@John: my first response is because if we're stooping to that level of immaturity: I'm a child at heart Don't go thinking on it too hard ^_^

I don't even think about bringing up my being trans IRL unless I'm either applying for work, or really want to have sexytime with somebody.

And I don't think about it until 'that telling moment' is about to happen in the latter case, since I'm enjoying the foreplay, flirtation, and doting entirely too much.

Go ahead and demonstrate that your definitions are "true." That would be quite a feat, as words are just symbols which humans attach meaning to.

And again, if you were truly living as women, this debate wouldn't even be happening.

Not talking about their dicks for one thing. I know nothing about the crotches of any other women on this board. Why do I know something about theirs? Why is there any need to bring it up? Even in a context of trans rights, one doesn;t need to be trans to support those rights.

I initially thought they were women. All I knew about them were their names. If they really wanted to be just like other women, we wouldn't even know they're trans.

But she lives as a person, and really, that is all that counts.

I must not be living like a woman. I jokingly talking about my 2-ft dick often. And yes, Tara and Lilly have penises, their penises are a part of their bodies until they can afford/want to do otherwise. You can judge if you like, but it just makes you look like a giant cunt-waffle and a sexist in the process.

You are living like a woman, hence we conclude you're joking. They could have done the same.

So, you are judging me, and using a sexist insult (cunt) in the process.

I don't buy the whole thing of cunt being a sexist word. Everyone says dick, prick and cock no problem why should cunt be different?

We are like-minded about this.

I've already done so, sonny. If we're really going down this road: nothing is true, everything is permitted. Defining anything is pointless, as everything is nothing is something we cannot understand.

No True Scotsman.

Anyway, there is no debate... only a discussion. I live as a woman, and don't think of myself as anything other than a woman

I don't talk about my penis unless I'm specifically asked or if I'm specifically educating/responding to stupidity (Ask A Transsexual, and your endless accusations).

There isn't any need, unless maybe one's establishing credibility for their comments on transsexuality.

* Violet is just like other women

Regardless of what I 'want' to me, I am what I am (a woman). So your initial thoughts were correct on the matter... that's the problem with second-guessing yourself

Why I would want to be 'just like(?)' 'other women' (rather large swath here, bud)... when I could be a classy lady who does well for the world?
