So my brother and I were watching some movie with Hugh Grant in it and the subject of his arrest with the TG prostitute years back came up. His comment. "I don't get Transgenders, what, are they trying to fool people?" I was biting my tongue and facepalming so hard it must have looked like i was having some sort of seizure.I'm not out to him and he's a bit of a racist, homophobic bigot (how we came out of the same household I'll never understand) I just didn't feel like banging my head against that brick wall at that time, but darn it that kind of hurt me a little inside.
It's still bugging me two days later, but I see no way to get into the subject with him without eventually having to out myself on terms not of my choosing. Grrr.
