The Bee has some funny stuff. That picture though looks like an extra from "To Wong Foo..."

Cutting off one's dick and wearing lipstick doesn't transform a man into a woman - it just makes him a dickless man wearing lipstick.

Why must everyone be so afraid to speak the truth these days?

They got me. I was halfway through this, thinking they had caved, before I realized it.

Not very “Christian” humor.

More like “asshole, transphobic, anti-Christian” humor.

What point is that?
It's always awkward explaining the punch line of a joke when someone just doesn't get it.

Read the last three sentences of the Babylon Bee parody in the OP. The Babylon Bee is using satire to point out how silly the woke left has become in pretending that the trans-gender charade is reality.

It's fine if people want to lop off their genitalia and pretend to be a member of the opposite sex - - it's a free country. But I won't call a man a woman.

I know exactly what a woman is, and the person pictured in the OP (Rachel Levine) is NOT a woman - it is a man masquerading as a woman.

The Babylon Bee used satire to convey that.

It's obvious from the headline that it's supposed to be satire. But it's not interesting or funny.

It’s hilarious, and the reactions it brings from some keep the laughs rolling.

The joke's on you OP. Normal people just don't care. You can call Levine whatever you want. Nobody cares.

I wish I had a dollar for every left-wing post that proclaimed how unimportant the author found a politically problematic OP.

Things can be said in a respectful manner.

Plus it's icky and gross and they just want to creep on women in bathrooms and groom children to be pedophile victims too. Right? Lord knows everyone's sexuality is always everyone else's business, and it's always reasonable to assume the most sinister intentions possible.

Of course. That’s why Rachel Levine is a woman. Because you say others find him creepy.

Makes perfect sense. Really.
