"You are adamant that you are a special gender, That is why some of you have spent considerable money on special operations. Every year you all look very different. Blonde hair, glossy lipstick sporting Gucci handbags and us men continue to be taken in by your looks. It is only your thick muscular carves, bulked up after years of playing rugby, that give you away. But it is not your will that you are the way you are. You are just another shining example of the glorious miracles and creations of our Lord. I applaud you on your charity work in our communities and may you continue to pursue it. I also applaud you on your pursuit of your human rights and I encourage you to be vocal on any issue that touches, encroaches on your rights."

- Samoan Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegao speaking to Fa'afafine, biological males who have a strong feminine gender orientation in Samoan culture.

He probably stole that speech from a Republican.
When you judge others, you do not define them, you define yourself.
