Family, co-workers, community, etc. and in doing so, we opened every conversation with "Do not be afraid to ask any question". We were talking to people that didn't understand transgenderism and they weren't sure what to ask at first. This gave them permission to not ask the "wrong" questions Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05541776489302692674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-47175207526652573542015-05-29T08:14:42.442-04:002015-05-29T08:14:42.442-04:00It seems that I am always ready, willing and able ...It seems that I am always ready, willing and able to discuss, write about (comment) or pass along infomrmation on T issues. I suspect the same is true for you in that communicating our T issues and discussion of T topics is very affirming of who and what we are.<br />PatPat Scaleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00148601231866277374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-76337455220966482442015-05-28T08:01:54.726-04:002015-05-28T08:01:54.726-04:00Engaging in conversations about being trans can we...Engaging in conversations about being trans can we a wonderful way of doing outreach. I have several one on one conversations with people and the discussion generally enlightens them to what we are all about. Consequently, I like to casually converse about my "transness" whenever I get the opportunity.<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />SallySally Stonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-47273796174604233772015-05-28T07:57:59.156-04:002015-05-28T07:57:59.156-04:00So really what I gathered from this is that the tr...So really what I gathered from this is that the trans women really should be treated exactly like every genetic female in that one should always test the water before advancing into more personal , or intimate conversation. I have found in my personal transistioning experience that the less testosterone my body makes the more appropriate I develop into a more well rounded women and therefore only talk about my personal stuff or talk about anothers personal things if I have developed a friendship with them. From my perspective to gain respect for the trans population the focus needs to be emphasized that A women should not be asked about how it feels to be a female and therefore the transgender women should not be targeted as a second class women to be examined in a different light than a genetic women . Please feel free to respond to this if I am perhaps overlooking something but I simply have convinced myself that if a trans women is to incorporate the rigorous disciplines of a women then we should be respected as a women and contribute toward the construction of respect for women in a male dominated world and not create an opportunity to bring a more complicated array of questioning to the arena of feminine composition considering that the male dominated world can't understand these things anyway most of the time. Perhaps I am a little over guarded still but that's just how I see it right now. lol xxx :] Sabrina hopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14731551420317084472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-88918240584389525002015-05-28T07:47:06.744-04:002015-05-28T07:47:06.744-04:00Just don't ask the bathroom question !!Just don't ask the bathroom question !!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-87109148956125983352015-05-28T03:30:10.054-04:002015-05-28T03:30:10.054-04:00When asked I am more than happy to answer any ques...When asked I am more than happy to answer any question, after all I am one of my own favorite subjects!Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12577631984995202146noreply@blogger.com
