So much going on in the world today. I see different stories and think I should blog about that, but then I find an excuse of why I shouldn’t take the five minutes to write my thoughts out. The three people that read this blog somehow make it thru their day without my words of wisdom, but I know it is tough on them. I follow the news closely for the most part, but I’ve separated myself from politics as it was making me too old to fast. The 2016 race is already underway and I simply don’t have it in me to give a fuck just yet.
I’m not going to get political today or at least I don’t have intentions on it anyway. I did however see an article on Facebook about Transability people. As a farm boy from Wisconsin/Iowa I grew up with a particular way of thinking. There is man and there is woman. Man bangs woman and makes little people. Seems simple enough. Well now its 2015 and simple is just not part of the conversation anymore. Its all about gay this and gay that. I personally don’t care who you sleep with as long as it is consensual and among adults. Then there is the whole gay marriage thing which I was very much against for a long time. I’ve changed my views on this in the last couple years simply because I believe that whatever you do on Earth is your business. If there is a being that judges us after our physical bodies die, then so be it. I’m not him so I’m not judging.
Bruce Jenner is now called Caitlyn. Great. He was a man and now he wants to be a woman. Everyone is cheering in the streets and he is being hoisted up as a hero. I don’t know about all that, but again who am I to judge. Do I think it is weird?? Your damn right I do. I don’t get it because I’m not a homosexual or a woman trapped in a mans body so it is weird to me. Anyone that says it isn’t to them is lying and afraid of the PC police crashing their door in calling them a bigot. My door is unlocked and I don’t give a fuck what anyone calls me. I make no apologies for being myself.
Bringing us to the next chapter the transability people. These are people that feel like they should be disabled, but unfortunately their bodies work just fine. Yep these poor bastards have two working arms, two working legs, and everything else is A-okay. My heart goes out to them. What do they do?? Apparently they stage accidents in hopes of becoming amputees or in the best case scenario become paralyzed. How am I going to accept Caitlyn with open arms, but want to punch these other assholes in the throat. Is there really a difference??
So I struggle. Not with the transgender thing as again I’m not here to judge, but I can admit I think it is weird. What the fuck is wrong with a person that they would want to become paralyzed?? I’d trade out in a heartbeat and never look back if they made that possible. How am I supposed to respect this person?? Honestly I don’t and I won’t feel sorry for them. I had/have to dig deep everyday to make a productive life facing the challenges I do, and to have a group of people out there hoping they can one day have this happen makes me realize they are beyond sick. They are fucking idiots. This isn’t a game.
Do we give them disability checks after they accomplish their goal?? I hate the argument about gay marriage that if we allow that then we have to allow someone to marry a cow. It is so asinine that I can’t even take the conversation seriously, but here we are. Who the fuck would have thought anyone, much less a group of people, would want to become disabled?? As someone that personally knows how mentally exhausting it is to go through something like that I can’t fathom why someone would wish for it.
Do we take this perfectly healthy person who decides to stab himself in the spine so he can be a paraplegic because that is what he sees himself as and hold him up as a hero??? As much as I hate the thought of it, I can’t separate it from having a sex change. Both are surgically modifying ones body to fit what that person mentally sees themselves as. Do they qualify for government assistance afterwards?? If you are a lazy person and want disability why not saw your arm off??
I’m not making a judgement here, I’m just putting some thoughts out there. My hope is to get others to think and discuss these matters. They are more important than DWTS or whatever reality show is popular right now. It takes a sick person to WANT these challenges I face daily. What if they decide a year from now that was a bad idea?? There is no going back.
Please let me know your thoughts.
