This article is about how sports and pageants are starting to allow transgender people enter them. It discusses how Jenna Talackova started taking hormones at 14 then had a sex change at 19. Her dream has always been to compete in the Miss Universe pageant even though there are pageants specifically for transgenders and transvestites. After originally being denied Donald Trump decided to go ahead and let Jenna participate. Jenna is trying to have the rule that you have to be a "naturally born woman" removed. The rule has been dropped in alot of highschool sports. The main concern is that males who become females still have testosterone which is banned. According to Jenna there is a testosterone suppressant that they can take which will allow them to participate.
I say go for it. I don't think it should matter if they are "naturally born" or not. In the end they have made themselves women and are treated as such in every other matter. So why not let them participate in pageants as well? I personally would never get a sex change. Guys are too smelly. (Only kidding fellas.) But I say too each their own. If one of my daughters chose to have a sex change I would support her. Sure it would be difficult and confusing but I think everyone should be allowed to make their own choices.
