Colorado parents of transgender 1st-grader file complaint over restroom ban

[TaraJo]

Wait a minute, tegh. Since when are all transgender women attracted to men?

I'm not worried about a threat to me. I fucking dare someone to try. It's other people I worry about. All the time, actually.

Not all obviously but I'd guess it'd be a majority.

You'd be surprised. I know a quite a few trans women who are lesbian, and only a few who are strictly straight. The great majority of us fall somewhere into the bisexual label. Educated guess, I think our pesonal experiences causes us to view gender differently and see it as more fluid.

But even with let's say lesbian transgendered or bisexual transgendered women, with all the hormone therapy can they even still use their penises sexually? And if they could, would they want to? Because I thought they would rather have vaginas.

Also a valid point. A penis needs testosterone to really work well. Erections don't get as hard, they take longer to get and the penis gets smaller overall. Plus, hormone treatment tends to greatly reduce our sex drive. And about six or so months on hormones leaves us sterile. And, yeah, I've known a lot of girls who refuse to use their penis in any way, shape or form; I even knew one who felt so tainted and dirty when she used it with her girlfriend that sometimes she would cut herself over it.

So, pretty much fuck any parent who thinks gender identity in a prepubescent child is important enough to risk the health of a six-year-old.

I don't think a six year old should start on hormones; that's way too young. But I don't think a girl who identifies and lives as a girl should be forced into male puberty. Honestly, if it's up to me, I say try to let the child live as normal a life as she can. I know, being trans she's going to have difficulties and struggles and everything, but why should we give her anymore of that than she's already going to have?
