It is like no one (especially in the perpetually myopic New "Left") has ever seen a stage magician do sleight of mind.

You're mixing up your metaphors, it is sleight of hand not sleight of mind. Yes sleight of hand works because of theory of mind and sometimes people forget to shift to dozens of perspectives around the room and not get attentionally locked.

He's not a RINO. Just built his career on being independent-minded.

I also like that study because it uses correct terminology: transsexual, sex-reassigned.

Gender has had a non-grammatical meaning since the 1950s, and you know it.

Not bullshit. The rate decreases. It is still elevated relative to the general population.

Sloppy wording on my part. Transition is currently the most effective known cure.

Yes, but that just argues against transsexuals in the military either way

Yes, and I don't feel particularly strongly about the current fiasco for that reason.

The argument is that transition corrects the dysfunction of gender dysphoria.
