The Transexual Phenomenon

[bluesoul]

do you suppose maybe there is a quantum singularity somewhere in the universe causing the transsexual phenomenon?

As time passes more things that are taboo become accepted. Lady Gaga would not be possible when i was a kid. I think in next 10 yrs we will see real ts on tv and in movies with more signifigant parts.

Shout out to Yasmin Lee.

I've often thought of this myself and tried to look at the following perspectives asking questions.

1. Is it that minds are so young they are being influenced by the availability of porn on the internet?

2. Maybe there is something in the food that is causing this?

3. People feel freedom to be who they are in this day and age?

4. Is this nature and life creating a new species so to speak?

Genetically modified food products + synthetic beer + food supplements and remedies stimulating the hormonal disfunction + lack of traditional gender ideology of society ... All things are simple.

I live in Thailand and I've talked to a fair number of Thai ladyboys and all of them said that they have always felt that they were girls.

i watched a sci-fi film that was a rip off mad max. it purported that in the future, biological women are very rare (in fact, mythical) and thus the population is dwindling. coincidentally, there are also a lot more transsexuals (though they are never called as such in the film)

the cause is explained as the result of nuclear war

I think it's partly social acceptance, but I also think society just works better when the women outnumber the men. That's always been the case and still is, but the gap has been closing. There aren't as many wars now, we don't need to hunt for food anymore, and improved technology means that (traditionally male) workers are much less likely to get killed on the job.

The solution seems to be that large numbers of men will become women, and I'm all for it. I'd become a woman myself if it weren't so expensive, and I had more of an assurance that I'd be passable.

I think through whole history there was the same ration of transsexuals in population, but in smaller population is smaller number of them. In ancient times it was said they were called by goddess and were mostly priestesses. In mid ages they were hiden because of fear, so it looks like they don't exist, but now we became more aware of them, specially through media and pornography.

With capabilities of brain scanning and fact, that they are born with brain and body of different genders, could maybe make their acceptance in society easier and that they will not be seen as mentally ill, but as normal person with special need because of birth "mistake" from their childhood.
