Steve - When that thread started it looked like one I could get involved in..
[It's an issue me and the mrs occasionally return to discussing.
Her infant/primary school now has it's first case of a child wanting reassignment...]

But that thread too soon grew so big I couldn't face up to reading it.
Plus, I guessed all the 'usual' opinions would prevail.
So I abstained from even opening it for a look in...

I wouldn't be surprised if Sen's more conservative christian background
influenced her contributions.
If that is the case, then she should have been politely / tactfully challenged
and encouraged to take a fresh new view on the subject...
