here is a youtube video from a young Catholic who is a homosexual
he has an interesting perspective on things

from what I have seen he seems fairly orthodox and he speaks with common sense

Here is a great piece by Dr. Paula McHugh as to why he stopped the sexual reassignment surgery at Johns Hopkins.
Give it a fair read. Very insightful


Surgical Sex by Paul R. McHugh | Articles | First Things


Paul McHugh also instructed child molesters under his care on how to circumvent the law by telling them to NOT report their subsequent molestation offenses, while under his care, to their lawyers. Simply inform him, and he would then pass the info to their lawyers. That way, any confession made by them to him fell under doctor/patient privelege, and any information that was passed to the lawyers was simply hearsay.

Yeah, he's a great guy, isn't he?

Googling opinions that agree with yours and offering them as credible evidence, while ignoring the mountains of evidence to the complete contrary isn't really demonstrating an attitude of desire to understand the truth. Especially when the opinion offered isn't from an honest source.

It's a great shame that there are so few people who actually know how to love others as this young man does.

I noted one comment he made near the end that others may NOT actually recognize that a visitor to your church was trans. It is true of many in the trans community that no one recognizes them as trans, especially among transguys. I was quite surprised after a year or two into my transition that people didn't seem to notice me anymore. It still surprises me, actually. But, I rarely get any odd looks whatsoever. I can't even remember the last time it happened it's been so long. I always chuckle when someone shows their ignorance by asserting that they "can always tell". Trust me. I KNOW what to look for, and I sometimes can't recognize other trans folk.

Post a picture then. Make sure you have shaved though.

Post a picture then.

For an "objective" review of whether you can spot things? I'm sure that will be forthcoming. I am generally accepted as female by society too, but there's no way I'm going to expose myself to evaluation by some people on this site.

Make sure you have shaved though.

This would be an indicator of the attitude I'm speaking of in the above.

It was a crude suggestion in the first place. SMH.

If you can't tell, why not show it?

P.S. I have never knowingly been fooled. Key word is knowingly, I know. I've seen some pretty faces, but the bodies have always been just completely not right. Surgery doesn't change everything. They either have the face to fool you but not the body, or the body but not the face. It's never quite right. On a secular forum I post at, there's a thread with "hot" trans women and yeah it's not hot; it's a good attempt, but never right. From my experience and from my view, the best are mistaken for ugly chicks. Or clown like. The ones that really dress up and do the makeup just look like clowns to me.

I asked for a picture so I could look. That's the only thing directed towards any memeber. I requested that he shave because I want to see him at his best attempt.

Because I see no reason to subject myself to rude commentary from people who seem to have no problem with degrading others.

Oh. Well as a man that is a man I don't have a problem showing myself. If I tried to be a chick I'd be embarrassed and not show it though.

With all due respect, Mikhael, that really is none of your business.

This kind of assertion toward Cute Tink could be seen as a personal attack and harassment against her. You need to stop.

Guess you should understand that, since I'm not a man, my view of the subject will be different. I see no reason why someone should subject themselves to the ridicule of someone who seems to have no problem with doing so.

However, I am done with this off topic nonsense. If there are further replies related to the thread, I will be happy to discuss them with interested parties.

I'm an interested party. Please continue discussing the original topic of this thread.

I'd be very interested to see the Church teaching that states you don't address people they way they want to be addressed. If you told me you'd like to be addressed as Daniel, I'd address you as Daniel even if your screen name didn't change. I might slip up and forget, but I can't see any official teaching saying which pronoun you must call people, especially when they have stated a preference.
