A Boy Named Stacie

by JASmius



Get this pic out of your frontal lobes, peeps.  I dare you.

The accompanying story is, by contrast, completely, mundanely unsurprising:

The nation’s first openly transgender legislator in a statehouse, Stacie Laughton of New Hampshire, nee Barry C. Laughton, Jr., was arrested by Nashua police on Thursday for falsely reporting a bomb threat at the Southern New Hampshire Medical Center on February 27th. Laughton admitted the crime to police, prompting the arrest. Laughton’s admission came amidst a two-week stay at the Brattleboro Retreat, a mental health and addiction treatment facility in Vermont, for treatment of a bipolar disorder.

The story writes itself, doesn't it?

Likely to be charged her with a felony count of falsely reporting an explosive, on Thursday Laughton told the New Hampshire Union Leader, “I have had a mental illness my whole life, and I guess this was my worst break with it. I was untreated for a long time, and I didn't have medication. I wasn't trying to hurt anyone, and it was totally out of character for me. I have put a lot behind me, and I never thought I would do this in a million years.

Oh, yeah, she he it has lifelong mental illness, alright.  The punchline is that she he it won elective office.  Which, come to think of it, isn't all that surprising anymore either.

The only newsworthy item in this story?  That she he it actually resigned from the New Hampshire legislature when her his its 2008 conviction for identity fraud and fraudulent use of a credit card surfaced.  After all, even questioning her him it on anything was trannyphobic, right?

I'd say she he it has no balls, but then I suppose the surgery already took care of that.
