A liberal utopia. Ben Levin would be proud

Last week I heard on the news a human rights lawyer arguing if a man wants to identify as a Filipino woman that that is his right and his wishes need to be respected cause after all who are we to tell him otherwise. Then today this comes across my desk and I gauranfookintee that he will have no shortage of human rights wackjobs and lawyers line up to defend him.

He is claiming he is TRANS AGE

For the record the Filipino woman or the Caitlyn Jenner stuff doesn't bother me, I may not understand it but really don't care one way or another. What is concerning is this slippery slope of being able to identify as anything you please and the rest of you be damned if you don't agree.

I actually saw this happen - was in the parking lot of a grocery store - the place is busy and the parking lot is pretty full - some guy pulls into a empty spot marked for pregnant woman and women with small children - he gets out and starts walking towards the store - some woman stops him and says something to the effect that he doesn't look like a pregnant woman - he tells her that she got to get with this transgender thing - says right now he feels like a pregnant woman - and proceeds into the store - I heard the whole thing and thought that was a pretty good answer

Says a guy who thinks it is okay to take any pregnant woman's parking spot, so much for chivalry. Pretty tough stance for someone who always wants men to act like men, and women to act like women..... I guess only when it suits you.

You are both quite correct.
