That was why I accepted transgenderism a few years ago. I thought it was just another step after accepting universal suffrage, people of various races being friends, interracial marriages and gay marriage. I thought that people who were against transgenderism were simply ignorant or bigoted. Turns out, there is a difference between correcting a problem that was once accepted by society, and trying to change reality, which is pretty much inventing a new problem. In fact, some of the changes we’ve made in the past might have been a mistake. For the record, I am glad that interracial marriage is legal, that same sex relationships between consenting adults are legal, and that a woman can start her own bank account without approval from her husband, her father or her brother. But I also believe that letting everyone vote was a mistake. And I sometimes question if legalising same sex marriage was a good idea when we could have just gotten rid of inheritance taxes and make it a legal right for cohabitants to visit their partners in hospitals and attend their funerals. Especially considering that a growing number of opposite sex couples in my country don’t bother getting married. In fact, Ireland no longer requires the father to marry the mother of his children to legally claim them, as those children are legally his once he’s been living with the mother for 12 months. Although I think that is still dumb, because a paternity test should be enough to get the father all of the rights to his child, even if he’s not living with the mother.
