1. Please go back and re-read what I wrote.

2. I never claimed to be a transwoman or even a transman. I simply stated the facts about transsexuals. Maybe I have a relative whos transitioned, maybe I work in the field, maybe I have a good friend, and maybe I am a transman.

3. Yes, I am a transman, and guess what? The only people that actually know I've transitioned are the ones I've told. In fact there have been a few times Ive been open with people and told them and they've laughed and thought I was joking, and claimed there was no way a man as masculine as me could have been born female. So guess what? You probably allowed bias and stereotypes to play a role in your uneducated opinion.

4. It has been very rare that I've heard of anyone really concealing their birth genders from their partners.

5. There was no 'poor me' in the post I wrote. There certainly is self victimization going on by those who claim to be 'so haunted' by the fact that they knew or possibly dated a transsexual.

6. I recognize that you will read into my post what you will. I can't change your perceptions, but I will have you know Im as much of a human being as you, and you have no right to put anyone down because theyre a transsexual. It's called discrimination and is as bad as making sexist comments about women or racial comments against other ethnicities.

Educated or uneducated, everybody has right to their opinions, provided they do not impose them on others. Guess what: To demand to be seen as a person of the opposite sex when you aren't, is imposing your opinion on others. Then, you shouldn't complain if they react to it.


It has been very rare that I've heard of anyone really concealing their birth genders from their partners.

I certainly hope so. Because somebody who does it should be called a rapist.


There certainly is self victimization going on by those who claim to be 'so haunted' by the fact that they knew or possibly dated a transsexual.

I notice you put "so haunted" in quotes, as if this feeling were somehow invalid. How come you dismiss heterosexual people's feelings while at the same time demand that they take your own feelings in account?


you have no right to put anyone down because theyre a transsexual.

And you have no right to put anyone down because they don't date transexuals.


It's called discrimination and is as bad as making sexist comments about women or racial comments against other ethnicities.

So "not dating someone" is now equal to "discriminating"? I suppose blonde bombshells with big tits discriminate me, then.

i think that the rape comment is very incorrect
although i do beileve trans should be upfront and honest with their sexual partner and not keep it from them because it is an important factor...but its not rape

Sorry to be politically incorrect, but I think all this transgendered stuff is a load of bull! You may have your goods cut off and take hormones to grow breasts, whatever, but you are still the gender you were born with. Plus, if you are that f***ed up to have your body mutilated you have a serious mental problem, and pretending you are now the opposite sex from which you were born (which you are NOT!) does not fix your problem.
The whole thing is stupid. We have to call a he a "she" because their brain can't handle the sex they were born with? Tough luck!

Please don’t confuse political correctness with ignorance.

hear a lot of trangendered get beaten up because they pretend to be normal.

What does that mean “pretending to be normal?” Does this mean they are trying to get equal treatment? Trying to live a normal life as whatever gender they have transformed to? Are they really being beaten up because they are trying to be something they are not or is it because our society is terrified of something we don’t understand? And where did you hear they were being beaten up for pretending to be normal anyway?

Or men who use women as a front cuz they are gay, "+ag +ags", also dispicable and fraud. I wonder if people can sue on this as personal injury?
being dishonest does not always mean fraud and I find it a little disturbing how eager you are to make a quick dollar off of it.

Gross me out! I guess I gross out too easy, but then when you are a man/god like me, it is easy to be grossed out by anything other than perfection. Everyday, I get up and kiss the mirror and thank God that there really is perfection in this world. I feel so lucky to be so perfect in everyway.

Everyone can be perfect on the internet…….especially when there is no picture provided……

Do the research? Yes, I agree. Do the research and you'll see (among other things) that a lot of homosexuality is psychological. Read some accounts of ex-gays and you'll see what I mean. But hey, that's just me being hateful, I suppose.

Or uneducated, being gay and being transgendered are not the same thing.

This person life as you can see it , it is nothing more than total confusion and comdem. this is why he did a change.
The bottom line if your religious I say run and go pray. God is watching from a distance..... One great roman general once said this : the evil that a man does liveth after them the good is often inter with their bones, so let it be with ceasur"

Why is it that if someone does not have the same belief system as you they are “confused?” What makes you right? I am agnostic, does that mean I should think YOU are confused because you believe in something that cannot be proven? To me Christianity is confusing but that does not make your right to believe in it wrong.

I certainly hope so. Because somebody who does it should be called a rapist.

Ummmm, I’m sorry……rapist? Concealing ones gender is certainly deceitful and I do not condone it but it is certainly not rape.
