Many thanks, man: I was gettin' worried about you...
My son’s spouse, after years of therapy, came out as a trans man in the last couple of years. He’s not doing hormones or surgery: and his abusive father, a man I would like to kick for his years of abuse of Kit, is the only family member giving him grief.
A couple of my siblings are being dicks about it as well, out of “religious conviction.”
I see the difference in how he now functions: years of therapy to go, but his transition is of an apparent benefit for him.
SO: the left didn’t make this an issue, the Right did: I’ve been trying to warn folks that this was an issue the GOP would ride, after the events locally in '15-'16.
I always knew I was bisexual: told my future wife I thought I was (having never done anything sexual with another guy), and she was cool with it. As a cis gay man, I’ll admit a certain visceral dislike of the concept of changing gender (I’d read Greer’s The Female Eunuch) until i got to know some intersex/trans people.
I never thought drag sexy, but appreciated it as performance, and comic exaggeration as art… (I feel better about drag performance than “Pro Wrestling”, which is sort of a summation of male pathologies as performance…)
