There are, but they're all filled with creepy weirdos

you chose to make it a source of pain

I'm not whining: I'm posting my reaction to this story that happens to be about trans people (which I am) and how even though it's a positive story for everyone else, for me it's a source of pain.

I'm sorry that my pain is such an inconvenience for your sanitized worldview.

TBQH, it makes me feel even more hopeless that other people have this problem even *without* the scarlet T pinned to their chests.

I guess this is the sort of thing that's supposed to fill me with hope, but it just makes me sadder... because I know it's never going to happen to me =/

"Mr. and Mrs. prodiGal, it's a boy!"

If this kind of struck a nerve deep down for you, then picture feeling that way for basically every part of your existence instead of just shaving leg hair... and that's what it's like to be a trans woman. More or less.

Ah okay, I read it quickly and thought you were saying the opposite.

don't really think of myself as female, just as I don't think of myself as cisgender or as FAAB.

What's the matter, Ru? Not making enough money by exploiting hilarious transphobic puns like "she-mail?"

MY HUSBAND IS A COMMUNIST!!!

There's a trans woman of color by the name of Ashley Love who has used the term "trans face" similar situations.

Based on his defense of playing the role, it sounds like he might be one of those people who does not really get that there is a difference between trans people and gay people.

I read it, and I have 2 thoughts:

Then why do I as a trans woman have much wider hips than pretty much every single model out there, despite being the same height?

I'm trans. Last time I measured, I had a 32" waist and 46" hips, so Tim Gunn can kiss my giant, shapely ass.

My takeaway: what the hell is a financial therapist?

It rubs the soil on its skin or else it gets Satan again!

Look sharp, Teddy!
