MissC,
In your original self-styled rant, as in a previous post, you asked for a logical response. How can you expect that when your own posts lack logic? They are text book examples of the undistributed middle. You use the OP's citation of an article (relying by the way on very old data from a time when attitudes and practice relating to transsexualism were very different, and which itself illogically postulates on the basis of that data that at least most SRS is still unjustified), as your own justification for a rant complaining against government funding of medical services for people's TS issues, whereas the source of funding is not I think even mentioned by the OP nor is the propriety of government funding, although such funding is mentioned in passing, any actual part of the thesis of the article. I do think that you should use your own threads and not other peoples' as vehicles for expression of forceful opinions or rants on subjects without logical connection to those of the threads which you hijack.
