no i'm not purposely trying to disrespect anybody i'm talking about the news in general it's not a big deal now if we were to look at an actual man who was born a man named dr.lee carrying a child right now, then that would be something.so if the person took it out of context my bad no disrespect.

My dear sister Kisha, if you call a tail a leg, how may legs would a dog have? If you answered 5, your answer is wrong. The answer is 4, calling a tail a leg does not make it a leg. Likewise calling a woman a man does not make her a man.

That's fine. So call a woman a man if that's what "she" prefers. "She" is obviously going to great lengths to become more like a man.

The bottom line cc, is that a person's gender is determined by their DNA. Until she can change her XX crhomosomes to XY chromosomes she will always be a woman. No matter what lengths she goes to, the best she can become is a male impersonator.

I don't think anybody is disagreeing with that. Now, since none of us are doctors trying to match organs, I don't see an issue with referring to this person as a "he".
