Sexual+Reassignment+Surgery+is+a+Human+Rights+Issue

Religion, is group of beliefs, or culturally held beliefs that you have about the world, and you live your life based on those beliefs. Every act is religious, and every religion is defined by actions.in particular. The birth of western civilization, after the destruction of many indigenous ways of life, has been driven by the forces of Christianity to colonize the world. Now in modern day western civilization we are dominated by many monotheistic religions, Christianity, Judaism, and Islam and even science. Social constructs like gender are consistently created and defined by religion. In modern issues, people will go so far as to mutilate their bodies in the name of these constructs.

But this is insane, isn’t it? When gender is a fiction, and exists in the minds of those who chose to believe it. People who are considered transgendered have a belief that gender is who you are, and that to be woman is to be this, or to be a man is to act this way. And that being a girl would be to act this way. If you destroy your body, and mutilate your genitals to appear of the opposite sex, then you will be happy, complete, and the right “sex”. This is further assuming that what lies between your legs, actually defines who you are, which it does not. **Gender** As much as I love bashing Industrial civilization, I can’t say I find it enjoyable to bash the confusion and social conflicts created by gender, one of them being “transgenderism”. Transgenders are a group of people who want to be the opposite sex, and believe that they are the opposite sex. It’s complicated, because sex is biology it doesn’t define who you are. Gender Is a social construct, a woman and a man are defined by society as what to be. Transgendered people internalize these myths. They see men as masculine, stronger, or internally different and more athletic, for lesbian women who believe that they should just become men.

The problem with transgenderism is that transgendered people believe that biology defines how a woman or man act. This is a result of Post-Traumatic-Stress Syndrome.They've been raised to believe that women act a certain way, and men act a certain way. That having a penis means your violent, superior, and predatory. And being a women means you are superficial, weak, and submissive.

I’ve known sensitive men who value relationships, responsibility, and friendship,hate competition,masculinity and I’ve known men who are overly competitive, insecure, athletic,violent, and careless towards relationships and family. I’ve known women who hate makeup, shopping, vainity, love intellectuality, relationships and family, and I’ve known women who only care about looks, shopping, and makeup.

Transgendered people are unhappy with themselves, and are going to extreme, dangerous measures to change themselves. They are no different than people who undertake plastic and cosmetic surgery, It's a misuse of surgeons, and it's just wasteful. //The Psychopathy of Sexual Reassignment Surgery// says,

"The desire to imitate the other sex or to pass for the other sex is not new, nor is the amputation of healthy body parts. In many cultures, men were castrated for various reasons, in some cases to preserve the prepuberty boy-soprano voice, in others so that they could serve as guards of harems. Such practices are now considered barbaric. Individual women have at various times in history passed as men. Only when surgical skills advanced to the degree that surgeons could construct an artificial vagina and something resembling a penis or scrotum did sex reassignment surgery (SRS) develop as a surgical subspecialty. The materialist ethic of “If we can do something, we may do it” has created a climate where people see nothing wrong with surgeons destroying healthy reproductive organs and creating artificial organs for those who want them. Those who believe in the radically dualistic ethic of “It’s my body, so I can manipulate it however I like,” are offended if surgeons refuse to grant their demands."

Men and women are human beings, with complexities and feelings. They are built differently to be compatible for human life on this planet. We are not generalizations, we are not to be hypersimplified.

Now what society makes a man, and what society makes a women, are entirely different than what they actually are. Patriarchy creates men that dominate, destroy, rape, murder, and mistreat women and all the other lifeforms on this planet. It creates men that are blinded by entitlement, it creates men that are unhappy with themselves, who must hide behind ego, and the lowering of universe. Black Panther Elridge Cleaver said “ We shall have our manhood. We shall have it or the earth will be leveled by our attempts to gain it.”. Mind you that Elridge Cleaver admits to raping white women for delight, and black women as practice.

Patriarchy also creates women that must obey. It creates passive women, who are property. Virgins to be married, or sluts to be rotated. Modern day patriarchy creates women that must constantly live up to the standards of the corporate media. Women that will starve themselves, and change their physical appearance with manufactured products in order to be “beautiful”. It creates women who see vainity as self worth, women that will spend and hour every morning trying to figure out what to wear. It creates women that exchange their bodies for attention, “love”, or money. It creates women that hate eachother, women that are jealous, and competitive to see who can look the most like a cupcake, or who can draw the most male attention. It basically creates women who are indoctrinated to serve the desires and standards of men.

People who identify as transgendered have in cases felt vicitimized when they were young, or as i said suffer from PTSD. A popular transgendered celebrity named Brandon Teena, in the 90's, before being pointlessly raped, beaten and shot by her supposed "friends", she admits to being continuosly sexually abused by her Uncle when she was young. Her mother says, she was talking to a woman, during Teena's last months of being alive, and that she had become a man so she could not be touched by other men again.

I say this in a domesticated sense, but I think it's incredibly fucked up and disgusting, and shameful that a human being would have to experience anything like that, or a human being would do that to anyone. She didn't trust men, and she had no confidence or safety in her female body, because she had gone through a traumatizing experience where her body was utilized and broken. So she started to lie to everybody that she was a "man", because if she became a man, she believed that was acceptable, and that being a woman she would be harmed.

Unfortunately, she was raped, beaten, and murdered when a group of white trash found out she was a woman in the end. This is one of millions, of incidents that expose the violence of patriarchical societies.



**Patriarchy** Ah, patriarchy. Destroying the world for 10,000 years, along with civilization.Also extremely relevant and threaded within industrial civilization, and necessary for it.

The origins of patriarchy as explored by Gerda Lerner, are formed through the advancement of agricultural societies, which created hierarchical societies, eventually civilization,

"The oppression of women antedates slavery and makes it possible. We have seen in the earlier chapters, how men and women constructed social relations which gave rise to dominance and hierarchies. We have seen how the confluence of a number of factors leads to sexual asymmetry and to a division of labor which fell with unequal weight upon men and women. Out of it, kinship structured social relations in such a way that women were exchanged in marriage and men had certain rights in women, which women did not have in men. Women's sexuality and reproductive potential became a commodity to be exchanged or acquired for the service of families; thus women were thought of as a group with less autonomy than men. In some societies, such as in China, women remained marginalized outsiders to their kin groups. While men "belonged in" a household or lineage, women "belonged to" males who had acquired rights in them. In most societies women are more vulnerable to becoming marginal than are men. Once deprived of the protection of male kin, through death, separation, or by no longer being wanted as a sexual partner, women become marginal. At the very beginning of state formation and the establishment of hierarchies and classes, men must have observed this greater vulnerability in women and learned from it that differences can be used to separate and divide one group of humans from another. These differences can be "natural" and biological, such as sex and age, or they can be man-made, such as captivity and branding"

Patriarchy also needs stories to get people to believe it. Patriarchy in general holds up the belief that man, should not be excluded in history, as is every other living creature. And that history in general, is uniformly taught in the perspective of men. Patriarchical socities believe that man is above women, and the natural world, and that the destruction of these things is progressive and rational.

Women are property, and every other living creature besides men are property. This process is called objectification. Our entire society is based off of this, as is every civilization.

Science, Monothiesm, and many liberal schools of thought like nihilism, try to uphold the myths of patriarchy. I won't say all science or scientists necessarily believe this, but I'm talking about scientific myths, the only knowledge that exists or truth that exists are ones that are domesticable, and subject to human control, that men are predatory creatures rationalizing rape and the objective sexualization of women, and all these other lies about how to run the universe and that apparently the universe is meaningless yet ( we are sent here to dominate it? [Sent by whom?]).

Monothiesm, because monothiestic religions, like christianity say that the purpose of our lives is to serve an abstract god in another world, and that the earth is evil, and that man is to have dominion over it. Women must submit to their husbands. // "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth // ” (Gen. 1:28)  "But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God"-1 Corinthians 3-10   "In like manner also let wivesbe subject to their husbands: that if any believe not the word, they may be won without the word, by the conversation of the wives."1 Peter 3:1-6   The first verse is obvious, breed without thought, subdue the living world. 1 Corinthians 3-10, man shall serve abstract prophet, and woman shall serve man and abstract prophet shall follow abstract god that does not exist in their living world. 1 Peter #:1-6, says women shall be subjected to their husbands, and if anyone chooses not to believe this, married women themselves should convince them. The bible is always open to "interpretation" but honestly, that's the problem. If these type of religious texts leads to misogyny, genocide, ecocide, violence, slavery, and to humans systematically becoming the grim mother-f*cking reaper than what is the logic, what is the point, and why is it even debatable that these things are still tolerated?

Suppose you had a child, I kidnap this child and make them my rapeslave and work for me, and justify it with, "hey,god said I shall have dominion over every living thing on this earth and subdue it!".

Or "you can't scientifically prove that I should stop, or that it is not my nature to exploit life as please! I am stronger than this child, and therefore It is only my predatory nature to take them under my control."

See what I mean yet? Unfortunately, there are sick fucks that do these things, and run our entire society. And I believe the sick fucks(who don't necessarily run society but are end products of it) John Lotter and Thomas Nissen were raised by pretty much the same dogma, of it being okay for them to rape a woman for lying, and murdering three innocent people who were sitting down.Because they were racist, homophobic, rednecks living in a town devastated by economics, I mean who knows what kind of shit they wen't through growing up, but the effects of patriarchy are relevant. Even in that of the cops. Teena Brandon reported the rape, and week before getting raped and beaten, and the cop interrogated her about why she "dressed up like a man", more interested in her sex, than the fact that a crime had just been committed. He eventually dismissed it as lack of evidence of rape. So Lotter and NIssen both murder 4 people, to cover up their tracks, including Teena. They eventually go to jail, being ordered the death sentence, but they kept on appealing their cases back.They are still in jail today.

It's obvious of the injustice here, which I don't believe I need to explore. I mean, the FBI takes out entire families, I mean the police shoot people who aren't white men for not being white men, while two white guys rape and murder four people they get 15 years in prison.



**Transgenders, SRS, and Society** Regardless of how stupid and innately evil that is, we must remember that the true purpose of government is to protect the economists. It's to protect the sociopaths at the top, it's a beuracracy. This means those in control, being the corporations, the rich, can brainwash society under their capitalistic controls. Patriarchy is highly advertised by the media, and mass marketing. A woman can look at a magazine for 5s and feel automatically bad about herself. You ever really look at the people in television shows, on billboards, and see how inhumanely "perfect" they look. Women are totally objectified as marketing tools, creating a culture of women who are insecure with their bodies, who are insecure without dead products, who are narcissistic materialists, who's only worth is appearance based. They also must be abuse and violently treated in pornography and obey to the sexual nightmares of men.

Men in modern day industrial society, are pretty advertised pretty much the same. It's just that their body standards are to be big and muscular, and the roles of men are to participate in the mistreatment of women. And that women are prizes in their quest for economic prosperity, and intercourse with woman ( meaning penetration), is about dominating and demonstrating power over women. It's disgusting when a once beautiful act such as sex has become an act of abuse and degradation.

So trandgendered people have alot of pressure to become "transgendered". The mainstream media, and competitive capitalist society in general furthers the urge. Whether it's them being abused as children close people, or abused as children by people at a distance. Not to even say that abuse doesn't continue out of childhood.

The main problem I have with transgenderism, is that it's based off of stereotypes.It is no different than if a white person felt they were "black" so they started dressing in what they perceived or what was stereotyped as black, they started to talk in ebonics, wear saggy pants, play basketball or do many absurd things often associate with being "black". The main problem is something radical feminist activist Lierre Kieth pointed out in a forum interview when asked why she oppossed transgenderism,

"I have no strange fear of people who claim to be ‘trans.’ I deeply disagree with them, as do most radical feminists... I am really Native American. How do I know? I’ve always felt a special connection to animals, and started building tee pees in the backyard as soon as I was old enough. I insisted on wearing moccasins to school even though the other kids made fun of me and my parents punished me for it. I read everything I could on native people, started going to pow wows and sweat lodges as soon as I was old enough, and I knew that was the real me. And if you bio-Indians don’t accept us trans-Indians, then you are just as genocidal and oppressive as the Europeans."

Caring about animals does not mean you are a native american, many people care about animals, and it doesn't mean they are indigenous. Transgenderism, and wanna-be indians are based off of genocidal and oppressive belief systems. They are based off of profiling, and hypersimplifying religious dogmas. Beliefs that indigenous people are this, that black people are this, that women are this. Transgendered, fake native americans, a fake black people, are basically changing themselves to fit in with the labels of oppressive power structures. That is why transgenderism shouldn't be tolerated, and that's why I believe these people need mentoring and help. Not help from plastic surgeons, not help from scalpels, and artificial horomones. And especially not help from supporters of a hierarchical, competitive society such as ours.

They need someone to tell them that it is okay to be in their bodies. They need someone to explain to them these structures, and this society that oppresses them. Someone that cares. This is why I think sexual reassignment surgery is a human rights issue, because it doesn't give these people proper medical attention. Sexual reassignment surgery, is a fucking crime. But you know what? It generates business. About $170,000 for surgery equals great for surgeons in their field. It think it's also a crime that therapists actually recommend these surgeries to people. So much for social workers. Just another greater example of how much of a business the medical industries are. They are a business that protects other business. Corporations can poison our bodies and minds and get away with it, the medical industry will just make your problems worse,lie to you and just prolong your disease. Money is their religion. Cites:
