, 20:15, August 19, 2007→Iran: two questions
::::::Modern Medicine has learned a lot over our history, and we're better now at curing disease than we ever have been. Just because we consider transsexuals the new lepers, does not mean we do not know now how to help, and ease their pain and suffering. Just like giving a deaf person a cocular implant so that they can hear (limitedly, but even just 10% is better than 0%). --[[User:Puellanivis|Puellanivis]] 18:16, 16 August 2007 (EDT)

:::::::Two questions: (a) what do you mean by "transexual"? Firstly, you appear to state flatly it is a "disease", whereas as I understand the term "transexual", these are some sort of man-made beings that never existed prior to about the 1950s. (b) "The Old law requirements for leprosy did little to actually prevent the spread of leprosy"; this law was primarily segregation and quarantine. And I would probably dispute this premise, so perhaps you need more of a foundation for this claim. [[User:RobS|Rob Smith]] 16:15, 19 August 2007 (EDT)
