The first transgender Barbie doll has been launched to highlight the importance of "acceptance at every age".

What, if any, are your thoughts?

The thing about progress is that, just like evolution and science and technology, it is inexorable.

Sometimes people will stand in front of it, and sometimes they will even try to push it backwards but it always continues.

It is believed that man first inhabited the earth 2 million years ago. In those 2 million years mankind has evolved, but a man in all that time has never been able to become a woman and never will.

I posted "It is believed....." It is a fact though that a man cannot become a woman as the evolution of man kind has shown.
