I’m a transsexual. I am a man. I fathered children. Not all kids have a father that is active in their lives. My kids do. I will not take that from them because of my selfishness.
I am a transsexual. I will never be a woman. I spent years of one on one therapy to learn to not hate myself and accept who I am.
I am a transsexual. I am also a spouse, a sibling, a child, a parent, a neighbor, a coworker, a pet lover, a book lover and on and on. None of these things define me. They are all parts of my whole.
I am a transsexual. I have peace in my life. I have love in my life. I have happiness in my life.
Saying “TW are Women” is not a ‘positive statement of fact’ for me. It goes against hundreds of hours of therapy that got me to this place of peace.
I am a transsexual. I am real. I am not the only one with these feelings.
Allowing “TW are Women” while not allowing “TW are men” is an attack on us.
If statements of fact as we see them about 3rd parties off of MN aren’t allowed,”X is a man”, then the only fair option isn’t selective censoring, but no statements about 3rd parties.
