Yes, a lesbian trapped in a man's body.

(If you're going to insult users, I suppose you won't mind if I insult you.)

i encountered a man years ago, he looked like a typical auto mechanic or plumber.. but he would come out of his apartment dressed a bit oddly.. from the waist up, he was wearing a red flannel shirt with a bandana on his head like a typical biker might wear.. but from the waist down, he was wearing panty hose and garter belts and high heel shoes... thru the grapevine, i learned that he thought that he is a lesbian that is trapped in a mans body.. he wants to get a sex change and be a lesbian..

he would bring home some of the hottest women..

he is beyond crazy.

i met another guy that was sitting in the back seat of a greyhound bus on a multi thousand mile trip... he wanted to get a sex change... he showed me his boobs.. i wasnt terribly impressed.. personally, i think he was entirely off his rocker.. plum crazy..

and these are the people that are working as teachers in our public schools today.

Wait:

he would bring home some of the hottest women..

Well, then, what's the problem?

I can assure you I don't want to look like or dress like a woman. That's not at all what I referred to when I joked about being a lesbian in a man's body.

Regarding your exceptional knowledge of transvestites, intersex and transvestite intersex people, it's perhaps worth noting that people are rather complex.

homosexuality, in general, is a mental disorder..

You have any clinical psychiatry reports to back that up?

You might know that there are biological, anthropological, and psychiatric reports that state the opposite - and that binary attraction - though common for most of us, has historically and among various species also included attraction to the same sex, or to family members (quite rare, I think), or to children (also rare), or to animals (extremely rare, I would think), or silicone sex dolls (seems extremely rare). My point is: is one's sexuality mainly a "mental" problem? No, it's deeper than that. Many - if not most - of us just don't understand it.

I think you just proved my point.

Not in the least

homosexuality is a disease, and our world is now feeling the after effects of this disease, and the bad news is that it is only going to become worse.

We can try to define sexuality (and/or gender) according to our personal opinions, but by definition, one's non-heterosexuality is not a disease.

I'll admit I don't understand why someone would not naturally be heterosexual, but there are significant variations in sexuality in certain species, as noted above, and secondly, if part of the decision about sexuality is a choice sobeit. Is there really any harm in letting people determine their own sexuality (and gender)? (You of course don't have to answer that.)

Mainly, to address this issue, one would first have to consider biology and human rights, and perhaps anthropology. One could thereafter consider the potential disease, which would depend on the initial basic assumptions, and would expand the discussion to the necessity for clinical evidence. For example, obesity is considered a disease today, though it was not considered a disease 500 years ago. Homosexuality was, however, depathologized in the US in 1973 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4695779/). If you and the government want to consider homosexuality a disease or even "gross indecency", there would be the potential return to chemical castration or prison time for anyone prosecuted as a homosexual, as happened to Alan Turing in 1952 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Turing). Does that seem appropriate? (You also don't have to answer that)
