That's great advice.
I'll have to remember to not ask all of my transgender friends and acquaintances which parts they still have.
I should have definitely been born in the 19th century, because I'm scared of this modern world I live in today.

I'd say severely altering your body is caused by some type of distress
I agree in general that severe body alterations should be done with extreme caution and after extensive thought and discussions with the individual's team of medical professionals (primary care, psychologist, psychiatrist, endocrinologist, surgeon, etc).

these are the people that I have a problem with
I have tourettes, its a disorder, I don't get triggered if someone says that I have a disorder

Also, I am now identifying as a poor person. Regardless of what my actual income is, I identify as a person with 7 children and I make less than 20,000 a year so I'd appreciate some tax breaks.
What do we call this identity? I've been feeling this way for a while.

But Gay marriage hurts nobody.
i don't recall saying it does. to be clear, i am not offended by gayness and i don't particularly care if gay folks marry. i have a problem when people put a calico dress on a pig and call it Florence, and then demand that i acknowledge that Florence is a human because she identifies as such.

Many transgender people do not experience their gender as distressing or disabling

Here's my point, boss. When I see that person from the article, I'm gonna go out on a limb and take a massive gamble.....by assuming they are female. Call me ignorant if you will. Now, this person doesn't agree with that. They're either a complete idiot, or being intellectually dishonest. Because, she is the correct word to use.
Surely you can agree with this, no? If dogs learn to talk, and are as ridiculous as these people, I won't like them either. I don't give a shite what someone identifies as it is of likes or fricks. But people this ridiculous can kiss my arse.

Maybe it's more accurately called an "abnormality" since it's certainly a deviation from what's normal.
It's not just a deviation from "normal". It's a deviation from evolution, from biology and from science. Hence, it's a mental disorder.

What do you want to bet nobody would say shite to her about it if she didn't bring it up first?
I'm pretty sure nobody gives a rat's arse what this special lil snowflake "identifies" as. It is just another way for snowflake to proclaim their snowflake status and to entitle them to be offended when they are not addressed as their gender of the day.
Lots of these snowflakes claim to be "gender fluid" meaning they change their minds on what sex/gender/orientation they are on a day by day basis.
I grew up among many LGBT people and they think this current crop of LGBT BSers are ridiculous and that these whiny arse dumb@zzes ought to be ashamed of themselves because they are setting back the LGBT community in a bad situation with their entitled, assholey, aggressive and bullying behavior.

The idea of "non binary gender" or "gender queer" or whatever gives me a head ache. The best sense that I can make of it is that these people have an issue with the social expectations of the gender that they were born into, so they make up a gender rather than alter their personal expectations of the gender that they are.

A form of Delusional Disorder. Somatic delusions perhaps.
