Often times we come across the topic of self acceptance, and how it should be perceived. On ATRL where many of the members are gay, there is a shared experience with self-acceptance and the journey to it. It Transsexualism similar in any way? or should it be treated differently? Should it be encouraged?. I am in no way a hateful person or a bigot but I personally do not believe it should be encouraged. If one should accept oneself does than not mean that they should take themselves as they are. If transsexualism is encouraged does that in a way send the wrong message about a lot of things. Think for instance if someone were to change their race, or reject their culture, if they were to reject a major fact that identifies them, would we necessarily encourage that on this site, I don't think so. I am very tolerant of different lifestyles but its different when it is the rejection of ones very self. What do you think, please discuss with intellect and facts not with anger and hate. Thank You.
