this article was a facinating read http://questioningtransphobia.wordpress.com/2008/10/25/trans-sex-ual/
and this one from the same blog i want to come back to and consider:
http://questioningtransphobia.wordpress.com/how-to-check-your-cis-privilege/
but when all is said and done, i can't handle the community i found them in.
i interpret hostility in so much of what gets said in general and sometimes to me.
whether it be a judgement in error or not on my part, i get mixed experiences at best - and often more negative - and that makes it a great struggle to intelectually and meaningfully contribute. and that isn't good for any of us involved.
i think i shall withdraw back into the cave that i live in. it's cozy, and my girl and i are happy. i like meeting people, but i can't handle the negativity and rage sometimes. and so long as the people around me are happy and content and un-offended by me and what i say or do, then that is an ok world for me to live in.
