Consider if you will what future Archaeologists would think when confronted with the skeleton of a transexual and some DNA matter. Sex would be determined purely from the physical characteristics with no thought to how the person dressed or what sex they considered themselves to be in their minds. It's really that simple I'm afraid. Sexuality does not transcend gender IMHO.

As for the evolution argument, I make that one in gest all the time and you've probably seen me do it in other threads. It's important to note that I didn't bring up evolution here first, it was brought up and I countered the ridiculous argument with this ridiculous counter. Of course homosexuality is not evolution trying to weed out dead ends, it's a wholey ridiculous argument and that was kind of the point.
Thank you for the clarification regarding the evolution stuff.

Archeologist or not, genetics or not, it comes down the whether you and I believe that gender is defined in psychological terms, physical terms, or both. I believe that the two are not mutually exclusive and they combine on a sliding scale to determine an overall gender. On the other hand, you believe that gender is determined solely on a person's biological makeup.

Agree to disagree and thank you for the food for thought.
