Yup, because he was born a man. There is no “magic” extant that will transform a fella into a gal, no matter how many pieces you cut off of him. =D

You might be right, on the precise statement in your second sentence. However, when a woman is born with a male body, and chooses to have her body transformed into what she knows herself to be in her inner self, it’s quite possible to do so.

As for the rest of it, I don’t believe that any human being is **bound** into being whatever he or she happens to be at a given point in time.

Hell, even **you** might someday become an intelligent, respectful member of society!

I think I’m going to go with the medical profession and the transgender people over you on that one…

Btw, thank you for the bump Q-tip, as my primary pit thread was about to slip to the next page. Anything you can do with [my secondary pit thread?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=285347) ;j

Into “what she knows herself to be in her inner self?” WTF are you talking about? That is dictionary definition PC BS. Puhleeze. =D

Jesus Christ on a fucking pair of moon boots! I can’t produce a cite to show you that something hasn’t happened. The only person referring to “magic” in that thread is you. Everybody else is talking about a medical procedure to make people’s physiology match their gender.

There have been several threads, loaded with cites, on this subject, if you do wish to educate yourself on it.

As for your response to me, [here’s the definition.](http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=asshole)

Lots of “I want this to be true” bs on my pit thread tonight, with nothing to back it up. I appreciate the bump, but GODDAMN, if you are going to post, post something with a little backbone. This shit is too easy. =D

Okay, my friend. I repeat **Mr2001** ’s statement in the other thread that you are posting ignorant flamebait, and refer you, as **Polycarp** has done, to any of the number of discussions of this topic that can be found here and elsewhere. Not that I imagine you’ll bother to go enlighten yourself.

How about you? What have you got, that isn’t opinion, to show that it isn’t true?

Seems like your posting here and in the male/female orgasm thread is tending towards “I want this not to be true” BS.

Will you people please stop feeding this troll, unless you have some cyanide you can slip into your posts?

“Shunning.” That’s the way to deal with people like this. Ignore him. Let his threads (like this one) just drop off the front page. Don’t bite at his bait.

Sorry, dear. I personally feel a call to come to the defense of you two ladies whom I know and like very much, when someone rude decides to pontificate on something he knows nothing whatsoever about. Not that it’s my place to say, but I really find the moderators’ silence disturbing – it’s as clear an intentional series of Rule #1 violations as I’ve ever seen on this board.

The question, though, that might make this thread interesting, is what would be the result, given his views on SRS, if someone were to rip **him** a new one? 😉

Nice try, **Eve** , but I doubt your plea will garner any more attention than mine did in post number 155.

You’d think people would know better by now, wouldn’t you? Especially when this one isn’t even mildly entertaining.
