Someone with diabetes needs insulin. Someone who was born with the 'mind' (sorry, I really don't know what term to use, I don't mean that out of disrespect) of a women and the body of a man does not need a sex change, they want one. Not everyone in this situation wants the surgery, not everyone who is diabetic wants to take insulin, but they must take it to survive. This is probably the gist of the argument, in particular when the state (us) pays for the procedure. Bigotry is probably the least common issue.
Is what I am saying incorrect? What part of what this am I missing?
