whatever.

God’s Universal Law states you reap what you sow. Hundreds, if not thousands, of those specially enlightened, from Buddha, to Gandhi, to Jesus, to Einstein, have said just as much.

You are sowing the seeds of separation, hatred, bigotry, and ugliness. Sadly, as I look around, those like you, on both sides, are getting exactly what they are sowing. It makes me so sad.

It is a choice to spread seeds of acceptance – for all – and love. It isn’t some thing that magically rains down on you very often. Happiness, and the want of a life of peace and harmony, is something we have to STRIVE for. And fight against the need to impose our will, view of the world, on others.

I refuse to buy into the thinking that your way is the only way. I’m sick of that world of judgement and hatred and constantly telling everyone how to live, what to think, how to behave.

Your side is just as damn guilty as “their” side.

Peace brother. Like I said, I’m done. You either get it, or don’t. Yet.

@Bea, you good little Statist you.

Instead of addressing the PROBLEM, which is GOVERNMENT meddling, you are addressing the tiny little contingency of people and wish to condemn, affront and ridicule them.

What good does that do? Have YOU ever responded positively to someone attacking you? I surely haven’t.

You hurt their feelings, rile up their emotions and then attack back with equal or greater veracity.

Tell me Bea, what part of that stopped the gravy train that just propped up to enforce these laws, rules, problems and solutions?

The problem isn’t the born that way/mentally damaged (depending on your point of view), the PROBLEM is the g*damn government getting involved.

Which is what started the WHOLE thing. It wasn’t an issue until YOUR side demanded it become one.

Again, what a good little Statist and a reminder as to why I have avoided the vast majority of topics and comments.

Peace to you bud.

Hypocrite that you are.

It’s not like I’m hunting them down with a big butterfly net and forcing them to undergo torture.

THEY got out their on their own, on MY TV, in MY face and insist their asshattery be foisted upon everyone else, including my son.

So solly, but fuck that shit. They don’t want to be “judged” by the rest of us? Then maybe they should have thought of that shit before they started making their shitty signs and agitating on live TV…

And as far as you Preaching the Word – my relationship between the Almighty and me is just that – MINE. I don’t need YOU “passing judgement” on me because you think we’re being big old meanies to those poor confused misguided souls because of YOUR interpretation of the bible…

You’re the worst sort of “Christian” – the kind who says “Don’t pass judgement” – then judges us yourself.

Normal people should agree to give these people a dollar everytime they see them or hear them proclaim their “gender fluidity”, and then be sure to tell them “Grandpa told me stories about you circus attractions, here’s your payment for providing the show.”

TE,

You need to actually read the bible.

You sound like someone that has been deceived by others with agendas into believing something that is not in it.

Jesus did not speak against judgment, he forgave sins to the repentant and told them to John 8:11 “She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.”

That is forgiveness to the repentant of their sins with the admonition not to sin any more, not a dismissal of judgment for those that do not repent and certainly not claiming that sin is of no consequence and you will not be judged for it.

Aiding someone to follow the path of judgment and condemnation to hell is not a loving thing, Jesus never did or advocated this.

So a fraction of a percent of the population can’t be inconvenienced to use a rest room or shower room of his or her given sex, but the 99+ % CAN be inconvenienced by being forced into private rooms with these people? A lot of us are sick of having every deviancy known to man shoved down our throat.

And how are these people identified? Do they wear a plaque or something? How can they be distinguished from some run of the mill kid that just wants to strut his stuff in front of a bunch of naked high school girls?

This whole debate is a load of bullshit created to distract the millions of confused people walking the streets out there. I agree with others here, and I, generally speaking, don’t care about this whole made up issue. The exception comes for the fact that they are hellbent on convincing everyone that this is “normal” and not that these people are simply mentally ill. That, and the consequent indoctrination of children, I do resent.

I lived in CA for 15 years and it happened occasionally the a T person would use the women restroom when dressed at a female. Some women would say they just wanted them to use the other restroom, CA is liberal after all. But there was little complaint beyond that. Now Obama has said anyone who identifies as female can. You don’t even need to dress as a female. This opens the door to cranks to take advantage of the immunity they now have. Obama should have just let it go as it was. But no, he wants government force behind it now. My experience with T people is they just want to be left alone and blend in. Obama has inflamed the issue.

All of this shit is about the destruction of our AMERICAN culture. They want you to be accepting of this shit because it’s going to get worse……much worse. It’s got nothing to do with love or hate though they couch it in those terms. It’s about retraining people to accept the destruction of their borders, language and culture. You appear to be a straight A student.

I generally agree with most of what you have to say and as I said earlier, I’m gad to see you back but you sound like you’ve been fully indoctrinated on this one.
