people can call themselves whatever they like man/woman/none of the above we are all 'humans'.

Re: Trans Madness
I think the title of this thread - "trans madness" - is accurate. If a person, despite their genetics (like Rachel Dolezal) claimed they were black when they were white, or a 21st Century man claimed they were Julius Caesar, then we would quite reasonably assume that they were suffering from some form of dissociative mental health disorder. However, nowadays, if someone who is 100% genetically male or female claims that they "feel" they are the opposite gender to that indicated by their physiological reality, we are expected to indulge that delusion. No wonder that large parts of the feminist movement which has fought for decades to achieve rights for women are now somewhat miffed to be told that they must accept that some men are women, despite their genetics.

Being a woman is fantastic - that's why they all want in on the act!

I agree dongles.
It's probably us older generation with the problem of acceptance though, as the kids today will have grown up with the whole idea, but we didn't. So these things will no doubt seem just part of everyday life to them.
It's probably being taught in schools already!

Re: Trans Madness
Ask someone in the middle ages if they were happy with the gender they were given and It would appear very low down on their list of priorities, if at all.They were too busy surviving, working, growing food or looking after animals. Providing for their families through hard physical labour. Unless they were wealthy of course.....
We are far too comfy in this day and age, our biggest problems are; why is my wi fi not working and does my smartphone need upgrading. We are supplied with running water, electricity, and a means of waste disposal. Supermarkets are stacked to the gunnels with every type of food you can mention. And fast food outlets will provide you and your kids with a quick fix of nutrition, and cheaply.
So what is there left to worry about? Can I afford the latest Nike trainers? and I think I want to be a woman....Someone said it's fantastic!....
And it's no surprise that most successful male celebs are gay.....They've tried everything else!
