How can they just cut someones hair?

Even if the person was a man they should not cut his hair.

Where did they get a man suit?

I think they should postpone the funeral!

thats from the article and with the "change" being so recent the father was probably still struggling with the situation and he is probably the one who made the call to cut her hair. i dont know if her father would have ever come around to accepting his daughter but now it doesnt matter :(

 

 

the girl is gone and imo a funeral is more about the family/friends saying goodbye but what do you say to a father who for the majority of his life has had a son and only recently had that changed into a daughter? maybe this was his chance to say goodbye to his son and maybe its possible that they actually could postpone the funeral and change her back to herself for a sort of second funeral so everyone can say goodbye to her/him.

I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it.

I'm sure many an atheist has been given a traditional Christian funeral violating their beliefs in the same way. Once you're dead, you fall into the hands of your closest kin.

Disgusting.

 

Parents (in combination with the Church) can be such blind monsters. It's shocking how someone who is supposed to be your rock of support can hurt you so much.

We still have a long way to go until we reach full equality and tolerance.

did she have the surgery?maybe whoever the person is who works at the mortuary  just saw a dead person with a penis and was confused. seriously though if you're a worker at a funeral home and you get a body with a penis, long hair and maybe some painted nails what do you do? did they call up the dad and ask what to do and he told them to cut her hair and all that?

 

:duck:

It was the father's decision.

 

She had been living openly as a woman for several years.
