Wow. One of the responses here was incredibly ignorant. Interesting juxtaposition. Liberal on sexuality but a conservative stance on muslims?
I have to say that the question asks the wrong question. It suggests that Islam and transsexuals are totally impossible together and somehow the other big 3 religions say its all good. That's untrue. The COUNTRIES in which islam is predominant haven't yet become as liberal as Europe and America (and america seems to be regressing). I don't think it's an issue of religion bc im sure it would be punishable by death if the christian conservatives could have their way and form an entirely christian country with strict christian laws.
I'm muslim but not practicing much. Armenian and family scattered around Iran, turkey, Afghanistan and whatever name iraq is going to have once its 10 pieces. I don't think I really need to reconcile islam with transsexuality bc its not a problem for me. I'm utterly turned off by men (outside of their company). The transsexual women and genetic women i'm attracted to are usually the top of the pile so i'm just interested in absolute feminine beauty. Thats why i wouldnt live in a conservative muslim country, just like i wouldnt live in a conservative part of america or with jewish settlers in hebron.
People are the same everywhere, despite their religion. For example, there are literally thousands of muslim pornstars, particularly in california and europe and france (though the ones in america often say they're spanish sometimes and bangladeshi other times) and there are plenty of muslim transsexuals (probably liberal just like there are probably no hardcore conservative christian transsexuals) in london. My favorite is kahylla mohammed from brazil who is hands down one of the most feminine beauties in the world. So yeah, for me it's not a problem bc im liberal. Just like it's not a problem for you if you're a christian liberal.

BTW, which countries have the most transsexuals? Thailand which is mostly buddhist. Next on the list? Iran with 20,000 and people say up to 150,000. Yup interesting. You're going to like the reason. The ayatollah, like lots of guys who reach the top of the heap in their religious professions (lots of pastors and teg haggert for example), was apparently just a regular guy. He made up the laws which said that homosexuality for men is punishable by death for the first infraction. But get this, if women did it, they would need to get caught 3 times for it to be death worthy. And transsexuals? LEGAL. lol. These things almost humanize muslims as regular people though so youll never hear about it in american news.

And moderators do nothing against that, of course... sick..
