Finally, we recognize that J'Noel has traveled a long and difficult road. J'Noel has undergone electrolysis, thermolysis, tracheal shave, hormone injections, extensive counseling, and reassignment surgery. Unfortunately, after all that, J'Noel remains a transsexual, and a male for purposes of marriage under K.S.A. 2001 Supp. 23- 101. We are not blind to the stress and pain experienced by one who is born a male but perceives oneself as a female. We recognize that there are people who do not fit neatly into the commonly recognized category of male or female, and to many life becomes an ordeal. However, the validity of J'Noel's marriage to Marshall is a question of public policy to be addressed by the legislature and not by this court.

Fuck you. Don't fcking apologize -- I'd rather you just fcking hated me.

I feel some sort of Judge Judyism statement is appropriate for the Justice Allegrucci. Like, "don't piss on my head and call it baptism". Or even, "don't stab me in the chest and call it open-heart surgery."

I really don't have anything of insight to say here...except that when I grow up I wanna be a queer superhero and save the world for gender non-conformists.

Yeah.
