First, we do not march forward on the preaching until acknowledgements of the past have taken place.

Several items from his journal MUST be addressed before stepping forward.

Second, if you are familiar with the content of links and I am not to my knowledge normally etiquette involves including pertinent excerpts from those links. Merely throwing a pile of links is bad form, and is a technique often used to appear as an argument when those links may not even include pertinent information.

Third, I'm not sure if you've yet substantiated your original comment that the GOP won't let you live as you wish.

Fourth, did you just cite an argument made TWO DECADES ago?

Third Point: There has been no modification of gender identity law in two decades at the national level. It doesn't exist there what so ever. The GOP shoots down any attempts to pass any sort of legislation that includes gender identity on it at any level. Zero bills have passed with it in there in the history of congress. Only negative rights, like the quotes I gave, have ever passed.

That pretty much answers all of it, really. There are no more modern excerpts, because there's been no progress in that long. This is part of why I am so frustrated.

he GOP shoots down any attempts to pass any sort of legislation that includes gender identity on it at any level.

Is that because those bills include an overall agenda having to do with "gay rights" or because they are trying to prevent YOU from living as YOU wish, as you claimed?

There are no more modern excerpts, because there's been no progress in that long.

Then your argument appears to be that because the GOP isn't actively working to deal with your issues in particular they are trying to prevent you from living as you wish, which was your original claim. That does not follow.

With all due respect do you really not realize the massive (fly a space shuttle through kind of massive) logical holes in all of these arguments?

The general consensus from the rightwing is that I should undergo therapy and return to living as a man. I'm pretty sure this is a negative view on my life.

Currently it is within the rights of an employer to fire me for being transsexual, it is within the rights of a landlord to evict me for being transsexual. No behaviors are necessary, simply the state of being is enough and legal.

Exactly how can they not be against me, when they oppose any efforts for equality?

AGAIN yo are ignoring my question while pretending o answer it, instead jumping on the victimhood soapbox.

'Is that because those bills include an overall agenda having to do with 'gay rights' or because they are trying to prevent YOU from living as YOU wish, as you claimed?

Your response:
"The general consensus from the rightwing"

PURE VAGUE UTTERLY UNSUBSTANTIATED ASSERTION.

ZERO facts.

In other words, hate speech against the "right wing". And it ISN'T okay because you fancy yourself their victim.

Exactly how can they not be against me, when they oppose any efforts for equality?Since I can't even manage to get rational discourse from you on easy and certain matters I'm not going to bother with your misperception of this and the role of government. I am quickly growing far too frustrated with

[pathia]

I'm a socialist, you expect me to accept your axioms on what government should and shouldn't do?

[melvin_udall]

So you are irrational and a socialist (which is pretty redundant

[pathia]

I have volunteered that I am a socialist in the past. Those on Jordan's LJ are well aware of this and it isn't news to anyone there.

I've been assaulted in the men's room more than once. There are multiple incidents, I think you have merged them in your dialog with me (probably my fault for not being clear enough). So I can't fault you there.

I am on his journal. I was not aware. You were happy to volunteer how even handed you supposedly are, offering that you have supposedly voted GOP, but failed to include the socialist part. The socialist part precludes you from any possible fairness to the GOP. Socialism MUST BE in direct opposition to the Constitution of this country.

[pathia]

I still don't know what you're talking about, so sorry, I really don't get it. You just confuse me more and more. You keep giving generalities. The same thing you've accused me of doing.

[melvin_udall]

That is a lie or delusion.

You have admitted you are not rational so I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume delusion.

shoo

[pathia]

Depends on whether or not I can afford all my meds or not in any given month how rational I am. They're pretty freaking expensive.

[melvin_udall]

You continue with irrelevant distractions. All that need be said has been.

Leave.

If I catch you lying again you will be called on it.

[pathia]

and I will continue to not understand and this will happen all over again.

[melvin_udall]

I think that's a lie. You understand just fine.

If not, at this point your failure to understand is your fault.

Reread the thread until you do understand.

Further replies from you on these threads will be deleted. I asked nicely.

For quotes from the articles, here's the most important bit that's in most of them in one form or another.

The legislation by Williams, of Houston, and Rep. Lois Kolkhorst, of Brenham, would prohibit county and district clerks from using a court order recognizing a sex change as documentation to get married, effectively requiring the state to recognize a 1999 state appeals court decision that said in cases of marriage, gender is assigned at birth and sticks with a person throughout their life even if they have a sex change.
Most states allow transgendered people to get married using a court order that also allows them to change their driver's license, experts said. Some advocates for the transgendered say the Texas proposal would not only prevent future transgendered marriages but also open up the possibility that any current marriage could be nullified.

Anything that applies to transgender, applies to intersex (which is what I am) as there is no distinction in law between the two groups.
