It's just occurred to me that things famously Straussian
seem to have a recurrent azure theme i.e., blue jeans

Sexual Orientation
Consider:
1) It *is* health-related. It is a medically recognized, and
curable, dysfunction.
2) Generally, anything that helps break with the old life and
give a fresh start in a new and better life improves the chances for
rehabilitation.
3) There certainly is an administrative problem of where to
slot the transexuals--neither men's nor women's prison is appropriate.
The operation will solve that difficulty.
4) Transexuals are very likely to be abused by the other
prisoners, particularly if they've already

Er, make that want us to see I don't particularly care what you think of me, either. <Shrug>
You do know, of course, that there are others besides "the likes
of" me who read this echo. Wouldn't you care that they, at least, see
for themselves?
And I showed that it was not just my opinion by quoting the

1) It doesn't make any more sense to say that ancient Egypt
was "Black" than it does to say that the United States is "Black."
Their black population was concentrated in Upper Egypt.
2) Greece was in contact with several other civilizations
besides Egypt. The Minoan civilization (Crete) was much more
influential on the Mycenaean Greeks than Egypt. A comparison of
religion, alphabet, social structure, etc. shows radical differences
between Greece and Egypt.

Facts.
This was a British humor schtick long before them.
As entertainers, you mean? For one thing, it's an easy way
to get laughs.
So did the Babylonians, Turkish women had harem pants, etc.,

I don't know of any culture where women wore codpieces, however.
Eh? Sexual preference and sexual orientation are pretty
synonymous terms.
