sometimes I feel it's because they don't like to see someone genuinely happy,minding their own business,just going on with their life.
when people are cruel it's because they want the world to be as miserable as they are,they need to get a life.
I dress 24/7,it makes me happier than a pig in fresh mud,and it helps me stay calm,and relaxed.
don't let them get to you,if they get physical,just give them a good swft kick to their groin,but take off your high heels first.

My pet theory is that societies condition their members into accepting certain behavious as "right", which means that other behaviours which contradict the "right" ones must be "wrong". We live in a society that promotes one set of images and behaviours as "right" for males, and another set as "right" for females. When we "cross the line" between the two, we're challenging what our society believes is "right" for our gender. That can make many people who conform to societal norms uncomfortable, and they can respond negatively, even aggressively. In reality, while their discomfort is their problem, it's easier for them to say "something must be wrong with you" than to admit to themselves "something must be wrong with me" because of their discomfort. Self-validation by pointing out others as "wrong" can be a very powerful need at times.

Who cares what your sexual orientation is. Shouldn't it be enough to just say "I like to wear women's clothes"? Why do you need to justify what you wear with a statement about your sexuality? I'm not criticising you, I've done exactly the same thing myself, and so have pleanty of other people here. It's just intersting that while many of us will admit to breaking one male taboo (looking feminine/effeminate), even behind the anonymity of this forum we feel a need to make it clear that we are not breaking another male taboo (homosexuality). In fact, isn't there a stereotype in the minds of most males that if you are feminine/effeminate in some way, that you must also be gay? Who are we really trying to convince with statements like that, each other, or ourselves?

Hi Michaela;
Thanks for this thread, I believe its an important one.
In our society today, many, if not most, people FEAR what they don't understand, and many don't understand why a man wants to dress as a woman. They will accept a woma that wears men's clothing, short hair and all, but the same is not true for us.
The general attitude towards a crossdresser is a stereotype that we must be gay; that we are not happily married to a female, and never could be.
MY attitude is simple: Never live by the desires of fool, less you become one!
Live and let live, and as the song by the Beatles said, " LET IT BE!"
warm Wishes Always,
JamieK

Hi Michaela.

You poor thing. I know it can feel really horrible when people are nasty to us. Let us cheer you up again.

So what happened? I hope you weren't in any physical danger. Were you in a rough neighbourhood? Were you trying to blend in, or to stand out?

Even when we do our best to be inconspicuous, some people will go out of their way to be mean to us. You've just got to learn to not let those "Gender Nazis" get to you. And stay away from places that could be physically dangerous.

First, I'll assume you're asking "Why are PPL cruel?" But I"m not sure.

I guarantee no matter how tolerant a person you are--unless you've had a lobotomy--there are things you think are weird, odd, different, annoying about ppl. And those that tell me they don't think there's anything weird, odd, different or annoying about others. Well, you're either brain dead, without an opinion or have had a lobotomy.


So............................

Why do I like asparagus but not okra?

Why do I strongly prefer the color purple but detest yellow?

Why is something sweet more pleasant to taste than something bitter?




Why do I not like the mafia queen look?

Why why why.....why WHY WHY?!?!?

Don't why yourself to death; often times I just think you're asking the wrong question. It isn't always why. Why is definitely the wrong question. You will never, ever answer this satisfactorily and it will drive you nutz. Cease and desist my sister.

Yes children can be the most cruel, just ask any kid that gets picked on in school.

[ReginaK]

I think cruelty is a side-effect of ignorance.

[JulieCDorlando]

I think cruelty is a side-effect of ignorance.

And ignorance is a lack of understanding within the uneducated masses. In this day and age you would think that most of the narrow minded people are aware of many people that are "different" by society's standards, and would at the very least be tolerant. They do not have to accept this lifestyle (by participating in it), but at least be tolearant of people that do.
Being a crossdresser/transgendered person isnt at all about sexual orientation, nor is wearing the clothing of the opposite gender in any way to be connected with sex in nature. Crossdressing is a seperate issue all together from both oreintation, and sex. Just my

....because men are supposed to be men and and women that want to be men are "one of the guys"

Anything other then that is 'Gay' which equals strange or unnatural.
Which leads to anger, which leads to fear which leads to hatred which leads to suffering....that is the path to the dark side....oops sorry got off on a tangent.
