Don't Get Any Ideas! Americans with Transsexaulism Don't Want "3rd Gender Status" Like Nepal Just Legislated

It was just reported that Nepal will now have a "third gender status" class for people to register in. This is a victory for those who are gender non-conforming, gender-queer, or even transgender. But what about people with transsexualism who may be tossed in that reservation against their will? When insurance and health care companies, and some governments, are getting away with denying people with transsexualism their rights by saying they are not the gender that they are, it's frustrating when some gender deconstructionist activists mirror that same rhetoric that oppresses people with transsexualism.

I doubt any 'as goes Nepal, so goes the USA argument.'  Nor do I think that Nepal is under the sway of the deconstructionist activists mirror that same rhetoric when they enroll people with transsexualism into their sociopolitcal agenda against their will.  Nope, not Nepal really.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...
