[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 302729, member: 265"] Just a few things more. It is perfectly possible - indeed, it isn't that uncommon - to be phenotypical female or male and genetically male or female. This is why we have sexual reassignment surgery for children, again fairly common. A birth certificate in such situations is by no means "scientific"; it is simply a statement by the doctors at the time of their guess about the child. Further, there is nothing "unscientific" about mental states, especially when it comes to gender issues. You ask people, they tell you, then you check on behavioral history. It's akin to any mental state that predicts behavior, including heterosexuality. Finally, this isn't a "gender disorder"; the conditions involved in transgender persons are more complicated then we like to think, but they are not indicative of any kind of mental disorder, unless the person involved has been persecuted into one. That happens. All of this entire brouhaha is the result of an overreach by the North Carolina legislature and is largely ideological in nature. If they had left Charlotte's original ordinance alone, then this would have been a tempest in a teapot. The only result has been $1B or so of lost business to NC and a return of the championship games to Tobacco Road in future. What a waste of public resources! [/QUOTE]
