Well, personally, I find plastic surgery for no medical reason, piercing and tattooing to be more desecrations than I do sex change operations. Right below that for me would be drug use, smoking and imbiding alcohol to extremes, and they're still more "desecrations" than a sex change operation. (Strictly my opinion here, gang, and I'd never attempt to convince you I'm right.)
In sex change operations, there is a psychological gender issue. For example, you may have been born a man physically, but psychologically you never accepted it. It requires all sorts of counseling to get a gender changed performed, dedication, money, and effort. You have to take hormones for the rest of your life, and that's not cheap.
Personally, I can't imagine undergoing one. However, I don't see it as any more of a desecration than the aforementioned piercings and tats or plastic surgery.

Is repairing a harelip, or a clubfoot, 'morally wrong'?
'sex change' operations are part of the treatment for a congenital neurophysiological condition; Benjamin's syndrome, or transsexualism, as it's known to laypeople. It's a very distressing condition that causes severe psychological pain to it's sufferers. Untreated, more than half of those afflicted with it will die before their thirtieth birthday; the treatment is 98% effective at allowing people to live normal, happy, healthy lives.
It's surely more 'morally wrong' NOT to treat such a condition, than to treat it?
For Marilyn; if no-one changed 'the way God made them', anyone who's ever had appendicitis, or diabetes, or any other illness or medical condition, would probably have died. if your God didn't intend us to treat medical conditions, He wouldn't have given us the knowledge and tools to do so.

No, I don't, unless it's just a fad for them.
I know a person who was born a hermaphrodite and was raised as an only son, but he always felt like a woman. His wife never conceived because of his low sperm count. and they were both unhappy. He finally told his wife how he felt, and she loved him enough to encourage him, made appointments with doctors and accompanied him to them, went into couples counseling, and they're both very very happy again. He's on hormones and lives and works full time as a woman now, and is planning the sex change for next year. I see nothing wrong with a truly transgendered person having an operation provided they've gone through all the diagnostic tests, and had the proper medical and psychiatric treatment to be able to deal with it, as s/he has.
I strongly disaprove of those who decide it for themselves, order internet drugs, and do nothing but fantasize about it with friends who are equally lacking in common sense. It's not trifling, it's not a game, and you can die trying. Many seem to lose sight of that.

Do YOU think it is morally wrong to judge other people with an incomplete understanding of the issues distressing them or the aetiology of their condition; OR to post such bigotted opinions in the form of a rhetoric question on a public forum such as Yahoo?
Grow up you Nazi.

Is an abomination. Persons who change their sex, they change the way God made them, they never accept it. Probably in their next life they will become the same sex they reject it.

If you are asking is it morally wrong in the eyes of man or God. For the human man nothing is morally wrong, but God made man in His image, not mans image, it's wrong period.Until man knows God he will not change.

No. Telling other people how to live is morally wrong.

I think to each his/her own. BUT I gotta be honest. If I ever got in bed with a woman and later found out that it was a guy who had the sex change thing, well someone is gonna get hurt.
