Nor is everything a black and white issue. Gender is quite nuanced; in fact I doubt that you'll find anyone who conforms perfectly to societies standard of their gender, or even get a consensus on what those standards *are*.

More to the point, in what way does it affect you if someone else has a sex change, or marries a member of the same sex. You may not *like* it, but then, you aren't going to be required to *do* it, either. There are plenty of things I find distasteful...lima beans, for instance..., but that dosen't mean I'm going to persecute people that like them.
