dave P: If this is true.smh
can they change the hormones and how they r secreted?they can only change the organs ba?not to talk of the way she (is it he nw)reasons. Stupidity exists in the camp of fools!

My Response:
Man, don't undermine the great extents at which science has gotten to today as regards alterations to human gender/sexuality. There is what they call pre-op transsexuals and post-op transsexualism... for clear understanding, google the subject matter, since here and now is not the time to pose explicit explanations.

Apart from changing the hormones, they can also completely change the physiology of the individual to his/her preferred gender. It takes a long process of evolution, but in the long run, the result is achieved. Hormonal re-constructional pills are available for sale in stores across US, South america, Asia and even online (you can check ebay/amazon), as well as several sex change doctors across the world. Thailand has the highest population of transgenders in the world, followed by Brazil, US, Italy. These people live freely and are comfortable in the prefered gender.

I'm not in anyway promoting intimate alterations, but we all must accept the imperfections in nature are always there. That an individual is biologically born of a particular sex does not mean the individual is a prototype to that gender. Nature has complexity variances that affect the general altitude to realities at large. The intimate organs do not serve as rigid reason to claim a intimate gender. Masculinity/femininity cut across every human person, be it male or female(there is an opposite gender behaviour in each person). How come we have men who look and behave like the opposite gender; and women who do the same as well? How come most men have facial hair while some don't? How come there could be cases of children born with more than 2 hands/legs?... all these point out the imperfections in nature that science can correct.

It amazes me that while men/women work their a55 off in some parts of the world, carrying out researches on how to better the human world, many of us languish here and kill ourselves over petty things(residual politicking and religious inclinations). Science rules anytime anyday!

Opinion...Re: I Just Found Out My Fiance Is Not Circumsized.

Nigerians sha! What would you have said if he had no d..ick at all? Its here we take all these things seriously. Even the oyibo people that initiated the idea of male circumcision to us no longer practice it, as with many christian practices they left us. Many consider it an abuse of a child's choice to choose to cut off or leave the foreskin. There are many human rights groups in the western world that fight against male circumcision; you can google it.

It would surprise you that over 68% of Europeans and Americans combined are uncircumcised. Even many parts of Asia and the Jews themselves. Male circumcision is so old school; only rigidly upheld by Africans.

Opinion: Kano Emirship: Sanusi’s Many Frustrations.

The death of Emir of Kano, Ado Bayero, to others is celebration while others are in pains. Born 83 years ago, on July 25, 1930, Mr. Bayero was appointed Emir on October 22, 1963. He was a former Nigerian ambassador to Senegal. His father, Abdullahi Bayero, also reigned as Emir for 27 years. Ado Bayero is the Emir of Kano and the son of Abdullahi Bayero, the former emir, who reigned for 27 years. Muhammadu Sanusi who was Ado Bayero's half-brother ruled after their father from 1953-1963. Following his dethronement in 1963, Muhammadu Inuwa ruled only for three months. After his death, Ado Bayero ascended the throne in October 1963. Bayero is one of the longest-serving emirs in the emirate's history.

Facts About Boko Haram That Will Change Your Perception.

A few reasons why Boko Haram gained the upper hand over Nigeria and some facts about Boko Haram - By: Jasper Azuatalam - May 2, 2014.

1. The government misunderstood Boko Harram to be a Northern conspiracy against a South-South president. They forget that the first uprising was in 2009 when Yar'Adua was still president. It may be too late for us to wait to find out after a South-south president, when Boko Haram would not stop their attacks.

2. Boko Haram was underestimated by Nigeria and her government; many facts pointed to that and one of which is the attempted negotiation with the sect.

3. Our security men on the field are not well motivated to fight the sect and they do not trust the government to be void of complacency.

4. Corruption and insincerity on the part of the government in the fight against Boko Haram.

Facts that we must accept to begin an effective war against Boko Haram:
a. Boko Harram is a terror organization and one of the tactics of every terror organization is deceit. They trick their targets with false claims so they do not understand their true nature and origin, so the fight against them can either be impossible or difficult.

b. Terrorist organizations do not dialogue, though they may pretend to in an attempt to deceive their target.

c. Terrorists have only one goal and that is to cause terror. Their satisfaction is in killing, maiming, and causing pain to their target.

d. Terrorists have no religious or tribal loyalties. When they pretend to do, they only aim to deceive their target and gain an upper hand.

e. One of the weapons of terrorism is to cause disunity among their target and weaken their resistance.

f. The same way we have international NGOs and organizations who are investing money to make the world a better place is the same way we have international terrorists that are investing their money to make the world a bitter place and terrorize humans.

g. International terrorists are investing in Boko Harram and causing terror in Nigeria.

h. Boko Harram has declared war against Nigeria and the only way to stop them is to unite and fight back
we must diagnose our sickness and identify it before we get a cure. It is dangerous to have Typhoid fever and be treating malaria.

To an ordinary Southerner, Boko Haram is the creation of northern elites to make the Jonathan's administration ungovernable. To an ordinary Northerner, Boko Haram is the creation of the Jonathan-led government in order to decimate the population of northerners and to destroy their economy. But to Boko Haram there is no distinction between northerner and southerner or Muslim and Christians. Their goal is to cause terror and their target knows no such bounds.

Those who are asking the government for money to talk to Boko Haram over dialogue are just trying to take advantage of our pains to exploit the government and the people. There is nothing to talk about. Boko Haram is a terrorist group. The only thing we can do is to stop them.
