Once a Male, Always a Male

This just turns my stomach:

A 12-year-old German boy who insisted he was a girl trapped in a boy's body convinced his parents that something had to be done, so they agreed to allow him to receive a series of hormone injections, making him the youngest sex-change patient in the world, according to published reports Monday.

Now 14, the boy, who went by the name Tim, has now become Kim – a blue-eyed blonde with a growing bust line who is allowed to wear make-up at weekends.

Kim has no boyfriends at present but her parents say she is interested in what, now, is the opposite sex.

The headline is "Boy, 12 becomes Girl, 14." No, the boy has not become a girl. He has become a mutant. He should be taken away from his "parents," and his "doctors" should have their licenses taken away. What rubbish.

JASmius adds: A mutant named Tranny. Somehow that never made it into the X-Men trilogy.

Maybe Rosie O'Donnell and/or Harvey Fierstein weren't available....
