The Onion get bested again by reality. The New York Times reports that Jerome comes to New York, gets a taxpayer subsidized apartment and then a taxpayer subsidized sex change operation. And that's not the half of it.

Even the liberal New York Times readers are posting what appear to be mostly critical comments. Is the New York Times just trolling its readers?

Quote:Over the course of this year, Ms. Nimmons has often said she never expected to make it to 40, much less to “complete” the long, lonely journey from Jerome through Meeka (her interim name) and Magnolia Thunderpussy (her drag name) to Kricket."

That's as far as I got in the article. I don't have the stomach to read more.

Oh, it gets darker than that.

Nice, aggravating article by the USA's newspaper of record.
The taxpayer has given this dumbass named Thunderpussy so many helping hands already. This misfit should have fallen by the wayside multiple times in his life, but there's always been a safety net (including prison ironically).

It's much worse than this article portrays. Transgender surgery is actually considered tax deductible for most people in the U.S. As an example (from a U.S. Tax Court case from a few years ago), a man who felt he was a woman trapped in a male body was diagnosed with gender‐identity disorder. He tried to deduct $22,000 in medical costs for multiple surgeries, including hormone therapy, sexual‐reassignment surgeries, and breast augmentation, in order to become a woman. The IRS allowed the costs of the hormone therapy and sex‐change operation as qualified medical expenses because those procedures helped treat a disease, but they disallowed the cost of breast augmentation, saying it was nondeductible cosmetic surgery.

So basically all of those Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner's running around out there can deduct the cost of butterflying their dicks on their taxes, and it's totally legal. If the IRS treats this as as mental illness, why won't society at large?
