Reader Melissa notes:

    Growing up, I always wondered if 1 in 30,000 people were male to female transsexuals, why is their so much organized resistance to this?

    - Economic cost would be minimal.
    - Transsexuals with numbers that low could not possibly be made into credible scapegoats for any of the world's problems.
    - Half the population is male and half is female; so what difference does it make if a person goes from one to another?
    - People are not capable of psychologically coping with transitioning for purposes other than gender disorder, so no need to worry about fallen patriarchy.

    It hit me a few years ago. There is no sane reason for organized hatred, but there is a sensible reason for organized sexual exploitation.

Other than the fact that "1 in 30,000" is a totally bogus number?

As long as someone is different, there will always be hatred.

I think that it stems from a primal territorial instinct.  As humans, we try to learn to get over it.  If we could dispense with some of these religious beliefs, we could make huge leaps forward.  But perhaps these are only the excuses.  The hatred may still remain.
