Flamboyant gay man does not equal drag queen. Drag queen does not equal trans woman. You’ve got a hell of a lot to learn.

It doesn’t bother me at all, as long as you don’t frame it as having those experiences and anatomical parts being necessary to being a woman. Or as their absence excluding you from the Nation of Woman. We may have gotten here through a different path, but we’re here now.

He can reclaim it for himself; that’s fine. Not for anyone else without their permission. It’s exactly how I feel about the T-word for trans people. You want to call yourself that? Great. Don’t use it for me. If you do, you’re a fucking asshole.

Jekabpils is either a troll or a filthy, stinking bigot. Or both. Ignore them.

Of course an accusation is evidence, you dolt — eyewitness evidence; the best kind! If you’re robbed on the street and identify your attacker, that’s not evidence?

He’s a piece of shit as a human being, and from the few episodes I saw I thought his performance as a trans woman was pretty bad.

His side? He’s a fucking liar if he’s saying he wasn’t asked to explain what happened. Too bad he’s got no explanation, except for “gee, I’m sorry if they misinterpreted my intentions when I rubbed my erect penis against their bodies. I was just being friendly!”

“You’re fired!,” she said to her hamster as it swirled down the toilet.

Nobody forced her. That’s asinine. Also: do you even know what “euthanized” means?

Right. “If someone told you to jump off the Empire State Building, would you do it?” is getting a little tired as a standard parental hypothetical. Let’s replace it with this.

Right. A live hamster does not equal a dead goldfish.

Same here, every time I step on my cat’s tail accidentally (I swear he knows how to put it under my foot as it’s coming down). I always apologize profusely, as ridiculous as that sounds. Why couldn’t she have at least tried to give the hamster away? Or take a bus?

I don’t know, maybe someone who spews deliberately vicious propaganda about trans women for 40 years, and actually went to great lengths to have one who was a fellow of a women’s college lose her position deserves to be criticized?

You’re wrong. Anyone on a NY radio station who said anything like that would be fired the next day. Unlike in a shithole city like Boston.

The person two cars in front of her did stop suddenly to make a turn, and Caitlyn didn’t stop fast enough to avoid hitting the car in front of her. She wasn’t speeding or driving while distracted or impaired, but it wouldn’t surprise me if she was tailgating a little bit.

His?

Yes, I think it’s true. But certainly by the time I was a child in the 1960s, I never heard anything other than “tiger.” I didn’t learn about the original version until much later.

Good luck!

Until a few months ago, I was unemployed for a three-year period beginning when I was 58. I think my age was a worse handicap in looking for a job than my trans history. Ageism is real, and it only gets worse. (I wish I could convey more optimism, but the experience is still too raw for me.)

The supposed Roman census, as someone pointed out, never happened — there wasn’t one at that time, they didn’t measure individuals anyway, and they most certainly didn’t require people to go to their birthplace.
