Ever get tired of all the negativity towards us TG people?

[ReineD]

What makes it even more maddening is when TG people on this very board jump on the band wagon to try and make us feel bad about who we are.

Maybe I just read too much.

Marleena, I hope you take this the right way, but maybe you just need to step back from the forum for a few days. I've felt that way many times in the past ... sort of a burnout I guess.

It's a large forum with a wide variety of people, some saner than others, some more tactful than others, some with stronger abilities to see beyond their own circumstances than others. I don't think most people here try to put others down, even though some of the posts read that way.

EDIT

Being newly accepting of myself I don't have much experience with being in the public eye yet. I will be able to respond to that better by the end of April.

There you go! You need to put some eggs in different baskets. Try to focus on going out and you'll see that you won't be affected so much by some of the people here who look at things differently than you do.
