I think a big problem is peoples lack of information on transgender individuals. You are probably more likely to hear in a school lesson or assembly how it's ok to gay or ok to of a coloured minority, but hardly ever, if at all, hear about how it is ok to be transgender and how not to be insulting to someone who is transgender. I bet that guys friends are more cross-dressers then transgender (even though I realize transgender can take on the form cross-dressing to help the person feel more like gender they feel they are). And with the educational system doing more cut backs then anything else, it seems like it comes to individuals to educate others, even though that probably spreads misinformation too. Anyways, I hope as time goes on, people become more educated and there are less uneducated people in the world. Also, I hope you got good news about SRSFlexorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00774522146114639059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271268032641186635.post-63379063055871245602013-08-07T19:27:24.327-04:002013-08-07T19:27:24.327-04:00We do agree to debate this would be a waste of tim...We do agree to debate this would be a waste of time<br /><br />edwinablksissi_edwinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056862194855712071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271268032641186635.post-42477709981266004932013-08-06T16:50:45.363-04:002013-08-06T16:50:45.363-04:00Being told by someone that their opinion of you is...Being told by someone that their opinion of you is who you are is offensive.

I'm not goin...Hi Edwina, thanks for commenting. I'm not going to have a pissing match for which of us faces more oppression and which of us has more privilege. There is a huge difference between being TV (aka a man who sometimes wears women's clothes) and a trans woman and if you are not a trans woman we shouldn't have the debate.<br /><br /><br />I doubt you are trans, because you don't seem to get it. If you think having your identity invalidated is okay because its just opinion than it smacks of someone who hasn't had to fight tooth and nail for those identification papers, for the name, to be called as you should. Even after I voiced that, said my birth certificate said female, they continued their opinion, as you call it, that none of that matters and I'm just a man, a tranny. <br /><br />Transphobia and bigotry IS opinion, really. It is when someone holds beliefs that are wrong and hurtful and uses those beliefs to hurt people. What they did was transphobic, and you are flat out defending them.<br /><br />Martin Luther King was on about civil rights, equality. The same concepts apply here. I was using that example because it is an example many people in the community respect and get them started on thinking differently. You are viewing it as something racist. Whatevs.<br /><br />You don't understand why trans people put on profiles that they are female when they are not? That's all we need to hear from you, you don't respect trans people, who we are, our struggle, and you clearly think you are worse off in this world than we are. So you are done. K thx bye bye.<br /><br />bubblepopmeihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06695575181520163019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271268032641186635.post-29538148806372231542013-08-03T16:24:22.469-04:002013-08-03T16:24:22.469-04:00From reading your post, I don't get where the ...From reading your post, I don't get where the black man was uneducated because he gives an opinion. Now you may not like the opinion but that does not quantify the black man as uneducated or is that your feelings about black people in general. I find a lot of white people trying to justify their racism by quoting, of all people, Martin Luther King. Is that because you know your own white men are intolerant of you yet you get on here and talk of black men chasing fat white women as the ones being intolerant. <br /><br />I don't understand why trans people put on profiles that they are female when they are not. It doesn't bother me but I don't understand it. I would never try to "out" anyone but you get what you get on sites that cater to people wanting to satisfy their exhibitionist desires. Now it was silly of him to go on and on about it or the other fat white girls, as you call them. I get on chat sites and if I use a nick like blksissi, I notice white males will start messaging me with all the same scripts like they've never been with a black tv or they have always fantasize about being with a black tv or they immediately go into calling me a slut, which I view as them being racist. I really don't like to get into these racial discussions because they are pointless. I look at that black guy as someone who was just voicing an opinion. People do it all the time like white men messaging me with degrading statements. But I wouldn't get on here and complain about it with me being in a sex chat channel. I go thru way more bullshit as a black tv from white men than you go thru from black men. blksissi_edwinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14056862194855712071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7271268032641186635.post-15728991121318056212013-08-02T15:24:50.947-04:002013-08-02T15:24:50.947-04:00Miss Mei -

One would hope that in this day and age, people would be recognizing each other as individuals, with hopes, dreams, and feelings. Instead, people wallow in hate, and dish out insults and worse from the anonymity of the internet. I'm of the mind that people like those who you had to deal with will have karma bite them in their collective asses. I ask that you know there are those of us out here who celebrate life and individuality. I've only been able to chat with you briefly, but from what I have seen and read you are a wonderful, beautiful, and remarkable woman. If you wish to chat sometime, I'm still on YIM. Take care, Miss Mei.<br /><br />T. 'Mr.Cashman' Mr. Cashmannoreply@blogger.com
