This could go either way. They might get new viewers to see the transgender compete or they gone have a viewership of 19.4 b/c all straight men decide to tune into women’s gymnastics instead to get their fill of T&A.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AND SEE!

YALL YES

I just don’t get how someone would want to alter their body.

I mean you can love who you want, but changing physical characteristics

Candi

Boobs woman!

@FEFE

If this person is living as a woman and can be considered a “Miss” then no, I don’t see the problem. Women have broken the gender barrier on several male-specific activities.

I see all this sht as silly and superficial anyway so whatever.

Yep they should just have a Transgender Ms. Universe

This is some bs IMO because how can a regular woman compete against a surgically altered woman. Are the real women allowed to have plastic surgery?

It’s all some bs because if you need surgery (men or women) then you shouldn’t even be in a competition no how!

CHOCO THANKS MA! I WILL.. STILL GOT 2 HOURS OF WORK AND I DONT WANT TO DRIVE #SCARY

@YSo

I may have a soft spot for this too because I competed in pageants growing up and I’d be pretty pissed off if I placed behind someone who was born a MAN…that takes away from the competition IMHO…Them living as a woman and artificially altering themselves to look like one does not make them one genetically or naturally….

Women breaking the barrier still stands in the fact that women compete in those male-specific activities against OTHER WOMEN… but ehh, I guess… whatever…

And I’d like to know which one of them up top is the transgendered…I think it’s the one on the right but it gets harder and harder to tell these days…

People change the body that “God” gave them all the time. Dye their hair, wear contacts, get tattoos and piercings…Exchanging your dck for a clyt is just a more extreme form.

If one really feels they are trapped in the wrong body, should they suffer to make sure other people are comfortable? Just because you don’t understand doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

Lakes(EVA)

Here’s my thoughts on this subject. If you’re allowing transgenders to compete, it’s no longer a Miss competition it’s Miss/Mr. Why not allow a plus size woman to compete as well since the rules are being bent? I wish some scruffy big dude name Rasheed with a goatee and dreads would sue to compete, since they’re allowing men into the competition

To each his/her/shim’s own..

@Phro, I’m mad that you remember it was 1994 Ion even remember the fiirst time i humped

<–straddling one. Meet me on the rooftop yo!

@YSo

Ok but someone WITHOUT tattoos or piercings won’t be allowed to compete against those WITH tattoos or piercings because they don’t QUALIFY!

This topic could go ’round and ’round…..the blo-han post is prolly a bit more light-hearted…

Phrozen1der says:

And he shouldn’t have a job making comments like that! A wise man knows when to hold them and when to fold them.. And he should left that deck of cards at the STO that time…

@YALL

You know how I feel about God so I won’t go there with this.

I will say if you haven’t lived it you can’t know and therefore can’t tell someone how to feel about their body. You don’t just decide to go through major surgery and hormone therapy on a whim. There’s gotta be something there other than vanity or simple gender confusion IMO.

Gender Identity Disorder
Definition
The psychological diagnosis gender identity disorder (GID) is used to describe a male or female that feels a strong identification with the opposite sex and experiences considerable distress because of their actual sex.
Description
Gender identity disorder can affect children, adolescents, and adults. Individuals with gender identity disorder have strong cross-gender identification. They believe that they are, or should be, the opposite sex. They are uncomfortable with their sexual role and organs and may express a desire to alter their bodies. While not all persons with GID are labeled as transsexuals, there are those who are determined to undergo sex change procedures or have done so, and, therefore, are classified as transsexual. They often attempt to pass socially as the opposite sex. Transsexuals alter their physical appearance cosmetically and hormonally, and may eventually undergo a sex-change operation.
Children with gender identity disorder refuse to dress and act in sex-stereotypical ways. It is important to remember that many emotionally healthy children experience fantasies about being a member of the opposite sex. The distinction between these children and gender identity disordered children is that the latter experience significant interference in functioning because of their cross-gender identification. They may become severely depressed, anxious, or socially withdrawn.
Causes and symptoms
The cause of gender identity disorder is not known. It has been theorized that a prenatal hormonal imbalance may predispose individuals to the disorder. Problems in the individual’s family interactions or family dynamics have also been postulated as having some causal impact.
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV), the diagnostic reference standard for United States mental health professionals, describes the criteria for gender identity disorder as an individual’s strong and lasting cross-gender identification and their persistent discomfort with their biological gender role. This discomfort must cause a significant amount of distress or impairment in the functioning of the individual.
DSM-IV specifies that children must display at least four of the following symptoms of cross-gender identification for a diagnosis of gender identity disorder:
a repeatedly stated desire to be, or insistence that he or she is, the opposite sex
a preference for cross-dressing
a strong and lasting preference to play make-believe and role-playing games as a member of the opposite sex or persistent fantasies that he or she is the opposite sex
a strong desire to participate in the stereotypical games of the opposite sex
a strong preference for friends and playmates of the opposite sex
Diagnosis
Gender identity disorder is typically diagnosed by a psychiatrist or psychologist, who conducts an interview with the patient and takes a detailed social history. Family members may also be interviewed during the assessment process. This evaluation usually takes place in an outpatient setting.
Treatment
Treatment for children with gender identity disorder focuses on treating secondary problems such as depression and anxiety, and improving self-esteem. Treatment may also work on instilling positive identifications with the child’s biological gender. Children typically undergo psychosocial therapy sessions; their parents may also be referred for family or individual therapy.
Transsexual adults often request hormone and surgical treatments to suppress their biological sex characteristics and acquire those of the opposite sex. A team of health professionals, including the treating psychologist or psychiatrist, medical doctors, and several surgical specialists, oversee this transitioning process. Because of the irreversible nature of the surgery, candidates for sex-change surgery are evaluated extensively and are often required to spend a period of time integrating themselves into the cross-gender role before the procedure begins. Counseling and peer support are also invaluable to transsexual individuals.
Prognosis
Long-term follow up studies have shown positive results for many transsexuals who have undergone sex-change surgery. However, significant social, personal, and occupational issues may result from surgical sex changes, and the patient may require psychotherapy or counseling.

Answering Parents’ Questions on Gender Confusion in Children

by Glenn Stanton

At the news of every child’s birth, what is the first question we ask about the baby — even before we ask if the baby is healthy? We want to know if it’s a boy or girl!

Knowing the sex of the child is the first way we seek to connect with and understand the new human being. To be human is to be gendered — male or female. And one of the most important jobs of a parent is to help their children develop as healthy boys or girls and into strong, confident men and women.

Here are answers to some of the biggest questions parents have about gender issues with their children:

Is it normal and healthy for young children to participate in cross-sex behavior?

Of course! The whole world of a child is exploration. The role of the parent is to make sure their children explore and learn about their world in safe and directed ways. My son has four sisters, and when he was very small he loved to play dress up with his sisters, even in their own dresses and sparkly shoes. This is fine at 2 years old. Not so much at 8 years old! It is important for parents to not overreact to such behavior but to slowly guide it in gender-proper directions. That is how kids learn.

Remember, most little boys and girls have never been men or women before, and they need both mother and father to show them what being one is like, as well as what it is not!

Is “tomboy” behavior in girls just as concerning as “sissy-girl” behavior in boys?

There are important differences here. Tomboy behavior in girls is more prevalent and often more short-lived than distinct feminine behavior in boys. It is more important for parents to lovingly, calmly but confidently steer fem-boys into more masculine directions. Make sure you find masculine things your boy is interested and can find identification in. All boys need to be intentionally welcomed into the world of men, and both mother and father play a key role here. Girls, likewise, need to be introduced into the world of women.

It is also important for parents to recognize that “tomboy” girls are much less likely to be teased for various reasons than “sissy” boys. Of course, teasing is always wrong, but parents must be aware of what things are more likely to attract harsh teasing and steer their children away from it.

What about boys or girls who display strong cross-sex behavior in pre-adolescence?

There are some children who, as they grow, will demonstrate stronger cross-sex behavior. Some of these boys will be obsessed with mermaids, frilly girl things and long hair. It is important for parents and extended family to look not just at the child, but the family system itself. Such behavior is typically a curious indicator of deeper problems within the family.

Dr. Kenneth Zucker, one of the world’s leading authorities on gender confusion in children, calls this dynamic “family noise” which he explains as unhealthy relationships between mother and father, parents and child, as well as sibling to sibling. He says allowing a boy to live as a girl might solve the immediate anxiety of such a child, but it would ignore the larger problem driving such desire, and it fails to serve the child and the family.

Is it true that cross-sex behavior and transgenderism in children have a biological root in the brain?

In a word, no!

New developments in brain research indicate that the human brain develops with distinct male and female characteristics, but there is no data showing this drives cross-gender behavior.

•
Dr. Zucker explains, “Gender dysphoria (confusion) is increasingly understood [by some]…as having biological origins [in] small parts of the brain. In terms of empirical data, this is not true. It is just dogma.” 1

•
Professor Eric Vilain, a UCLA geneticist specializing in sexual development, recently explained to the Atlantic Monthly that, “there is no evidence of biological influence on transsexualism yet.” If we ever do find some hard-wired biological component for gender identity, he says, “my hunch is, it’s going to be mild.”2 He indicates that family factors play a key role.

•
Another leading scholar in the field, George Rekers from the University of South Carolina, explains:

Given the present state of our knowledge, we must tentatively conclude the main source of gender deviance is found in psychological development variables and social learning within the family environment, including the processes of identification with parental figures and peers of the same sex.3

What is the best course for helping children who are gender confused?

It should be remembered that very few children who demonstrate gender confused behavior continue to do so in their later teen years or early adulthood. Most grow out of it and learn to live well in their masculinity or femininity. This fact also speaks against a biological foundation.

It is critical that both mother and father work together to provide loving but intentional direction. For boys, the mother should be the one to “push” the child from feminine behavior, and the father should “pull” the boy toward more masculine play and interests. One of the worst things is for dad to “shame” the boy for girl-like behavior. He should always work to welcome his son into the curious world of men. That is how healthy masculine identity happens.

Harvard professor Jerome Kagan has spent 4 decades studying such children and he finds that parenting style is critical for helping children move out of gender confusion. Kagan says parents who are particularly affirming of their children’s cross-sex identification ultimately have the worst outcomes in child health and well-being.4

With children showing opposite-sex tendencies, mothers should deeply and carefully guard against overprotection and coddling, while fathers should guard against shaming and nagging. Again, mothers should become the pushers away from gender-discordant behavior and fathers the gentle pullers toward healthy gender-aligned attitudes and behaviors.

@ Ms.Fashion –

Oooh, ain’t nothing wrong. I’m not fed up. I just stated an opinion as so many others do. I know you’re not use to it cause I don’t do it much!

@ Knowledge – I’m good. How you male-crush???

Chaz Bono still has a vagina and ovaries though

Knowledge

@ Smurfette – NOOOOO, not at all. EVERYONE is entitled to their opinions. You don’t see me debating NOT ONE PERSON’s opinion on here. I just stated mine! No need for an apology.

Oh, I don’t think so either! I was a tomboy

—————————-
Gypsy, you are correct! I just read that in 2010 Chaz underwent female-to-male gender transition, and legally changed his gender & name.

Some stuff I just don’t need to know about
