No it's not. The practice of sex change operations is prohibited in Sunni Islam, because that's deemed "changing the creation of God"; as in your gender is your gender, and you can't change that, God's final decision and stuff. That's in Sunni Islam. Since almost everybody is a Shiite in Iran, I'm not sure about that.
What I mean to say is that the concept itself is prohibited in Sunni Islam (the original Islam). But just because it is prohibited, doesn't mean that people will listen.

Trans people in Turkey? That's a new one for me. I thought it was dead in the regions where Muslim people live, since the idea of changing one's sex is considered a sin in the religion.

Before the Islamic Revolution in 1979, the issue of transsexuality in Iran had never been officially addressed by the government. Beginning in the mid-1980s, however, transsexual individuals were officially recognized by the government and allowed to undergo sex reassignment surgery. As of 2008, Iran carries out more sex change operations than any other nation in the world except for Thailand. The government provides up to half the cost for those needing financial assistance, and a sex change is recognised on the birth certificate.[1]

That depends on what sort of spiders they are.

They're the size of a tennis ball. I mean the body without the legs.

what the hell am i looking at?

Paint something, anything, even if just a singular Scrap Thrall.

Or at least get a hold of my life, that works too.

But Korra was never mature.

Who said Korra was mature?

The ending was more ambiguous than anything with any character relationships with Korra/Mako/Asami. I really didn't see the lesbian connection, but I can certainly see where people might get the idea.  Kinda reminds me of the whole Akuroku thing.
