So, if we wanted to be a good friend to you greg we'd explain to you want you are... Just looked to confirm......I'm a guy! Does all of the boys in your life looked manly? Weren't there anyone who you used to make fun of for being feminine and hanged out with girls? You can't seriously say that ANY man will call this horror (of transitioning) upon themselves just because? One time I had heard that people were discussing gay issue and one man said 'you know how gays are treated nowadays... so IF I had a choice - would I want to be beaten and spit on or I would just get married to a woman an have a good life?' So what do you think macho man?

What I was TRYING to tell you that people do not wish things upon themselves that are hard and sometimes simply impossible to deal with. If he had done it - he had no choice!

O.k. I give up. What's a "packer"? An artificial pecker? Hahahahaha yes sir. ? the best part about it according to some of my exes too is they always get what they want with me ? why i dont want surgery..dont like that one on to the next one. They also dont fear getting pregnent ?? except i want kids some day so thats kind of a bummer. Im not going to apolozise to virgil for the fact that ive seen his posts. The he/she thing is just one wrong thing and hurtful thing ive seen him say. Its not all him. Its def not all on him but people like him with the refusal to accrpt what someone asks to be referred to does make people hate themselves..it does make them want to die not being accepted. It is fact. Virgil can call me whatever he likes. However ill be a lot more verbal if he were to say it to someone i know cant handle the nonacceptance. That was me being very light. Oh my gosh the question marks are supposed to be laughing faces or a wink >.> Ok, now from my perspective...how am I supposed to call you? Because it is pretty confusing to me as well, right? To not offend what is this supposed to be? THE word?

Perhaps since this morphed from supporting friends to explaining the situation, a new thread might be in order?

tloonya, aka Loony, speaks a hybrid Russian, English, Klingon, Jibberish language. You'd be more confused if you DID understand what she said.

Loony has a very tenuous grasp on the English language.... and reality.

I won't tell anyone to get back on topic on a 15-page thread, but let's please try to refrain from commenting on the sanity or language skills of other posters (even if all meant in good fun).

I am sure, GREG, Kolt confused why MJ is ROFLherAO when there is no apparent reason for it. And Kolt, I was just trying to explain that for us non gendertransuals it is also very confusing how to behave to not offend. Someone needs to explain it to us. Maybe you will.

tloonya - It really is not confusing - especially here on a message board. Kolt! has told us he's a he. So you refer to him just like you do anyone else who presents here as male - by his name or as "he". Because that's the thing online - with the exception of the few people who have met in real life, no one actually knows what genders we are. You've never met me, so for all you know, I could be a 15 year old boy, and not the 40 year old professional woman I present myself as, but since I present myself as female, I am referred to by my screen name (not my real name ) and she/her.
In real life, it can be harder, especially when someone is at the start of their transition. They may still look like the other gender, so it can get a little confusing. But, if someone tells me their name is Bob, it doesn't matter if I think they look more like a Bobbi (or a Frank, for that matter), I am going to call them Bob. The one time it was actually hard for me was when I met someone for a first time who had a name that could have been either male or female, and the person could have been a (very) feminine male or a somewhat masculine female. Turned out he was a trans-male, near the start of the transition, but we really didn't know at the first meeting (and it's not like he was going to share that with us strangers).
As for my friend, I am going to have 20 years of history and habit to replace, and so as long as I make a conscious effort, my friend doesn't care. She knows we'll mess up every once in a while, but as long as we try, she's good.
