Really. The article (and topic) titles are a bit misleading... -------------------- Slarty vs. Desk • Desk vs. Slarty • Timeline of Ermarian • G4 Strategy Central "Slartucker is going to have a cow when he hears about this," Synergy said. Posts: 3560 | Registered: Wednesday, November 7 2001 08:00 |

Methinks Excalibur just saw the title, and thought it was postworthy. Honestly, this doesn't seem that controversial. I just hope everything goes smoothly for him. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. Posts: 4130 | Registered: Friday, March 26 2004 08:00 |

So he's biologically female, but identifies as a man, and got pregnant. Woohoo. The headline makes it seem a lot stranger than it is - it's not at all like those myths about Zeus bearing children that hatch from his head or his thigh. About the only ones who can remain excited about this after reading the article are the fundamentalists... Posts: 8752 | Registered: Wednesday, May 14 2003 07:00 |

Yeah, I read this in the papers about a week ago. It's a nice story really, and at least the two parents are actually in love, and not dragging the baby into the middle of a warzone. -------------------- Nikki's Nook - forget about your house of cards, and I'll deal mine.

It's "sinful". Mystic is a religious Christian of some sort, IIRC. The Flying Spaghetti Monster doesn't discriminate on the basis of gender identity, at least.

ADoS: Someone can be Christian without trying to impose ideals on other people. For instance, the lifestyle isn't something that I would personally follow, and it isn't even something that I really understand. But in this day and age (especially in the US, a country defined by freedom), acceptance of other people's ways of life is somewhat necessary. -------------------- Do not provoke the turtles.

The past 10 or so posts are primary evidence of why this thread should never have been started. Please, take note. -------------------- Synergy, et al - "I don't get it." Argon - "I'm at a loss for words..." Posts: 4114 | Registered: Monday, April 25 2005 07:00 |

I never said he was imposing his beliefs on anyone. Stating them in a rude way, perhaps, but not imposing. I give him credit for that. I don't mean any offense, Mystic, since you're generally cool. I should have kept my mouth shut, since it was rude and you can speak for yourself. I apologize. My statement about the FSM is separate and still stands, however. ARRGH! EDIT: Agreed, Salmon.

If he is so sure he's a man, why would he choose to go through the most woman thing any human can go though? I know they had their reasons and whatnot, but a true man would have said "No way I'm doing that, we're adopting." -------------------- You lose.

quote:I'm not offended by this story. I think it's amusing. I would still consider "Thomas" a woman, though. A woman that looks like a man is not therefore a man. Trying to blur the line between male and female is more a transgression of nature than anything else, I think. And calling it a "sin" the way you did implies that any "rule" against it is mere convention and prejudice. Again, I'm not offended. I just think it's unnatural. Mystic's comment about mental institutions was extreme, perhaps, but I see his reasoning. In this case, though, it seems to be working fine. -------------------- Love is the movement.

quote:It's pretty hard to logically define what is "natural" and what isn't, and IMO it's meaningless. What does it matter what people do, as long as they don't hurt or exploit themselves or anyone else? By your reasoning, it's also quite unnatural that we're all sitting in front of metal and plastic objects that shine bright lights and have lots of buttons to push. Edit: quote:A "true man"? Really? A person's gender is defined by their anatomy and/or by how they identify themselves. It most certainly is not defined by their actions. Words like "true", "right", "correct", "incorrect", "natural" and "unnatural" are completely unuseful in this area.
