Marsh letter: Transgender vs transvestite
According to radio.foxnews.com a 45-year-old male student, who dresses as a woman undressed and exposed his genitals on several occasions inside the woman’s locker room at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Wash. A female swim coach confronted the man sprawled out in a sauna exposing himself. She ordered him to leave and called police. The coach later apologized when she discovered the man was transgender.
This type of thing has happened in other places. This is the type of behavior activists use to force their behavior on the rest of society.
This person was not transgendered. Transgender means changed gender (sex). A transgender male had his genitals removed and replaced with female genitals. This person is a transvestite, meaning dresses as the opposite sex.
Homosexuals with media complicity avoid making the distinction. Because of that, most people probably do not know the difference.
Those transgender people should use facilities of their new gender. Those not transgender have no business in the other sex’s facilities.
Besides all this, when the ovum is fertilized, it either has a Y chromosome (male) or it does not. That can never change for the entire life of the individual.
