As for this section being segregated, it is not segregated at all, it is open to ALL members to post in, unless the OP specifies otherwise, which is in the rules and pertains to most sections on this board. DD's post proved a point, some MTF's just can't keep out of anything that states they aren't allowed to post in it, posting :BS: like 'I'm not a transman, so I hope you don't mind me posting' or those with their nose out of joint starting threads like these to stir up the pot even more, which is what you have done. I'm not closing this thread, but it's not going to go down well, I can tell you that right now.

I think you have some cheek even posting it, talking about segregation and being left out.. what a load of crap :Angry3:

Oh.. and to log out only 5 minutes after posting this thread :rolleyes:
Wow, with the greatest of respect for an administrator of a discussion board this post is awfully inappropriate. Please note that you were the one that used the word "segregation" which has a very distinct and special meaning for those of us that live in and are aware of North American history. What Freddy refers to is far from "segregation" and is pointing out a flaw in the system so to speak that permits in an open forum the silencing of opinions and comments by "others". That is a point to be taken seriously and worthy of debate.

Secondly, Freddy emphasized in her post how much she owes to the male role models in her life. She makes the distinction between good and bad male and masculine role models. Again with respect, I have spent the last 48 years of my life becoming the best man I could be against all of the odds of being woman. Why is it, that members on this board think I have nothing to share about that process, when in fact that is exactly the process my brothers here are going through. All that with one exception, I have physical bits, that I consider rather irrelevant. I wish people would spend the time really reading what people have to say instead of storming forward on every perceived slight or insult. It is shameful and unworthy of a community that wants to be understanding of each other.

good grief... where is the facepalm emoticon?

:facepalm:

oh there it is

such idiocy doesn't require much further comment..
You say you are LGBT proud. There is nothing wrong having a discussion with those that have the same views as you for support and reinforcement. But in an open forum? You like it when someone says we want you to see what we say critically about you but we will not let you answer to the charge.

Also don't just call someone an idiot. Maybe you just did not understand what that person had to say. You will likely answer me but you did! Well, how can you take the chance? Calling someone an idiot is the subtlest from of murder.
