Update: September 24, 2015
Turmoil is now brewing over transgender persons using gender-specific
restrooms and locker rooms, yet not every facility is financially or
structurally able to construct a separate unisex area. Some individuals don’t want to be forced to
use a particular area, but isn’t that what makes us civilized?

in understanding)
According to Wikipedia,
Transgender is defined as: People who experience a mismatch between their
gender identity or gender expression and their assigned sex. Since Bruce Jenner has come out as Caitlyn
Jenner, there are more and more transgender individuals that have openly
submerged to the top of some controversy.
Transgender people are very recognizable (as are crossdressers)
unlike some people who consider themselves to be ‘gay’. How would you accept a transgender person
coming into a gender-specific sauna, shower room or public restroom that you
were occupying, and there were no individual stalls?

In February of this year, a national news agency reported
that a Michigan woman lost her gym membership over the ‘inappropriate’ manner
in which she complained about a transgender woman in the locker room. She wanted to know why there was a man in the
women's locker room. To her, he looked
like a man with male parts, and that's what stopped her. She was uncomfortable with him, as a male, in
her locker room and restroom. The
facility has committed to creating a non-intimidating, welcoming environment
for their members. Their gender identity
nondiscrimination policy states that members and guests may use all gym
facilities based on their sincere self-reported gender identity.

| Lila Perry |
Around September 2015 another news source reported a dispute
erupted after a transgender student (a male who identifies themselves as female)
began using female facilities at Hillsboro High School in Missouri. High school senior Lila Perry said that she
wanted to fit in with the rest of the girls, so she started using the girls’
bathroom and locker room. Parents said
their daughters were uncomfortable, because even though Perry wears dresses and
a wig, she is still physically a male.
After a school protest Lila decided that she didn’t want to use the
‘gender neutral bathroom’ that is an option at the school.
Once an individual completes the transition of change, how
would a potential straight partner react once an intimate exchange is
established? Would they flip-out or
understand the deceit that the transgendered has brought to the relationship? A woman can identify another woman just as a
man can recognize another man, despite cosmetic implications.
God does not make a mistake.
When He created individuals, He was not confused. He made them either male or female. As taught in many Catholic Schools, from the Baltimore
Catechism, the first two questions and answers are as follows: Who made
us? God made us. Who is God?
God is the Supreme Being who made all things. If God is the Creator, than He chose what
gender He placed in each individual.
This is not a ‘bashing’ post, nonetheless, since the subject
keeps coming up in the news and on TV shows; it needs to be addressed. We are to love individuals despite whether
they may have decided to change their original nature (male/female), yet we do
not have to love the sin-nature which they have chosen.
And one more thing: To Whom It May Concern, Christians are
taking back “The Rainbow” because it’s God’s promise made to mankind who
believe on His Word.
