Well tomorrow is the big day.
I have been following along here and I think there are plenty of smart people who have responded, and plenty of people who could be smarter. I will put myself in the could be smarter camp.
I have decided to respectfully decline the invitation.
I base this decision of the fact that I do not understand why anyone would want to change their gender. I don't know if I will ever get it, and I don't care. I also think it isn't good for the young children who will be there and have to see this. There will be an 4, 8 and 10 and year old.
Anyway, people my age ( I will be 65 in 7 years) seem to agree with my position. Younger people say I am the one with the problem. I will give them a strong maybe that's true. But I really don't think so.
I'm going to respond how I "identify" and believe to be "My Truth".
I am not ready to accept this because I do not understand, I do not have one politically correct bone in my body and I have no filter.
If he/she want's to discuss this I will refer him/her to this:
