I did want to take a minnute here and point out something kind of interesting.
If you look up Tri Ess which is probably the largest CD organization out there you will see that they do NOT accept anyone but hetrosexual CDs and thier SOs. That means if your CD and you say your going to take hormones or want to transition, or gay, its goodby no longer accepted. If your TS and not a SO your likewise not accepted.
Now something seems kind of funny about a group of people that bitch about acceptance and then discriminates. Or am I crazy.
What is even more interesting to watch is if you go to a event where the CDs are present with thier SOs and a TS approaches the group you will see fear, annoyance, and in most cases the CDs will do ANYTHING to get the TS girl away!!! Take the same CDs without the SOs present and its total acceptance and all too often far more than acceptance of the TS.
I am just pointing out observations I mean I have seen it a lot of times.
So a recap it is interesting to note that the CDs that lament about acceptance and discrimination, have this large organization out there and they do not accept anyone but hetro CDs.
Things that make you go hmmmmmm.
Support comes in many forms, often here its seen as a fluffy rainbow tell me I am doing great, pat me on the back and make me feel good even if I am doing a terrible jog sort of support. Support also comes in the form of hearing things you dont want to hear but its the truth and sometimes the truth hurts and effects change. In this case I might suggest the CDs clean thier own house before they complain about others houses. Hope you get the point.
