You can rationalize it anyway you want, but at the end of the day, you have one brain and one body, and whether or not you only have sex with men as a woman and women as a man, that makes you...

The answer I think is simple -
Attraction to men is probably based on perceived reciprocal male attraction to the CD.
What they are really looking for is attention and validation.
...
We don't even know that this really happened. Boasting about winning anything is poor sportsmanship any way you look at it. I didn't get that impression, maybe naturally bemused and perhaps still...
See this is where it gets really simple. The burden of proof here is on you to prove that the OP is taking advantage being TG, versus expressing her identity.
What you are saying amounts to...
Yes, that's understood. I am saying the rules need to be changed. That's why we have a democratic (and I use that term loosely) process. If 'rules were rules' forever, we'd still have people...
But by that 'biological' logic, we should also segregate races who show a trend of biological advantages against other races. (Or for that matter, people with longer legs, broader shoulders, etc.)

There you have it, ladies and gentleman. The essence of transphobia. Right here on crossdressers.com.
Sorry, but my sisters are getting assaulted for these kinds of things. This is the reality.
Check the end of my post for another realistic solution.
Yes, but they easily could be, which...
Did I miss something in the thread? How do you know so much about the requirements of this bowling league? Did the OP win the olympics or something?
It just seems like there are a lot of...
I am a legal female, without SRS.
All male to female transsexuals are 'genetic males', excepting those of course with abnormal chromosomes or intersex people who have been socialized male. Not...
this comment reeks of transphobia. as do many others in this thread.
if it's ok with the supreme court, it's probably ethical.

That sounds like a horrible reason to start a relationship IMO.
Now it's starting to sound like avatar, the ultimate white guilt fantasy movie.
Also, full disclosure -
my interest in this topic stems from the fact that I have myself felt quite connected to various other cultures in my (short) lifetime, and perhaps even have felt the...
It's definitely an interesting frontier. As a transgender woman I have thought a lot about how my identity relates to my body and various forms of expression, and in thinking about this I have often...
I think your honesty will help you mostly, but at times it could put you in danger of offending or hurting others ... so good luck.
mostly @melody moore - transgender is indeed often used as an umbrella term, but not all crosssdressers identify as transgender. and certainly gender is a more complex entity than simply having fun...
Nothing at all is wrong with those three things. But you can be all of those without disguising yourself with a stereotypical 'black' costume.
If you are willing to learn, I would strongly...
Wow... white + male privilege guilt much?
Your post is rather prejudiced and filled with stereotypes.
confidence, sexiness, and 'swag', as you say, are not racial in nature.
The main thing...
if they weren't, you wouldn't have to qualify it with 'made for females'. ;)
The title of this thread includes the phrase 'androgyny in the mainstream'.
There's nothing androgynous about kilts or utilikilts. They are male articles of clothing.
I'm relating the discussion to the original topic, which concerns "The ever present want of clothing styles and choices to be equal among the genders, no matter the sex of that person."
So I am...
i did not contend that 'all men in skirts need be super masculine'. i just said that i've never seen super masculine men wearing skirts in any appreciable amount, especially not men wearing skirts...
I live in nyc and see just about everything, but i've never seen this.
must be a midwest anglo/scottish thing?
usually the only men i see in skirts are super femme gay queens, androgynous...
Here is a relevant essay from one of my favorite transgender theorists and musicians, Terre Thaemlitz:
All's In Order
"Out of Order" Fashion's Inability to Divest of Power...
i don't know if i'd use the word 'special', but coming to terms with one's transgender nature definitely can be an eye opening experience on many fronts. i think in a general sense, people who have...
