For some reason, they seem to get a lot of flack from conservative fundamentalists. Which is odd, seeing as even the Bible has nothing to say on the matter.

For those that don't know...
Transgender is not cross-dress. It is actual identification with a different biological sex.

Not really. Who someone is attracted TO is completely separate from what they personally identify AS.

Now go back to trolling DTRM like you usually do.

Its because people are afraid of the unknown. I certainly dont blame them, because its ignorant to blame someone for the human condition(lol IRONY!!)

We need more education about it. Unfortunately people are afraid if we educate too much, itll recruit them to being a transgender. Just like being around a gay person somehow makes you gay.
Its a tough, but its going to take a long time. And I mean decades, perhaps more, before theyre truly accepted.

Its blacks in America all over again.

In a lifetime of disaster, it's a battle to the end,
Final stand, my life must carry on, And forever, this time.

How is that homosexuality?
Biologically some people are born girls, but in male bodies. Their hormones may say female, but they have a penis. And vice versa.

I see your first instinct is still to insult people.
So if I'm born in Bangladesh and get arsenic poisoning, and I'm upset, I'm "not happy with what God gave me"?

I have news for you....the f..k..g evangelicals, fundamentalists have problems with anything that they can't control.  However they could care less about your soul (which transgender has no affect on) but care only about your money and what you can do to help them control everything.

1. Why are you assuming all transgender is MtF? O_o

2. What's the problem with being able to tell MtF from "real" girls?

ok obviously we don't all have hate issues. But for a lot of us the concept is just a foreign one. not usual, so we may be a little weirded out by a trans-gendered individual. but upon getting to know them and finding out they are a nice person, those feelings should go away.
