    I guess it couldn't hurt to come out as a transsexual on a leftist form, so I will. And I'm really sick of it. It's kind of sad that I can't be open about it online and the sheer amount of abuse I get for it in real life.

    This is quite possible the worst thing I've seen online:

    Pay attention to the first 50 or so comments... disgusting.

    As for it being "What Tyler Durden would do", I don't think he'd set up a ridiculous site and spend most his time finding various parts of Paris Hilton's anatomy to write an offensive article about.

    I am not quite sure what to say. The discrimination is horrible (that is a given), and it seems far more prominent than "normal" homophobia. I have never seen this discrimination firsthand.

    It is sad people are judging movies based on one of the directors... sexuality? I am not quite sure what to call it.

    Gender identity.

    Transphobia does not have a religious basis in discrimination, it was odd the fundie xian said someone was going to burn in hell for me being a transsexual.

    This is probably a very odd question, but how do you turn a vagina into a penis?

    You don&#39;t. You can do it the other way around though(which I&#39;m sort of counting on).

    I am assuming you are pre-op then. Isnt there a year before the surgery where you are put on high levels of hormones to ensure you still want the surgery?

    You go on hormones anyway. Hormones redistribute fat depositis so you get a more womanly shape, and also make your face considerably more feminine. Also makes you "feel" more feminine.

    Out of pure curiousity, could you try and explain the difference between feeling masculine and feminine?

    Gender identity
    No such thing. Gender, outside of biology, is a social construct.

    Transexuality perpetuates this social construct.

    ... um, no Gender Identity does exist since scientists, you know, those smart people in white coats, and psychologists, you know, those guys who are good with brains, did a lot of work and their computer said "Yes".

    Seriously, read up on gender indentity, it does exist.

    And don&#39;t give me one of those assheaded "No, it IS a social construct". Read up or shut up.

    Kittie, I know this is probably a sensitive subject for you, but seriously, easy guys...

    I think bigotry on the whole is abhorrent, and this is just another form of it. I think it is compounded by the fact that most people feel disgusted with the thought of the very operation, but that&#39;s life for you. I think it takes serious courage to undergo the whole physical change to reflect the psychological state.

    Could not read too much of the posts. The posters are obviously juvinile and idiotic. Attack those who are different, as with any discrimination it is fear based. Half of them are probably secretly gay and want to tap the director(nothing wrong with that) and thier shame turns to homophobia.

    Kittie Rose and all transgendered people have more courage than these fools. To live openly against all of society norms takes a brave person. To hate someone because they are different than you takes a fucking coward and idiot.

    Firstly, I would like some sources.

    Secondly, Science is up for sale to the biggest bidder under capitalism, and alot of those bidder&#39;s want to reinforce patriarchy.

    Im not saying youre bad or youre behaviour is bad. What Im saying is that Transgendered Disorder exist&#39;s as a side effect of Patriarchy.

    If there is a demonstrable biological cause for Transgenderism I would like to hear it.

    Is a transsexual when someone is born a male and then decides later that they want to be a female? Gender identity I believe is the term? Or is it something else?

    nevermind, gotcha
