Agree... Especially about the boobie part.My wife is watching that as I am on the board right now ??????????????? I don't understand But I also believe that we all have the right to do with our bodies as we please. just a note if I had Bobbie's I would stay home and play with them all day!!
I agree. It doesnt hurt me so I really dont care. If hes happy, then good for him.I say good for him. You can't help what you feel and that's how he feels. It's just strange because most people are not familiar with that scenario, which doesn't mean it's wrong and who's to say otherwise? Everyone deserves to be happy and if that's what makes him happy, good for him. The world would be a better place if more people were happy, as it makes for a better quality of life and in turn makes for healthier choices.
The way I see it is that he wasn't happy in his body, this makes him happy. He doesn't deserve a medal, acclamation, awards, celebration etc for a personal decision. I get that his influence has the capability to help others who might be struggling with their identity, but I could really care less.ESPN want to give him the Author Ash award for courage!
Social media and parts of society want us to celebrate this?!
Isn't being heterosexual courageous and worthy of being celebrated?
Black is white and truth are lies and we all want to let people just "be happy".
Well said!The way I see it is that he wasn't happy in his body, this makes him happy. He doesn't deserve a medal, acclamation, awards, celebration etc for a personal decision.

To me its good he is happy. That's it.
Really good article. I've seen the documentary about the twins. It was extremely sad.Whats sad is the media and progressives want you to think this is so mainstream and there are sooooo many people out there like Bruce. The problem is its just not true. If Bruce is considered normal, guess who gets the radical extremist label? The majority of Americans that don't agree with what he's doing.
Here's an interesting little article on how this little societal experiment began long ago.

Lets see how this works out for kids over the next 30 years of same sex parents. It takes more than "happiness" and "love" to raise and model well developed functional adult.Yikes. Sorry, just can't get behind that mindset and feel that it is pretty extreme to call it "very dangerous" to the youth.
the bar keeps lowering and further devolving this species.A fitting quote from John Wesley: 'What one generation tolerates, the next generation will embrace'
That can be both a good or bad thing lolA fitting quote from John Wesley: 'What one generation tolerates, the next generation will embrace'
I was raised by same sex parents. Honestly I don't see the difference when I hang out with friends and their parents. Good parenting has no sexual orientation.Lets see how this works out for kids over the next 30 years of same sex parents. It takes more than "happiness" and "love" to raise and model well developed functional adult.
How does being lesbian or gay harm others? That's ridiculous."The surgery fixed nothing—it only masked and exacerbated deeper psychological problems."
The whole LGBT movement is very dangerous to our youth. It makes it a choice to act out on an inclination. Then that inclination can become a lifestyle because society says it's OK.
The whole "born that way" cop out is also dangerous.
I was born an alcoholic. I was born a pedophile. I was born a murderer. Yet the "born that way" doesn't apply in these instances.
All (including LGBT) harm others. Acting out on our slanted inclinations is the problem. The inclination may come naturally but consider that many do that should never be acted upon.
Where did he slander and disregard anyone?. Also for the second part I could ask you the same thing, and when did he say his values and beliefs were more important?.So passivity towards an individual using entirely legal means to improve their happiness and quality of life is more dangerous than the slandering and disregard for an entire subsection of our population?
We all have different values, and are entitled to keep them, but what makes your values and beliefs any more important than anyone else's besides them being your own?
yup and obama also cut benefits to our service men and women-the ones we should be celebrating are taking a beating at the hands of obama, while we celebrate gay and lesbianism!!!I'll keep my views on it all to myself. But I really feel we have bigger issues that should be main focus. President just declared June LGBT month and I feel that stuff like taking better care of our veterans is more important.
whats going to be legal next? Legal doesn't mean I have to value it or agree.So passivity towards an individual using entirely legal means to improve their happiness and quality of life is more dangerous than the slandering and disregard for an entire subsection of our population?

theres a time to tolerate and accept and a time to rebuke and condemn. There's a time to love and a time to hate.Oh it goes beyond that. Mr Dunn would like us to believe that tolerance and acceptance is actually a bad thing and that it is going to be a big problem in the future. Because intolerance and hate has served us so well and is what we want to continue. Hey, when you don't agree just spew doomsday hyperbole.
acceptance is one thing, approval is quite another. i can accept the fact that there are many behaviors that i personally don't approve of, if i choose to believe a free for all lifestyle is bad for this country that is my choice. are you going to deny me that choice just because anything goes happens to be popular at the moment?To say acceptance of this choice and belief system devolves society sure seems slanderous to me. Calling it acting on impulse also reduces it to something like a tattoo as opposed to a lifelong internal struggle to find happiness and acceptance.
He didn't say they were any more important, but implying the other point of view is ruining society sure makes it seem like a right versus wrong add opposed to open minded discussion.
it would cause me to go insane if i didn't acknowledge that behavior i am not going to approve of is going to exist....young people have always tried to be radical, it is the nature of things. it is also the nature of things for older adults to uphold standards and values....i don't blame the younger generation for wanting to be rebellious and change things....i blame the mess this country is in on my generation for not accepting our responsibilty as the standardbearers and maintaining the order of things the way our parents did and their parents before them.....I completely agree with everything you said bigt. Nobody was pushing for approval. I actually agree that it doesn't need to be celebrated. However, you're allowing for acceptance while Mr. Dunn clearly stated that tolerance, not agreement or celebration, was overrated. I would argue being tolerant of other humans and trying to help/understand them is far more beneficial to not only them, but society as a whole.
It is, generally, the nature of the older generation to be averse to change. This is no different than the civil rights movement. The younger generation is more willing to accept a person without regard to race, gender, or sexual orientation.it would cause me to go insane if i didn't acknowledge that behavior i am not going to approve of is going to exist....young people have always tried to be radical, it is the nature of things. it is also the nature of things for older adults to uphold standards and values....i don't blame the younger generation for wanting to be rebellious and change things....i blame the mess this country is in on my generation for not accepting our responsibilty as the standardbearers and maintaining the order of things the way our parents did and their parents before them.....
baby boomers of which i am one have totally failed this country, imo.
