Hey, just to share, if you look into someone's eyes and slightly smile and listen to them, and get to know them, you don't have to use a lot of pronouns, for sure!!
If you are "in your mind" judging how this person you are attempting communication with is going to respond because of their presenting gender, whew, you aren't listening very well, are you?
Listening, is taking in everything a person does and acts, also, right?!

you have hit the nail on the head. those "guys" that say, do, treat, others that just want to be them selves, have a problem and need to find there true selves.
been there done that. but what makes a man is not what grew betwen the legs. it is what is betwen the ears.

I think it's very important that those within the TG community, regardless of any differences of opinion or personality clashes, support one another. Because honestly, where else can most of us go when we need a friendly ear? We may not all have the same agenda or the same background, but to find solace and comfort in knowing there are similarities, and at the heart, a desire for acceptance, is so very crucial.
