[QUOTE=Laferio;32387238]To be frank, its been stated in medical studies that the cause of GID is currently unknown, and how many theorize that it could be the lack of hormones(male/or female) in fetal stage.[/QUOTE]
Ain't there any theories that the cause of it might be emotional? Ain't what they imagine it to be after it's somewhat "complete"? Ain't used to the new gender environment (example, a male turned to female don't feel quite well with other females)?
As long as they don't take their pants off, it's okay.

Yes, maybe. But then again. They are theories. Nothing has really medically proven GID to be.. I'm not exactly sure on how to pinpoint the word..
Not in 10 year olds.
Other than that with the proper psych evaluations fine.
I'm not sure where I stand with this. I see these people and think "you get what you get and you don't get upset". A "white people problem" if you will. Most impoverished people don't even have the liberty of worrying about crap like that when they're scraping by.
But I'm a live and let live guy, I really don't care unless they start hitting on me.

why would you even need to qualify your acceptance with that?
is there some legitimate reason to believe a transsexual is more likely to be indecent than anyone else?

did you really just compare this to a "white people problems"
white people problems are "i ordered a steak rare and got medium" or "The weather's a bit chilly today"
not
"everything about who i am is wrong and it is tearing my soul apart"
If people want to do it, who cares, it's their choice, but it does make their sex organs pretty much useless, and that's a major negative factor and they should be careful and learn about it as much as they can before deciding.

nowadays that's not a huge issue, given that you can freeze your egg/sperm cells (before the operation) or adopt.
or just let other people worry about kids.

What does my post have anything to do with "classifying as someone to be indecent"? All I meant was I personally am fine with transsexuals, and I won't turn away if I don't have to see their mutilated or contradicting intimate part.

Why do you even feel the need to include that in a discussion about treating them as equals?

What causes it should have absolutely no bearing on how you perceive people who have it.

I can see you're struggling with understanding how to add a shred of nuance to your statements, given the fact you're throwing the word "mutilated" around like confetti. You realize it's a negative word and quite offensive to use in this situation, correct? More importantly, how disgusted you are by them has absolutely no relevance to the topic.
You have the right to your own body. Personally I think you'd want to wait for better technologies, but I'm not going to tell you no.
