Transsexuals should not suffer discrimination Feminine is the superior gender, as modern women have become the most attractive people in human history owing to the well-developed cosmetics and garment industry, and their beauty would shame that of Helen of Troy.

It is no wonder many men want to transform themselves into women through surgery and drugs, even at the risk of their health.

QuoteHowever, they are discriminated against more seriously than gays or lesbians. We should give them their due respect because of their all-out pursuit of beauty.

How about you give us our due respect because we are human beings!

I'm sure the intentions of the writer were good, but I feel just a bit objectified because of my gender.

Feminine is the superior gender

... right... thanks....

Always nice to know one's inferior due to being a man...

... cause it's not sexist when a woman says one gender is superior to the other.... right?



And "transsexuals" only refers to the girls...

Always nice to know one's inferior due to being a man...

Yeah, but you get to make up for it by being able to be completely gross and disgusting on a routine basis.

... cause women can't be gross?
... cause men are all gross?

I'm a relatively neat person!
The grossest thing I do is... uhm.... er.... I eat Icelandic Slátur (kinda like half way between blood pudding and haggis.. it's delicious).

I think there still exists a general notion that females are supposed to 'cover up' their being gross, while guys still tend to find it hysterical, particularly when it's them.
