I think that is part of it. Most folks that hate gay folks really focus on gay men, not lesbians. Trans men often get confused with more masculine of center lesbians until we flip over that line with the testosterone. Nobody really sees us, and the media doesn’t find us half as interesting.

These folks like to pretend we don’t exist. I had a very mormon dude come up with this crap to me at my last job. I reminded him I am a transgender man, and that I’d be more than happy to take my middle aged, bearded, tattooed self into the ladies room with his daughter, if he was worried about trans women. Somehow he…

I used to work with this woman that was seriously proud of how often she called the cops on people. I always asked her the race of the people she called the cops on, and it was never white. She stopped telling me those stories because I kept asking.

I pay attention to things like this for that reason. However, I’m not sure I’d want to be on anti-rejection meds my entire life for that. It looks like you have to have the rudimentary bits of penis in the base, with the corpora, and we don’t necessarily have much of that with just testosterone treatment. I think it…

Good to know!

I’m an accountant. Rich people are just as dumb, and just as clueless as to how loans work as poor people. The difference are that those with more financial means can recover better to bad financial decisions and have more of a financial buffer.

I really appreciate Jezebel’s coverage of the porn industries issues, and problems like this. I like to watch porn, but I don’t want to partake of any form of porn where the actresses felt coerced or unsafe in anyway. These articles let me run out all works by folks that do transgress the actresses boundaries.

Quite a lot of young men missed that memo and took it for a glorification of violence.

Thank you for writing this. Although your experiences are different than mine, as a transgender man that has been sexually assaulted, they are also so damn familiar.

I hated watching them because you just knew they were capable designers, but instead they would just mess up someone’s house. I’m with you on that.

I’m totally for a version of Trafi g Spaces that doesn’t fuck up peoples houses. Towards the end I stopped watching it because gluing hay and flowers to walks and installing toilets as art were pretty adversarial and shitty.

I would watch the hell out off a gender swapped Weird Science as long as it had a really good smart script that kept women’s experiences at the forefront.

I think you could do it differently. Two girls in already poor relationships get a hot dude that supports them in their personal growth and decisions as young women.

We had people go there, and that was my first official job act to tell them no fucking way. The last thing I need is to be telling my husband I love him on the phone, then have some asshole tip me off to security like what happened to that gay Brit in Morocco.

Don’t go unless you have to.

OMG! Right???? That’s why I even went to the website, and then I was totally annoyed because that woman is beautiful, and there is no way she’d fit the sizing they have.

I was intrigued until I saw they only went up to an XL. Bleah.

I pay serious attention to the estimated arrival times these days. It keeps this from happening unless it goes through the USPS. Those jerks always mark my packages as delivered, and the damn package comes a day or two later.

I know nothing about guns, but one of my first patients in my clinical rounds as a nurse was a big biker guy who stuffed his pistol into his waistband like that. He was surprisingly upbeat about shooting himself.

I think the commenters that are rabidly anti crying, don’t get a key fact. Some folks just can’t stop it. It’s how their body interprets emotion.
