Becoming a Man.
I remember watching a program about a program about a male transferring to female. He started off by getting a nose job & wearing dresses/make up. They interviewed his female co-workers and one of the points they made was that he was just acting out female stereotypes.
My wife is female - but she doesn't wear dresses or make up or the colour pink - she doesn't watch Oprah, read romance novels or cry at sad movies etc. I agree that 'gender' is in your head however I don't see the need for surgery to 'fix' anything. You shouldn't need pretend breasts & a pretend vagina so you can play act your preconceived ideas of what it means to be the opposite sex.

Do You Know Who You Are?.
"cartoon naked lady" hardly describes the cover. A stylized & 'censored" illustration appears in the top right corner - how anyone could find that offensive is beyond me.

Who Should Get the Strangercrombie Cash?.
There should be a run off. I voted for Childhaven but Country Doctor was my second choice. When it comes to substance abusers/mentally ill homeless people I have real compassion fatigue. Use the money to help a child, not an adult incapable of making good choices. You can't fix poor judgment.
