You've never seen my department,then. The last thing we are usually accused of is lacking a sense of humour. Sense of dignity, maybe. Sense of adulthood, certainly. Any sense at all, much of the time. All Classics people do is drink and make dirty jokes - it's our job.

The quote of Batdz you repeated is fair, although I disagree with it.

More problematic is this:

Likewise, if you have a disorder that makes you feel like your maleness or femaleness is wrong and treating the mental disorder is not working, surgery should be considered as an option then, but I don't think that process changes the person's true gender or should guarantee that society treat them as what they think they are.
Do you agree with that, too?
