dtgreene: You don't need to be sexually active to be transgender.
Alaric.us: This.
I've remained sexually active since I was 14. Yet I know people who are virgins at 30.
One having sex and one's sexual identity have nothing at all to do with each other.
An 95 year old monk can still identify as a straight male, or a gay male, or whatever, even if he never once had sex.
Same is true for people under 18. I knew I liked girls when I was 8. I've never even touched one at that point, but I still knew that I liked them.
Sexual
activity and sexual
orientation are NOT one and the same.
Knowing what you like & being uncomfortable around people that have the same bodily organs are QUITE a bit different.
I knew I liked girls pretty early too, but I don't remember looking for their bits until later on.
rampancy: "Allowing transgenders to use the bathroom appropriate to their gender identity = legitimization of sexual assault of minors" isn't very smart either.
Just one more time, because you insist on twisting my words for who knows what you're expecting to gain, but you are expecting to gain something here.
I have never said that, although I do say & will stand by my claim that trans people are being used as pawns in this.
And you're probably one of them so called "useful idiots" - look it up - that furthers other people's agenda because you're as easily led as a sheep. You just follow the flock & bleat in tune.
