I'll go ahead and disagree with Kaitlyn Michele, and say that I completely agree with our Ms. Speck. I find no fault at all in what she's saying. I see no denigration to TS people in her post, nor any insult to any crossdressing or transgendered people. She's hit upon an irrefutable point here: That genetically, males and females are different. This difference affects brain pattern. Many transgendered males, while desperately needing to transition or at least present female, still have the social and genetic engineering of the male brain. They had to live their early lives, at least, being brought up as males. Even a boy who is raised as a female still has the male engineering and thought patterns to deal with.
She's not dumping on anyone here. She's merely expressing a well-thought out point of view that has a ton of validity to it whether you like it or not.
Nope. She's right as rain here. You can hate on it all you want, but if you do, you're wrong.
Sophie....females thought patterns don't have to "leak out". They're just there. The fact that for you, it tends to "leak out", proves her point.
Sara, good point. Males cannot fathom the entire female experience, but non-transgendered people cannot fathom the TG experience either. I'll never know what it's like to be completely male or female. TG is all I've ever known.
