I'm happier transitioning and acknowledging my dysphoria and working toward a world were we can accept and live with it then attempting to hide it out of fear or irrational desire to be something I'm not.

Of course you are. That is my point ^^ Be happy being womanlike as you are now. Stop wishing you actually were one and the discontent will fade or at least subside. It won't as long as you cling to the delusion that you are a woman though.

And what am I? Should I simply accept what Nihilist_santa says about me, or what you say and not determine for myself?

If I'm a woman, and look like one, and behave like one, and am functionally like one, and feel like one. What's wrong with simply being a woman and blending in?

I certainly don't identify as a man or a tranny or shemale, or katheoy.

And why should I have to use gender to justify being who I am? Sadly the current state of affairs doesn't allow people to stealthily just be woman because people are hunting us down, trying to out us, and freak out over bathrooms and what DNA we were born with, want to deny us employment, healthcare, force us into the streets, and beat us to death.

I feel like a woman, my license says F, and I use the womans restroom, and the doctors treat me as if I'm a woman.

Though if I was truly respected for who I was than people wouldn't make me jump through giant flaming hoops to establish that.

I really can't explain it, I think everyone suffers some form of discrimination at some point, especially woman who are told lots of things when their children and men who they should and shouldn't be, what they should and shouldn't aspire to. But for some of us it's really bad enough to make us suicidal/hide from the world/kill us.

I'm grateful that's slowly changing, and that many woman and men accept me for who I am rather than trying to label me with something I'm not.

It's been a lot easier to assert that I'm a woman than it was to assert that I wasn't. The judge I sat before, and my doctors, and the people I interact with most all gender me correctly. Not because of fear of reprisal, but because they got to know me, and realized it was pretty dumb to try and call me something I'm not. Hence my transition has gone a lot smoother than someone who is much less feminine.

But being a woman isn't about how pretty or feminine someone should or could look or what size their boobs are, ironically that ties back into the lady's rant in the OP.

How you look doesn't make you a woman or prove your womanhood. There are like I said lots of natal woman who are far less effeminate than me. They are still woman in my eyes. Just as much as anyone else is [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

DNA says I am because the DNA expressed in a way to make me one.

Your chromosomes would disagree. Also its not about "white america" its about the people who have a vested interest (the land owner class) being out voted their property rights by hordes of have nots. Democracy favors the larger number.

The bourgeois are doing just fine lol. I think we could agree that it's becoming increasingly harder to own and trade land and property and secure it for our families and use it in the way we wish. And in part due to the large number of corporations who own more than people do, but yet are controlled by a small minority.

This is really off topic. But I don't want to "steal" land from anyone. And I don't think a certain group or class of people should be barred from having land ownership.

If you are able to pay for it, or trade for it, and prove you own it, the government should help protect your right to it, as well as your privacy.

Also Azure have you ever considered the fact that its simply just "you". I mean there are other p99 shemales but they don't get the same vitriol directed at you. Probably because its not the defining quality of their character and they dont advertise about their fetish the way you do. I have a sneaking suspicion male or female you are pretty fucking annoying. You probably internalized this rejection of your personality into being about "identity". I guess you thought if you completely altered yourself on the outside somehow that would make you a better person on the inside /eyeroll.

It's not just me and people are constantly posting stuff, the post that prompted this was Dillians post about a trans woman in South Carolina.

Lictor, I'm not exploiting anyone, re-read the thread, the OP and the womans opinion. I'm pretty sure she would like what I've said so far and that I'm in agreement with her. I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have mentioned trans people or the bathroom issue if she didn't feel strongly about standing up for us and what people are doing. Why don't you let her speak for herself by reading the first quote in the OP? Better yet you could click her link and comment on her post about how she feels about it directly. Rather than making assumptions about my motives and her desires.

Here:

"It's time I said this. Take a good hard look at my chest. Don't feel weird doing it. There is nothing sacred or sexual left to see.

What is there for you to see is a hollowed arm pit. Breast cancer spreads first to your underarm lymph nodes. Seeing as mine was under my left arm, they removed all of my lymph nodes & a lot of tissue. You may also note an incision that is disfigured as this kept opening up post surgery.

While I can see that the pink ribbon brings comfort to some... I want you to know that breast cancer is ugly. It's not an easy or a glam cancer to have. In fact cancers are one & the same to me. Cells run wild. Immune system compromised.

It robbed me of a precious part of myself that I once nourished my children with. It took away part of my sexual identity. Now that's if we're just talking about my breasts or my former breasts I'll say.

When I chose to not have reconstruction it was for many reasons but most importantly it was because my children had seen me down enough. I wanted them to see me strong again. I wanted them to have their Mother they knew.

Until recently I have been very comfortable with my decision. However... The great bathroom debate of 2016 has hurt more than just the transgender community.

It has hurt us survivors. Recently I notice more eyes trying to figure me out. At the grocery store, restaurants ... Walmart was the worst. I want to scream, YES! You are seeing it right! This is Breast Cancer... Please check yourself!' But instead I let my eyes meet theirs in an almost plea for a change in what has become our society.

I am personally of the belief that no transgender person wants to cause trouble in a bathroom. People just want to use the restroom. There have been terrible acts happening in public restrooms long before this. This is why my children never use a public restroom without me. You don't have to agree with me & I don't have to agree with you. It's ok.

Persons undergoing cancer treatment or post cancer treatment may lack hair & wear a baseball hat. They may have undergone a mastectomy like myself. Please consider these things. Rant over."
