Chastity Becomes Chaz

I saw a clip about Chastity Bono, that cute little blonde kid of the ‘70’s, talking about undergoing a sex change over the next few years. Chastity is now known as “Chaz,” and seemed very comfortable in his skin. After seeing him light up with happiness during the interview, I cannot understand how anyone would have a problem with this, but they did. The interview on GMA started a firestorm of comments on ABC’s message board. From people saying he had a mental “disease” to those who said he was offending God, the opinions flew. Now here is mine.

First of all, no one knows what God thinks and should not put their views of the deity on the rest of the reading public. Second, if he’s not hurting anyone and feels better about himself, what do the naysayers care? It’s as if they are so insecure about themselves or their own lives that they have to bash other people who are making positive changes for themselves. To these people I say the following:

Get a life, get a clue, and get off the message boards. You are taking up space that can be spent on intelligent conversation and debate.
