A recent headline tells us this: The next horizon event for the Civil Rights Movement is the case for transgender acceptance. If so, now is the time to have "the talk."

<<<   Caroline Cossey is a British actress best known for her role as a Bond girl in the movie For Your Eyes Only. (Time & Life Pictures/Getty Images). She was born a male.  

You should note that very few transgendered women look like this,  when all the silicone and operative slicing is complete.  They (transgenered women) suffer from male patterned baldness,  are subject to prostrate cancer,  have male appearing feet,  must have their boobs "serviced" throughout their lives, and, internally,  are 100% male,  right down to their "Adams apple"  and the never ending aging process.  

The politics of "transgender" :   Cossey will age as a man,  not a woman, but, if she knows this (and even if she does not), she should be free to make such decisions.  Our American/Constitutional system,  does not prevent Cossey from doing so,  or reversing previous decisions.  As long a she allows me to voice my concerns,  I am fine with whatever she does.  Our political/societal system is not a theocracy.  We should never forget that or use our biases (mine included),  to give reason to act as if "theocracy" is the rule of the day.  At the same time,  the Left must leave my 1st Amendment rights alone.  Don't care for my bias (we all have them,  you know),  get over it. 

In 2010, President Obama made Amanda Simpson the first openly trans woman named to a presidential administration when he appointed her Senior Technical Advisor to the Bureau of Industry and Security.  (Arizona Daily Star/AP).  

Turns out,  Obama has been aligned with "gayness" at all levels,  as long as he as been a militant abortionist.  No one,  absolutely no one,  makes the about face he has, after saying all the socially acceptable words necessary to achieve his political goals, without being a closet (gay) ally,  all or most of his life.  I am saying, that he was "gay minded" long before he became president.  His 180,  after becoming president,  was no surprise to those of us who who have followed this man over the past decade.   

More from the Editor:  

Having written the above,  I do not make a case against these folks doing with their bodies,  what they want to do.  I believe it is a gross disservice, however,  to share their decisions,  without discussing the inherent physiological concerns shared above, in my post to the readership.  

If Amanda Simpson does her job well,  I don't care how she looks without clothing.  

My only complaint/concern is this:  I believe that,  in time,  my stated concerns will be considered "hate speech," criminalized and forbidden under that otherwise useless law,  to the detriment of those considering a similar path in life,  but,  without an opposing view or the manifest caveat of a continued and completing male biology,  even after "transgendered" results have been realized.

Important side note:

I am taking the time to write this article because of the following lede:  

Katy Steinmetz / TIME:

Laverne Cox Talks to TIME About the Transgender Movement  —  The Orange Is the New Black star on politics, happiness and why genitalia isn't destiny  —  On TIME's cover this week is an unlikely icon: Laverne Cox.  Bullied and harassed for appearing feminine while growing up in Mobile …

If considering transgender surgery,  the candidate should learn more about the following,  and the potential impact on his or her life,  over the years:  

Research suggests that there appears to be less muscle hypertrophy with strength improvement in women when compared to men. The data suggest that there are no differences between genders in central or peripheral cardiovascular adaptations to aerobic training. However, women in general have a reduced O2 carrying capacity. Another factor that may be responsible for the sex differences seen in the metabolic responses to exercise may be the greater, essential sex specific fat of women . . .   men gain weight, typically,  in different ways than women.  More “fat men,” for example,  experience “belly fat” in ways unique to men. 

Hormonal considerations are vastly different between the two sexes and may effect future treatment programs.    

Transgendered women will never have children as do their birth-women countparts. 

Men have a different chromosomal  make up,  with an X and Y chromosome reality,  while women have only X and X chromosomes. 

Autoimmune diseases affect 8% of the population, 78% of whom are women. The reason for the high prevalence in women is unclear. Women are known to respond to infection, vaccination, and trauma with increased antibody production and a more T helper (Th)2-predominant immune response, whereas a Th1 response and inflammation are usually more severe in men.  All of this remains the case for men transgendered to women. . . . . .  

acute and chronic phases of disease are regulated differently in males and females.

None of the above changes,  in the face of “realignment surgery.”  All such surgery is cosmetic,  none of it represents changes in the biology of the individual.
