Sam Smith

[TimeLady]

Oh, Sam. It's OK to be a feminine man. Just be patient and wait for the right partner.

This looks like the first steps towards transition to me, and I have a strong sense of foreboding. Sam sounds deeply unhappy.

I have to confess I haven't looked too deeply into this Aha85 because Sam Smith bores the life out of me and it's nearly the weekend.

I liked the first album but now I've realised that Sam holds such sexist views about womanhood, I can't enjoy the music anymore.

He nicely demonstrates the issues though. I feel very sorry for Sam, obviously quite troubled, history of trauma, internalised homophobia, uncomfortable in breaking gender roles (so can only see himself as fully masculine or fully feminine, feels extremely uncomfortable with anything in between). "All made sense" after reading lots online. And any therapist suggesting he might be able to reconcile his two selfs would be accused of harmful conversion therapy. Instead we should be telling him to "go ahead" when he considers surgery, and that he's right to think men can't be feminine.

It sounds like you don't think trans people shouldn't exist at all. They're all just confused gays?
