* Is there any issue with responding to “I’m a woman trapped in a man’s body” with “How do you know you’re not a man trapped in a woman’s mind?”
* How should I respond to a meme that says, “God blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason God made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine—so that humanity might share in the act of creation.”
