Ask a transsexual anything

[TaraJo]

I was just seeking your musical preference.

Ah, ok. Yeah, I love rock music in general, especially late 90's rock.

It sucks that there is that much bigotry still out there.

I went to a pro choice rally in DC years back and a gay couple invited me to spend the night to save money on hotel. So they were nice, had a party with all types. But there was one drunk grabby guy who grabbed my ass. I wasn't pissed that he was gay, I was pissed that he grabbed me. Just like a women would rightfully get pissed if I grabbed them. They threw the jackass out and apologized. I told them it wasn't their fault, they didn't do it.

Bottom line, getting hit on or hitting on someone is normal and we cant help what we are attracted to. But no one has the right to assault you or anyone simply because you are not attracted to them.

Honesty up front. That's what it amounts to. And heteros should not fear getting hit on by the same sex. Just simply say "I am flattered, but no thanks". No different than when we turn down the opposite sex for any reason.

Yeah, it would be nice if it were a safer world for me. I want the world to change and I know some really cool people who are attempting to change the world, but until that change is made, I am very aware of how some people feel about us.
