"trans·sex·u·al   Audio pronunciation of "transsexual" ( P )  Pronunciation Key  (trns-sksh-l)
n.

   1. One who wishes to be considered by society as a member of the opposite sex"

yes... so there you have it, he wants to be seen as a women...

much like some elvis impersonators want to be seen as elvis.

put up an alternative shrine...

it's pathetic that FTL is being politically correct and bending over backwards for some confused individual.

It's nothing like the Elvis impersonators and you should know that.  She is a woman, and as such she simply wants to be seen that way. 

And I certainly don't see this as being "politically correct."  I doubt that is Ian's motives behind putting her in the shrine at all.  FTL is not the most politically correct show.  They don't try to be offensive for the sake of being offensive like many shock jocks do, but they certainly won't dance around a topic or betray their beliefs about it in order to pander to the PC crowd.  Puttng her in the shrine makes sense simly because she is a woman, she listens to the show, and she sent in a photo.  That's all there should be to it.

Being politically correct would be moving her to her own little shrine.

He can think whatever he wants about himself... that's fine.

But physically, he IS still a man.  It's that simple. It's irrefutable fact.

It's not the Shrine of "if you're convinced your a woman - we'll put you here" listeners. It's the Shrine of Female listeners.

Just give them their own shrine... miscellaneous or whatever...

no, it is welcoming all beliefs or lifestyles as "normal" (ie- keeping him in the shrine) - that's being PC.

So then why doesn't Ian and Manwich ask for everyone to be agnostic to atheist in their beliefs since both do not profess a strict religious adherence? Would you be angry if they stated you couldn't be on the shrine if you were a Christian, Muslim, or Jew? Your so-called 'normal' lifestyle shit is not only retarded it's down right fucking facist. What happens if one of the female shriners is a lesbian? What about if a butch lesbian gets on the shrine? What happens if a shriner happens to be intersexed? I guess you'll call them freaks as well, but then again, Grey, you are a pathetic little christian trashbag.

No, physically she still has a penis and a Y chromosone.  She is a woman.  I suppose I can see how you can not understand that distinction, since like most of everyone your actual gender and your physical gender are the same, but she is clearly a woman.  I could never see her as any differently.

holy shit, their political stance or belief in God doesn't have any relevance, period.  And of course, they have the right to put anyone in there they want too... it's their own making.  But the whole point of this thread is to offer your views, so that's what I'm doing.

The point is, the Shrine is to harbour, physically real, 100% genuine women.  Not a cross dresser, or a transsexual, or a transvestite... or whatever...

The requirements are so cut and dry (or at least, they used to be).

And furthermore, does your immature, un-educated, childish, incessant name-calling another symptom or your mental condition? or is it exclusive? or is that simply b/c you don't like anyone disagreeing w/ your views? (ps: rhetorical question - just something to ponder)

Really? I thought it was just to show that women(And Bridget is a woman, wether you admit it or not) listened to the show?

did I say they're "evil".  No, I did not.  I said they're abnormal. (not to mention horrendously fugly).

heh... "int'l recognized"... uh huh... *yawn*... I will just take your word for it.
yes yes... she's "famous"... whoopee... a bunch of people think she's great... and that's relevant, how? Keeping in mind Hitler and Saddam are both "internationally recognized" as well...  I think you know as well as I, that mass-knowledge doesn't equate normalcy or legitimacy.


PS... don't get your panties/tighty whities in too much of a bunch, I'm just showing how subjective beliefs are faulty and easily disassembled. ... and plus, it's just fun to debate (pwn you) ;)

Objective reasoning and even common sense escapes some people.  The moment you bring up morality and decency, they jump down your throat. 

It's amazing what the world is coming to.

Morality and decency to me is adhering to the NAP "rule".

That's exactly it... once you hit that nerve (ie- questioning the very fiber of a person's nature/soul - or especially if you show it to be abnormal)... you will obviously get nothing but name-calling and general idiocy.
