Hey now, if Bill wants to be identified as a woman or transgendered, I think we should allow him to identify as he wishes.
I just don't think he wants to.
Non trans folk tend to want to transition about as much as I wanted to remain male.

what if I got fake boobs?
what if I taped 2 balloons on my chest?
this is way too subjective to make sense, IMHO.
I just don't understand why calling someone who changed their sex a "transgender" is offensive.
How come people who decided they were gay when they were in their teens do not find the term "gay" offensive? Are transgenders special or something?
Yes we are fucking special. We fart rainbows and piss sprinkles.
You do not call someone a gay. You don't call someone a straight. That too, is how the trans word works.
You are pretty slow on the uptake tonight, Bill.

I have heard people refer to a gay person as "a gay" or "a queer" or "a homosexual"
its the same thing..

Because this is a website, a private website, and you are expected to treat members with respect except for a few forums. Is this really too hard for you to grasp?
I don't agree, Rose.
That "explanation" sounds like a a cop out.
Smh. I'm actually disappointed in you.

I would never call you a "cunt" in here, Viva. If you know I am trans, and call me a man or any other taunt, to get my goat, and out me to others just to shame me, I could be protected by the site's hate speech rules depending on who if anyone decided to moderate the post. If you were banned for such an act, the ban would likely be upheld.
The same would likely happen if you called any person, member or non member, a "Nigger" in here. Same if I called you a "Cunt", or even something more mild like an "Idiot". Pub rules. Weird stuff.

It is ok if you don't see how you were being disrespectful Kid, you do not have to understand the rules in order to be expected to follow them. We expect our userbase to be smart enough to stay out of trouble, sometimes they aren't. Sometimes people just slip up. Sometimes people purposely break a rule. It doesn't really matter to me.

yeah bill, she didn't say calling a transgender person transgender is rude, she said misgendering people intentionally is rude, which it is.
If you taped balloons to your chest, it would be for the point of harassing transgender people, and would prove nothing.
you guys really hate the "please be respectful" rule? Why don't you go to OTD then. Or are you saying we should only be allowed to be disrespectful to transgender people.
edit: why would you want to harass people that have to deal with dumb shit like this? the sin of slightly confusing you.

I try to address people how they would like to be addressed, but in my own mind I guess I think of trans people as being their chromosomal sex. My reflex might be to do otherwise but I definitely feel it would be rude to knowingly use the wrong pronoun.
If someone on here uses the pink icon but in the past has seemed to refer to themselves as male though, I'm likely to do that too unless I'm corrected.

Welcome to my life psi. The longer people knew me as a male the longer it tends to take them to speak to me in female terms without the occasional slip up. It is almost never intentional or malicious.
Also, it was nice at first when people started calling me by my female name and with female pronouns but it was also strange as Hell. Same with the momentary thought before I go into the proper bathroom now, sometimes I do take a pause and think, "Oh yeah, this one now."
I get a lot of people saying things like, "He, I mean... SHE needs to make a phone call... sorry."
It is pretty odd at times for me and for those around me, but it gets more normal for everybody as the months go by.

Do you sit down when you pee on principle, or to avoid scaring the fuck out of other women in the restroom when they hear that familiar stream sound in the next stall?

Great question. Only trans people have asked me that. In public, I sit. In private or in a single use public restroom, I stand. Standing is WAY better. It is about the only thing I like about my junk. I will miss standing some day...
But yeah, if I am in a women's restroom, I sit, and do my business as fast as possible and get out ASAP. It is pretty uncomfortable for me, as I do not want to make other people nervous, but if I do, I would rather be yelled at by a woman than beaten by a man for using their restroom. Besides, women's restrooms have stalls so there is more privacy.
I still do not entirely get the whole using the bathroom in packs thing, but it sure makes me feel less like an outcast when my female friends go in with me, and they frequently do without acting like it is at all strange. Hell, my mom walked into a bathroom with me over the Summer, that was a bit of a mind fuck.

I sit down when I pee because it feels natural, I actually have a hard time doing it standing up.
Rose, as always your patience is an inspiration and a boon.
