Political correctness running amok
Posted on | August 22, 2013 | 5 Comments
We are seeing the push for political correctness at the expense of common sense at its’ height and it destroys lives.
Today Bradley Manning announced that he wants to live his life as a woman and wants to undergo gender transformation surgery. We are told that we have to rush into accepting it, call him “Chelsea” instead of Bradley, welcome an opportunity to give away our hard earned tax payer dollars for a doctor to cut off Bradley Manning’s penis and build some concoction resembling female reproductive organs and applaud this “advancement”.
Please, read below a wiki bio of a writer Mike Penner, who suddenly in 2007 decided that he is a woman, lived for a year as a woman, then went back to being a man and a year later committed suicide. There are a number of examples like these.
Recently there was a short article in the local papers about a man who tried to cut of his arm, he was stopped and send to a psychiatric hospital, but when a man wants a doctor to cut off his penis, we have to applaud it, see it as a great civil rights achievement and foot the bill for it. Really??? I don’t think so.
Recently I talked to a friend of mine, an internal medicine doctor, who mentioned that in her practice she often saw low Testosterone levels in gay men, however nobody would talk about it, is is is not politically correct. Imagine if we would be told that it is not politically correct to talk about low insulin level in diabetic patients. Would you think this is ok?
Nobody is talking about the statistics showing higher incidence of drug abuse, alcohol abuse, suicides, spousal abuse, shorter life span, higher per capita incidence of AIDS, Caposi sarcoma, atrophy of anal sphincter and incontinence (inability to hold feces) among gay men. It is not politically correct to talk about it. This political correctness ruins many lives and first and foremost lives of many men and women, who might suffer from low hormonal levels, from psychological problems, from low self esteem, from a myriad of other problems which can be addressed and have to be addressed before accepting and applauding what Bradley Manning is trying to do.
We live today in a society, where the truth is the pariah. It is not politically correct to talk about the fact that the person in the WH is using fabricated IDs and a stolen Social Security number. It is not politically correct to talk about the fact that this man and the Secretary of Treasury are fabricating reports of our National debt. It is not politically correct to talk about judges covering up falsification of transcripts by reporters, who manipulate dockets, cover up crimes. It is not politically correct to talk about the corruption in the judiciary.
It is time to speak of what is factually correct, not politically correct.

Here’s what makes no sense about this. This guy is as queer as Obama so why would he want to spend his time in a women’s prison? Go figure!!
