      @Kirby:

      So i'm not too sure what my label is. I guess you could say that I'm gay but i wouldn't rule out me dating women in the future. For me it's more about dating certain personalities. Wow, that was quite a long way of saying that yes, I do date the same sex 🙂

      Nice thread Idea. I did sometimes wonder if anyone else on this forum was gay.

      I would label you a pansexual, if a label had to be given.

            Funny you say that I actually tried using that term when talking to people but it always ended in someone going "what?" and then me explaining it…...

            followed by someone going "oh your bi?"....then me having to explain it again. lol.

            FAST ANIMALS. SLOW CHILDREN.

            Prostitution is Revolution. You can hate me after you pay me.

              I thought that people who watch Dragon Ball GT are pansexual.

              Win?

                Mini Luffy being an ass in 5,4,3,2,1…..

                He hasn't yet…

                @MiniLuffy:

                Anyone admitted transexuality yet?

                But Just wait till someone "Admits" to this.

                    lol, Demon Rin's butt hurts whenever transexuality is involved. Coincidence? Nah, I'm just kidding.

                    Anyway, if you recall correctly, the argument was about creepy girls and trannies. I don't hate trannies, I just don't prefer them. OH PLEASE DON'T SKIN ME ALIVE FOR HAVING AN OPINION, ROUGH INTERNET CROWD.

                        If you'd phrased it like that, you wouldn't have been attacked by anyone, but If I recall correctly, you framed your opinion in a more… insulting and demeaning way.

                        And I'm apparently not the only one who remembers it that way

                            No lesbians or transgenders, though. At least none that I know of.

                            I thought I already did on page 4… I know I'm not anyone interesting on the forum but I'm at least a someone (clearly I'm not nobody).

                            And, obviously, it isn't a thing you 'admit' to. It's others that should be embarrassed admitting that they dislike such a run-of-the-mill, boring, group as transfolk. Seriously, we're not nearly as interesting or as 'fun' as 4chan makes us out to be.

                            Generally I identify more as genderqueer than as an MtF-transsexual but the second one is easier to explain to employers/doctors/random people on forums/etc. Either way, I still fall under the T in LGBT.

                              It's perfectly alright for a woman to have a penis or two, eh? I mean, their personality may be normal, but there sure as hell is something wrong with them, for them to make by far the dumbest life-changing decision in the universe. That's just my opinion, but…

                              They fucking disgust me.

                              MiniLuffy didn't mean harm with this. Stop bullying him!

                                    I don't mind :happy:. I started hormones back in 2006. I was basically full time in 2007. I say 'basically' because by this time I already passed as female with no problem so this is just when I convinced my family to deal with it (only took them eight years to figure this out). Plus I got a job in 2007 using my preferred name/pronouns (graduated from university the same year).

                                    Currently, I'm in graduate school working on my PhD in computer science. I've saved quite a bit of money towards GRS and could probably afford it within the next year if I didn't mind going out of country. Nonetheless, I'm still not sure of my feelings about the surgery. I would try to elaborate here but it would probably only turn into a long ramble on the US health care system, the gory details of GRS, and how people shouldn't be dumb conformists…. So yeah that's about it. Feel free to ask if you have any questions.

                                    Yay, no problem. I'm just happy to be counted. 😁

                                      Yes, I said that, is there a problem? They disgust me, their decision is dumb to me and that's the end of the story. If you think that I'm contradicting to my previous statement that I don't hate trannies this way, then you are wrong. First, I have nothing personal against them, it's just the idea that's revolting to me and which I don't really approve. Second, I would never show anger or displeasure towards a tranny, even if I was fully aware of it beforehand. I respect everyone's ways, but that really doesn't stop me from having an opinion on them, even if it's a secretive one. So yeah, please don't burn me alive.

                                          Yes, I said that, is there a problem? They disgust me, their decision is dumb to me and that's the end of the story. If you think that I'm contradicting to my previous statement that I don't hate trannies this way, then you are wrong. First, I have nothing personal against them, it's just the idea that's revolting to me and which I don't really approve. Second, I would never show anger or displeasure towards a tranny, even if I was fully aware of it beforehand. I respect everyone's ways, but that really doesn't stop me from having an opinion on them, even if it's a secretive one. So yeah, please don't burn me alive.

                                          What would you do if you got hit on by a trannie?

                                              Assuming he told me what s/he was? Just tell him/her that it's not my thing.

                                              I've never met a real life trannie but I know a ton of gay people. Doubt they'd be much different.

                                                Wise, wise, I'd do the same. But what about the more persistent ones?

                                                  What about that persistant drunk Genetic girl at that party who is completely wasted, looks extremely skany/dirty, and reeks of booze and puke who won't stop hitting on you? (Basically, picture Ke$ha hitting on you) I've had my share of this from guys. Hell, there are plenty of SOBER guys who are creepy and won't leave me alone sometimes…

                                                  Transgendered people are every bit exactly like everyone else, and they include the same strengths and weaknesses.

                                                  And "He" would only BE a "He" if he identifies as a crossdresser. (IE: he's not trying to work towards changing his body, he just likes dressing and still thinks of himself as a man)

                                                  Otherwise they'd be a woman.

                                                    This may be true, but many trannsexuals go through at least one self identification before realizing that they are in fact trannsexuals. So that is to say, it's not certain that one's way of thinking in the beginning will match his way of thinking later on.

                                                                  Yes, I said that, is there a problem? They disgust me, their decision is dumb to me and that's the end of the story. If you think that I'm contradicting to my previous statement that I don't hate trannies this way, then you are wrong. First, I have nothing personal against them, it's just the idea that's revolting to me and which I don't really approve. Second, I would never show anger or displeasure towards a tranny, even if I was fully aware of it beforehand. I respect everyone's ways, but that really doesn't stop me from having an opinion on them, even if it's a secretive one. So yeah, please don't burn me alive.

                                                                  He's trying to be diplomatic but just contradicting himself. "I have nothing against trannies but I don't approve", lol. "I won't show anger to them, I keep my seething disgust to when they've turned their back!" Oh, well that's all right then, eh?

(Basically, picture Ke$ha hitting on you) I've had my share of this from guys. Hell, there are plenty of SOBER guys who are creepy and won't leave me alone sometimes…

                                                                        Transgendered people are every bit exactly like everyone else, and they include the same strengths and weaknesses.

                                                                        And "He" would only BE a "He" if he identifies as a crossdresser. (IE: he's not trying to work towards changing his body, he just likes dressing and still thinks of himself as a man)

                                                                        Otherwise they'd be a woman.

                                                                        This,

                                                                        If someone would tell me it bothered them that I was trans, I certianly would not be all up in their shit.
                                                                        Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and if someone is disgusted or upsetted by someone who is trans, I more than respect that. Likewise, I would take zero offense by it as long as they were respectful about it in the sense that they wouldn't warentlessly harrass me / cause harm to me / destroy my property.

                                                                        MiniLuffy doesn't sound like he insults anyone or starts fights or steals their cats or something. It's just miniluffy's opinion and I see nothing wrong with it.

                                                                              I really don't get it to be honest, what, do the Marines think the gays'll "Get us" if we know they're gay and we're sharing quarters with them?

                                                                              The major thing I've never gotten about this whole Ordeal is "Don't Ask Don't Tell".
                                                                              It's ass-backwards logic. The Major complaint seems to be sharing sleeping quarters with Homosexuals right? So... with the CURRENT law, you are ALREADY Sharing sleeping quarters with Homosexuals. Isn't that MORE scary?! If the rare and elusive gay person is truly horrifying to you, wouldn't you prefer to know WHICH person is gay, rather than have the gay people already among you, hiding?

                                                                              It seems to be a classic use of the old "Ostrich with his head in the sand" defense.
                                                                              They KNOW the gay people are among them, but as long as they aren't being OPEN about it, well, they can just pretend nobody in the army is gay I guess.

                                                                              That's the one thing I've never understood about Homophobia. And I'm not talking about moral crusaders who are like "AHUR, IT BE IN DAH BIBUL, SO NO IT BE WRONG!" I'm talking about the people who are literally afraid of being around gay or trans people...
                                                                              Why be afraid of it? What, do you think just because that person is gay or Trans, they'll be sex-crazed and immediately jump on you and try to hump you? Do you think if you stand too close to a gay or trans person, you'll "Catch" it?

                                                                                  I guess the army's top doesn't want to change their policy at al costs. I'm fairly sure that if you make a poll among marines that they wouldn't mind sleeping with gays, but the top is resorting to all the lies they can get to stop the changes.

                                                                                  Seeking infinity, with all my affinities.

                                                                                    You'd think the Gay-bashers would be in FAVOR of sending Patriotic gay people off to die in wars…

                                                                                    I really don't get it to be honest, what, do the Marines think the gays'll "Get us" if we know they're gay and we're sharing quarters with them?

                                                                                    The major thing I've never gotten about this whole Ordeal is "Don't Ask Don't Tell".
                                                                                    It's ass-backwards logic. The Major complaint seems to be sharing sleeping quarters with Homosexuals right? So... with the CURRENT law, you are ALREADY Sharing sleeping quarters with Homosexuals. Isn't that MORE scary?! If the rare and elusive gay person is truly horrifying to you, wouldn't you prefer to know WHICH person is gay, rather than have the gay people already among you, hiding?

                                                                                    It seems to be a classic use of the old "Ostrich with his head in the sand" defense.
                                                                                    They KNOW the gay people are among them, but as long as they aren't being OPEN about it, well, they can just pretend nobody in the army is gay I guess.

                                                                                    That's the one thing I've never understood about Homophobia. And I'm not talking about moral crusaders who are like "AHUR, IT BE IN DAH BIBUL, SO NO IT BE WRONG!" I'm talking about the people who are literally afraid of being around gay or trans people...
                                                                                    Why be afraid of it? What, do you think just because that person is gay or Trans, they'll be sex-crazed and immediately jump on you and try to hump you? Do you think if you stand too close to a gay or trans person, you'll "Catch" it?

                                                                                    They probably actually do. It seems to me like the majority don't even understand what sexual orientation is. That's why they think it is a choice, that they can "catch it", etc.

Maybe they should learn from ancient Greece, they encouraged homosexuality because they felt men would fight for each other more passionately if they were sleeping together 😉

                                                                                          I guess the army's top doesn't want to change their policy at al costs. I'm fairly sure that if you make a poll among marines that they wouldn't mind sleeping with gays, but the top is resorting to all the lies they can get to stop the changes.

                                                                                          This is the answer of the parliament:

                                                                                                When we (the Dutch) were fighting the war in Afghanistan the past few years we got constant praise from the US for the way we handled things. Then things home got screwy (government fell) and we left Afghanistan (the last soldiers arrived home two weeks ago).

                                                                                                US reaction, including one of their generals?

                                                                                                The Dutch army consists of pussies who can't even fight a couple of small battles, because it's full of gays.

                                                                                                Yeah, I've never known or seen anyone that thinks that. They simply don't care about the Dutch involvement in the Afghanistan war(no offense, just being honest).

It's funny because once i came out a bunch of girls immediatley wanted me to be their BFF, which albeit a little bit eye rolling, it makes my male friends jealous to see all the interaction i've been having with my female friends.

                                                                                                      You'd think the Gay-bashers would be in FAVOR of sending Patriotic gay people off to die in wars…

                                                                                                      I really don't get it to be honest, what, do the Marines think the gays'll "Get us" if we know they're gay and we're sharing quarters with them?

                                                                                                      The major thing I've never gotten about this whole Ordeal is "Don't Ask Don't Tell".
                                                                                                      It's ass-backwards logic. The Major complaint seems to be sharing sleeping quarters with Homosexuals right? So... with the CURRENT law, you are ALREADY Sharing sleeping quarters with Homosexuals. Isn't that MORE scary?! If the rare and elusive gay person is truly horrifying to you, wouldn't you prefer to know WHICH person is gay, rather than have the gay people already among you, hiding?

                                                                                                      It seems to be a classic use of the old "Ostrich with his head in the sand" defense.
                                                                                                      They KNOW the gay people are among them, but as long as they aren't being OPEN about it, well, they can just pretend nobody in the army is gay I guess.

                                                                                                      That's the one thing I've never understood about Homophobia. And I'm not talking about moral crusaders who are like "AHUR, IT BE IN DAH BIBUL, SO NO IT BE WRONG!" I'm talking about the people who are literally afraid of being around gay or trans people...
                                                                                                      Why be afraid of it? What, do you think just because that person is gay or Trans, they'll be sex-crazed and immediately jump on you and try to hump you? Do you think if you stand too close to a gay or trans person, you'll "Catch" it?

                                                                                                      see, to me, as a girl, i think i should be more scared of strait guys hitting on me. some of them are pigs. at least gay guys are nice.

                                                                                                      i have a question about transgendered. At some point, they make a decision to be refereed to as the opposite sex. kinda like coming out of the closet. Or is it more a train of thought that they've always been like that. I'm just wondering, if it's appropriate to refer to that person as their original gender before they came out? or do I stick with the opposite gender regardless?

                                                                                                      For example. "Mikey looked cute when she was 4 and had that pink dress on"

                                                                                                      …I'm making this sound aquard, and I apologize if I offend anyone. This question has just been swirling in my head for a while.

                                                                                                        …I'm making this sound aquard, and I apologize if I offend anyone. This question has just been swirling in my head for a while.

                                                                                                        For transsexuals the usual thing is to refer to them by their preferred pronoun even when talking about before they transitioned. To them, transitioning is not a matter of personal preference but affirming identity. Like you said, it's more along the lines that they've always been like that in some way and are just bringing their body and mind in sync. This is also how modern stylebooks advise journalists refer to them (it's older articles where the writer does the stupid switching between pronouns).

                                                                                                        Of course when it comes to transgender people not everybody identifies as male or female. Some people prefer only gender neutral pronouns (ze/zir/zirself is my favorite). Some people are okay with any pronouns. Technically gender neutral pronouns are just that and can be used in any situation (for bonus points use them to refer to your cisgender friends too). Nonetheless, you're probably best just asking what pronoun someone prefers than using a gender neutral one. Some transfolk have a strong dislike of them (fussy transsexuals mostly). If you are not in a position to ask them which they prefer a good rule of thumb is to use ones consistent with how the person dresses/acts/lives.

                                                                                                        Finally, if you still have questions feel free to ask. Wikipedia has long articles on the many different kinds of tfolk and is a good place to look for information as well.
