This doesn't read like support. You dole out the appearance of respect to her, while name-checking her for virtue points, even though you've determined she's not the real deal huh? You're a paragon [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] |

This was exactly the point I was trying to make. To all outward appearances (ie. everything I have to go on) my friend is a male who falsely claims to be transgender. But I'm not the one who gets to decide his/her sexuality/gender.
It's that whole "I may disagree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it" thing. I may disagree that my friend is actually transgender (because by my understanding of the word a "real" transgender person wants to adopt their trans gender, at least on the surface if not surgically) ... but I'll defend anyone's right to define their own gender/sexuality regardless of what others (like myself) think.
