It was once a slow creep but is now a torrent. The party that demands everyone “believe the science” now caters to a small cadre of people who insist there are more than two biological genders. Men do menstruate and are soon to be carrying their own children. This country has watched – some in horror and others with pride – as public libraries embrace drag queen story time with tender age children. But putting the prefix “trans” in front of just any old mental disorder takes acceptance too far.
The most heinous abuse of the “trans-everything” movement in today’s political climate is trans-abled: physically healthy people who are demanding mutilation. That includes amputation of healthy limbs, blinding of sited people, paralysis, and almost anything one can imagine that a healthy body possesses.
There is a scientific term for the transabled phenomena as coined by Dr. Micheal First, a researcher at Columbia University in New York. Dr. First believes thousands of people in the United States suffer from Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID). And it’s time for the medical community to consider the wishes of these inflicted people by chopping off limbs, severing spinal cords, or whatever it takes to make a psychiatric patient feel whole.
Still Not Normal – And Still Harmful
Doctors have not gotten to the point of classifying transability. Is it a mental, behavioral, or neurodevelopmental disorder? Maybe all the above. But then you have the weigh-in by philosophers Tim Bayne and Neil Levy. They say disable them – it’s what they want, because then, they won’t try and arrange accidents that could go horribly awry:
“Given that many patients will go ahead with amputations in any case and risk extensive injury or death in doing so, it might be argued that surgeons should accede to their requests, at least of those patients who they (or a competent authority) judge are likely to take matters into their own hands.”
The takeaway is why any “competent authority” would not want to address the big three: mental, behavioral, or neurodevelopmental issues. And what could possibly go wrong? If a few years down the road, the now blissfully happy trans-able –turned disabled– missing their left leg wants it back? Hmm. That presents a pickle of a problem.
So Disturbing, Other Trans People Are Mad

A few scientists, psychologist types, and medical professionals have compared the disorder to transgenderism. And that went over like a drag queen at Sunday Mass. According to academic Alexandre Baril, Transgender people have no love for the so-called transabled and see the group as “dishonest people, people who try to steal resources from the community, people who would be disrespectful by denying or fetishizing or romanticizing disability reality.”
Our precious Western Civilization cannot get much, well, weirder. Baril explains further the anguish of the transgender movement: a group that has worked hard for their slowly evolving acceptance considers this subgroup not deserving of their hard-fought place in the world.
It would seem we face a long and potentially confusing future of “trans-isms.” This mental and medical phenomenon is so beyond the scope of acceptable that only a few dare bring it up in polite society – well, except those philosophy guys; they’ll discuss just about anything. But even this “ism” may be too much for the alt-left to propagate, coddle, and abuse for political capital. But, again, that’s a definite maybe.
