Transgenderism

Description

Despite my great support of transgenderism and transgenders, it is my personal belief that society (as well as transgenders themselves) have it backwards. Transgenders often identify themselves as being people who were "born with the wrong genitalia"; a disposition which seems highly reminiscent of the Native American beliefs regarding the "Two-Spirit". However this attitude seems somewhat childish and overly imaginative, because ultimately one's genitalia has little bearing on how womanly or manly you are...nor should it. This is why I say that there is nothing wrong with a woman who has a penis nor a man who has a vagina.

In truth, it is the fault of society and the stereotypes it has bred regarding the varying genders which causes people to believe themselves "born with the wrong genitalia". In reality there is no true difference between the mentality of men and women and all supposed characteristics inherit to each gender is simply stereotyping and cultural brainwashing. Girls are raised to believe that women are supposed to be sensitive, neat, and delicate while boys are raised to believe that men are supposed to be strong, tough, and emotional rigid. Because of this when nature ultimately gives way to a woman who fancies kickboxing, extreme sports, or military service she is labeled a tomboy or "a man in a woman's body". Likewise when nature gives life to a man who enjoys cooking, cleaning, and painting his toenails he is supposedly a sissy and considered gay or "a woman in a man's body".

Unfortunately, it seems that transgenderism has been unwittingly used as a tool to perpetrate the stereotypes surrounding gender instead of evidence that men and women are actually one and the same. To me, the very existence of transgenders just proves beyond any doubt that there is no difference between the mind and disposition of men and women, and the only thing gender really determines is whether you were born with a penis or a vagina, but it should always be bore in mind that having a penis does not make you a man nor does having a vagina make you a woman. Your physical genitalia bears no reflection on how masculine or feminine you are, and furthermore it should not. Again, this is why I say that there is nothing wrong with a woman who has a penis nor a man who has a vagina.

In conclusion, transgenders should stop saying they were born in the wrong body. They were not born in the wrong body. They are precisely as nature intended them to be. It is not nature or "god" that screwed up, but rather society which has created a false perception of what constitutes as "masculine" or "manly" and what supposedly is "feminine" or "womanly". Truly does it pain me to listen to transgenders say they are unhappy with their bodies and watch them undergo extreme surgical transformations to alter their outward appearance in order to appeal  to the false ideals manufactured by society. In my eyes, I see this as blatant conformism, falsehood, and a waste of potential. In transgenderism lies the key to destroying gender stereotypes forever, but only if it is redirected toward the unification of the opposing genders instead of furthering the already gaping gap between men and women.
