Russia has listed transsexual and transgender people among those who will no longer qualify for driving licences.

Have you actually looked into it at all? What the medical community believes? What research has been done? Fuck.

You know what's really sad is you say this without seeming to realize there's a different between "what a group of people agree to believe in" and "logic/right inference/accurate use of words". I can point to the same "communities" in Russia and say "have you looked into what the Russian Psychiatric Association believes?" and you would agree that it's absolutely meaningless.

Prove yourself wrong you bigoted shit. It's not hard.

Hey you mongoloid, prove me wrong using logic, it shouldn't be hard(unless I'm right and you're the one being bigoted, bigoted against people with mental illnesses - which is why you are trying so hard to not classify the compulsion to see yourself as a woman[as a man] or the compulsion to see yourself as a man[as a woman] which drives you to mutilate yourself AS a mental illness) - but you can't, you need to refer to collective beliefs and appeals to emotion or some authority, rather than using logic to defend your beliefs.

I'm not being proved wrong because I'm not wrong, which is the real reason why you're responding in such a childish and confrontational way. Only takes a bit of logic and thinking to actually prove me wrong if I was wrong - but I'm not - so you can't.

But I get the feeling you only listen to assenting opinions.

Do you seriously not realize that this is what YOU are doing? Seriously, you're an idiot, and you use these words like "assenting" to try to make yourself feel intelligent while really you're a. bigoted against people with mental illnesses which is why you're trying so hard not to call "transgenderism" what it really is(a disorder existing in the mind, a mental disorder, which causes extreme dis-ease, bad feelings, and a desire to self-mutilate and not accept one's natural, biological self - pretty much the definition of psychiatric illness), and b. wrong.

You're the one who is doing all the things you're accusing me of doing, and you're the one who's a bigot. Sorry, try again, next time use logic instead of appeals to some external authority that stops you from needing to actually defend your own views and beliefs, or reasoning instead of insults, you bigoted, closed-minded fuckwad.
