What makes you misguided folks think its going to work on trans people? 

One of the things that pisses me and other transpeople off is this trend, whether it's coming from Kenneth Zucker and other like minded educated fools, the Malaysian government with their forced masculinization camps , transphobic monks in Thailand setting up an ex trans monastery, or fundies urging us to turn away from our 'lifestyle' (sarcasm meter on maximum when I say that word) and pray the girl away, is cis people thinking that you can 'change' us.

Hasn't anything to do with whether it works or not. It's just that they think we don't have enough support in the general population to stop them from doing it, like gay people.

Don't forget the money. Sweet, lovely money.  :icon_dribble:

People tend to forget that a lot of the people hurting us are just in it for the money.
