I don't understand why you don't think she is fully female, especially when there is an actual condition called gender dysphoria. THE OFFICIAL TERM IS "gender dysphoria." It describes a strong conflict between the gender a person is assigned at birth and the gender with which that person identifies. Link to comment

I think in cases like hers and many, many others, they have pretty much the same situation but nature took hold a little more but in their core they're trans.

I don't know what I am doing of course. Great video though. You might find this of interest. The way YouTube works, YT saved a cookie on your machine indicating the last time you watched it when you paused or quit it. It then starts at that point when you go back. The cookie eventually expires, however, and if you wait long enough it will start at the beginning again. Or you can move the run position to where you want. And now I'm going way past what you're interested in, probably... If you click on the Share button, YT will provide a link for you to copy to your clipboard. There's a checkbox (that is unchecked by default) which if checked will have YT put a time hack on the link it will generate, which is the time hack the playback was at when you clicked Share. If you leave it unchecked, it will provide a link to the start of the video. If checked, it will provide a link with the time hack, like this one (to a music video): https://youtu.be/wy6EFoVy92A?t=4659 1 Link to comment

Blackface minstrel shows advertised in the official Church News as well as Deseret news. http://www.keepapitchinin.org/2010/11/23/brethren-in-blackface/ Minstrel shows are an important part of our entertainment and musical past. They have a very complex history. Much of our entertainment today can be traced in part or in whole to their influence, content, and format. While we can learn much about our racial history from them, I hesitate passing judgment on our ancestors because of them. Also, there is the matter of doing better once we know better. Did you like the New Christy Minstrels? The Knights of Columbus still sponsored minstrel show charity fund-raisers when I was in high school. They were a sanitized version that was essentially a community talent show, but with men in blackface playing the parts of Mr Interlocutor, Mr Bones, Tambo, and Mr Bojangles doing some of the skits, banter, jokes, etc. Mr Bones actually did a tap dance in a skeleton costume illuminated by UV light. He was very good. My high school folk band played in two shows. I learned to play the bones there. I still have one of the programs around here someplace. This was in one of the most progressive and highly educated cities in the US. And for my junior and senior years our student body presidents were black and Latino respectively. I’m not here to extol the wonders of minstrel shows, but I wonder how future historians will judge us based on what we accept as entertainment today. I hope they are merciful.

We really cant say we know thing in the church to be true, we have to say "I believe it could be true." This doesn't make sense to me. Sorry if it sounds like I am blaming you for this.

I have read stories of humans who thought they were different animals. I have read articles on humans who were convinced they could fly. I have read articles about other humans who knew they were vampires or werewolves. The human mind can imagine almost anything and there are times where the mind simply cannot be trusted to define reality. If you think this is an incorrect statement, please get one of those humans that believes they can fly and allow them to step off a cliff to prove they can fly. I hope you begin to see the error of your statement - what Chris Jenner came to believe about himself has nothing to do with reality. The reality is that Jenner is a man; you can dress up as a woman all you want and you are still a man. We have entered an era of the absurd. Because humans are prone to mental illness we have concluded that if a human thinks or feels it then it must be reality. Why don't we just treat the problem with these individuals rather than indulge them in their fantasy? 1 Link to comment

She is now fully female and she cross dressed since pretty young, any chance she could. She hid it from everyone for many years. I wonder if Mr. Young was going through the same thing. I'll have to research, and see if this wasn't just an acting gig for one show or not. So, has Bruce had a lopitoffomy? I don't think so. Anyway, there is no way a genetic male can be fully female. It doesn't happen. 1 Link to comment
