Motive for Sex-Reassignment
I had mentioned much earlier, when we were all watching JMKarr being interviewed, that he appeared to change his facial expressions very quickly; like watching emotional collisions. Man, was that an understatement.
I get the sense that he has some conflict, with his obsessions, and his religious training/guidance. I also speculate, that he has a tremendous amount of guilt, because of this. And I am wondering, if this potential inquiry into re-assignment, might be his attempt to effect some sort of "punishment" or retrobution for what he has done. He appears to be in the mode of "confessing one's sins". And all...
Could he be trying to end this obsession, once and for all - by altering (i.e. cutting out) the source of his "desire"? After all, only little girls are "Angels and Innocent", as he named his first two twin girls (who died shorthly after birth). Very curious indeed.
I further speculate, that this religious guilt, is reinforced by his persistant claim to be affiliated with the Catholic faith. Case in point: It has been reported, that he has identified his religious affiliation, as Catholic. This religious affiliation seems to emerge, again, with his most recent job at a Thai school, and past references to Catholic/Christian schools.
Initially, I noticed the drastic change in his appearance, since the photo on his resume. I wondered if, as he began to age, it became another obsession to re-gain that young/boyish look he used to have. Remembering that this is the guy who was obsessed with young girls, and considered them to be "his peer group". However, as information continued to leak out, it would appear that he is not merely trying to make himself look more like a young boy, (by simply and attempting to reduce his body hair) and allowing his body to become very slight and as frail as an 8 year old boy.
This to me, smacks of a person who is in this freakish mode of self-mutilation, for past sins. He even has a self appointed "confessor", the journalism professor, and perhaps to a degree, Patsy R.
