Ok, I am probably going to take some flak for this one...
I have tried to think of 100 nice ways to say this, and will offer the disclaimer that I have a sibling who is gender dysphoric, so I am very, very sensitive to transgender issues....

Having said that, here's what I think:

Lindsey Graham (R-NC) looks and sounds like a female-to-male transsexual.



Ok, flame me, but don't tell me the thought has never crossed your mind. :nuke:

1. Karen Hughes looks like * a la "Mrs. Doubtfire"
And I think Senator Graham looks like a woman who has a man's haircut and wears a suit and tie.:)

3. I agree with you on Karen Hughes...
And thanks for not burning me on the Graham opinion. :-)

I am glad that I am not the only one who sees this. WHEW!

6. It's his face. It's eerily feminine.
I don't think you are out of line with the suggestion.

8. As are his mannerisms...
And his voice.

Just my humble opinion.

10. You may be onto something. His name is suspect, too. Lindsey.
That's sort of ambiguous.

13. Oh, I don't think he is transgender...
In the South, to be elected US Senator, your whole pedigree must be known to get elected.

I just think he looks and speaks like a woman. He might be closeted--how many Republicans do we know of who have taken staunch pro-life, anti-gay stands, only to find out that they paid for abortions or are gay themselves?

Anyway...

18. Yes...exactly!
I have a hard time digesting what he says because I find myself pondering his sexuality the whole time he speaks.

Does that make sense?

20. Yep,
if only because his party isn't known for particular friendliness toward people who've switched genders or who prefer members of their own...the potential irony, even if unfounded, is just too much.

It's like that 800-pound gorilla, but not the one that mishandles airline luggage.

23. Exactly! It's the irony of his appearance and mannerisms counterpoised
with his party's stance on GLBT issues.

2. I think he runs around the house in hawaiian print mumu's and curlers
while he waits for his nails to dry.

But that's what there is to love about him and endear him to me...now for the bad news...he's fucking taking up space Judge Saunders could be sitting in.

Oh how I can picture that!

Let me add that his eyebrows are more groomed than mine are, and I tend to mine at least every other week.

And his hands are beautiful. Might be that clear polish. :-)

but I'd be willing to consider the possibility that Graham, Frist, and Owens are all products of the secret alien interbreeding program.

40. Much like Aunt Bea's in your sig pic,
I think he floats around the house in a lovely Republican suit - he has a number of them in soft, flattering colors - complete with sensible heels, pearls, gloves and hat. And he stands in front of the mirror and pretends he's addressing the Senate or appearing on MTP as Ms. Graham.

Good call, jchild.
