A transgender's life in transition

Full story: Connecticut Post

Anne Faith Beon was born practically with axle grease on her hands -- pumping gas as a child, working on car engines and driving hot rods in the beachfront blue collar community where she was raised.

I guess all I have to say is walk a mile in her shoes. You do not have to agree with what she is doing but just have a little compassion.

Who paid for all the surgery and medical needs? Hopefully not the taxpayer.

Obamacare would write the check though....

You know the answer before you asked the question!
She paid for the surgery herself! Now that that's answered, would you please sit down and be quiet?
She has a medical problem! She should've been able to use her medical Ins to fix it! But Med. Ins companies will not extend coverage for SRS (Sex Reassignment Surgery). So Transexuals have to save (On very meagre incomes) the over $20,000 for the surgery and related costs. But you knew this! Your question has been asked so many times before, the answer is well known. OK?

Transition is an ongoing thing. A year from now she will be much more convincing. And, a number of men love Transexuals and seek them out. She won't have any trouble getting a date.

I recently watched a show on the Discovery Health Channel, where a woman had a large tumor/growth removed. Does your advice refer to her too? And what about Breast reduction surgery, mole and wart. and cancerous growth removal. My dentist had to take some of my teeth a while back. This does not even begin to address transplants. Your advice sounds very holy until it's examined a little, then it becomes very flawed.
Furthermore, TSes in India have been voluntarily castrating themselves for millenia to achieve the maximum femmininity achievable (Google Hijra). Jesus even spoke of the practice in Matt 19:12.

alter the penis to approximate female anatomy?
Basically its a mutilated penis that will requier this sick-o to have to walk around with a stint in its fake vag to keep it from closing up because the bodys sees this as a wound.
Ughhh....And this "Shim" will be walking around pretending to be a woman when in fact your just another freak.
To you real ladieds out there, be ready to share a public bathroom with a Shim.

Your ignorance of the Bible is absolutely appalling, not to mention blasphemous. The eunuchs who became so for the glory of God certainly were not trying to feminize themselves. This in more in reference to those who became celibate in order to be able to devote there entire lives to God's service without the burdens that family life would cause. By being celibate, they had more time to devote to serving God. One must also take into consideration the reason for Jesus' discussion of eunuchs which was in response to the disciples statement that if divorce and remarriage equaled Aultery, it would be better not to marry. In this context, the term eunuch was not being limited to castrated males. If I need any advice on Scriptural matters, I would never come to you for advice.

I suppose you could be more disrespectful if you realy tried, But But considereing the name you chose maybe not. Tell me, do you feel this way about everyone who has corrective surgery? To describe us as "Sick" is accurate! However, What you won't acknowledge is that transition is the cure. And the only cure.

How come it fits so well! I have yet to meet a GLBT person who doesn't see themselves in this passage. This non sense about devoted saints on a mountain top is silly. Jesus talked about everyday people. No, our interpertion stands the test of reality, your's doesn't!
