More online investigation than onsite exploration these days.

This isn't actually interesting, sorry. Also it's not politically correct. Fuck off.

What the fuck is this supposed to mean?

The brunette beauty, who was assigned male at birth, began to transition to female when she was six years old
By "assigned male" I assume they mean "had a penis". How exactly does a six year old "transition to female" of their own cognizance? I'd be willing to wager that no six year old on the fucking planet has ever decided by themselves to "transition" to another gender. Congratulations to the parents for exploiting their juvenile child for profit.

If that would have been my kid the first time I caught him playing with dolls or some shit I would have beat his ass and made him kill something.

Yeah pretty much.

Thing is, this kid doesn't even know what it's like to be a man yet. And here he is, his parents parading him around as the "role model for women"..

I'm pretty open minded these days. Live and let live. But you probably should grow up a little first before you decide you're going to "transition". 6 years old is probably a bit early.....

If that kid gets to be like 18 and decides being a dude isn't for him, then ok sure do whatever you want. I think it's weird (and never convincing; Bruce Jenner is one ugly bitch) but I don't really give a shit as long as it doesn't affect me. Pursuit of happiness and all that.

But anyway that's enough social commentary for me. Time to go back to completely ignoring pop culture again.

Normally they only use the phrase, "assigned male at birth" if she's a hermaphrodite, in which case she has both sex organs. It really would be up in the air as to what gender she/he really is, and the male assignment would have been a choice of the parents. Apparently, there are more possibilities than just XX and XY. There's XXY and XX/XY as well.

Actually XXY isn't an "assigned male at birth" type of thing. Those peeps only have male parts. It's called Klinefelter's Syndrome. It can happen to anyone, cause it's caused by a genetic abnormality where the genes don't split correctly. You can only know for sure that you have Klinefelter's if you take a costly genetics test.


Edit: I guess the non-Klinefelter XXY would be what you are talking about.

I think an upgrade from all currently supported OSes, so 7 and up.

Anybody want to buy a flamethrower?
