Whats the difference?

My position doesn't really matter here as I am sympathetic to both sides. I can empathize with someone who has something so fundamentally wrong with them that they find the only relief in radical surgery. I can also empathize with a mother who would rather someone with such fundamental issues not be teaching her children.

What does wrankle me a bit is the seeming hypocrisy some exhibit in this and even the 'horse fucking' thread.

I accept THESE sexual oddities and you should to or you are a bigot, but THOSE other ones are wrong.

I level this as a general charge as I don't see a need to pick people out.

My point is if you have a limit as to what is acceptable, you (and I'm using the imperial you, not you specifically) should have a bit more empathy for those who perhaps have different limits.
