Alright, I'm new here so cut me a little slack, still getting a hang of posting here, but I'd like to share a funny/serious thought.
I've noticed the attitude about trans people here is pretty negative and hey, that's fine, but I wanted to offer my perspective on the matter
I've realized that Jurassic Park is funnily enough a pretty good metaphor for this situation, well sort of.
Basically the themes of Jurassic Park deal with man's desire to control nature, "you never had control, that was the illusion"
Where is the line drawn between what man can control and achieve and what is entirely up to nature? The sky seems to be the limit in this day and age due to our technological prowess, but is it really? What if we don't have the control we think we do? You can clone a dinosaur, but that doesn't mean you can show it off in a zoo, just like you can bring a horse to water but you can't make it drink.
In today's world we have more and more people saying that they can just choose whatever gender they want, nature be damned.
And no, it's not fair that you can't choose your gender, it's not fair that a big aspect of life like that is out of our control, but that's life, that's nature, life may find a way but it isn't always fair.
Just like the dinosaurs may break out and start killing people, messing with gender the way we do today is dangerous and has resulted in deaths, this is no laughing matter, we are doing people a disservice by not bring them more down to Earth.
But there is a tragic element to trannies though, like John Hammond at the end looking at his Amber cane while the sad piano music was playing, the dude was wrong, basically the villain of the story, but he had a dream and it's a shame his dream just didn't jibe with reality, you can't help but have some sympathy (but in this scenario imagine John Hammond is a tranny)
It really is funny how prescient Jurassic Park is, but that's Michael Crichton for you, the dude was smart as hell and way ahead of his time, Rising Sun critiqued political correctness, Disclosure critiqued women in the work force and State of Fear critiqued global warming, but it all boils down to what he was talking about in Jurassic Park, that modern man has a god complex and it's bound to bite us in the ass, like a dinosaur would.
