O/T Trans in America

[frogmiller]

So, if we acknowledge that they exist, and that the existense of T in the LGBT helps to give a formal acknowledgement from the world at large (and we have had several young trans people through our college doors), the validation of their existence and identity from their familiesa and wider communities, is one of the things that they struggle the most with and with an extremely high number of mental health struggles makes them a hugely vulnerable group. With that in mind, I struggle to think why the US would want to do this, when the negatve impact of withdrawing recognition and recognising their identity is a major source of many struggles for them. It may seem like a small thing to the world at large, but it will have a serious impact on many in the trans community. It feels quite unnecessary and cruel.

But why should the LGB be forced to suffer the T+ group?

The real ***ual orientation of a group is well accepted but the trans and + are a fettish?

Whatever your own personal thoughts are it?s a fact that there thousands of people in the UK that find LGB people abhorrent

Where is their representation?

Abhorrent,really ??
I know you live in the 70`s Grist,but some people are a bit more tolerant these days,so you don`t think old straight men have a voice in the UK ?

What makes you think that LBT are suffering the T+ group? They seem to be strong allies to me.

Quite shocked at the level of vitrial on here towards such an extremely vulnerable group of humans. Tolerate, fetish, abhorrant. I work with them as 16-18 year olds and I'm always struck by how vulnerable and confused they are, certainly at that age. I just don't get why there is so much hate that is grown and thrown at them. Cross dressers? People making comments on public forums really illuminating some quite stupendous ignorance there!
