I love these videos--they are my weekly joy!!!!!
Good on Lady Gaga for not responding to 'accusations' she is trans for all the right reasons. I am a masculine presenting lesbian and I am often either mistaken for a cis man or thought to be a trans man. I never correct these two things, although I am neither, as I don't want the conversation to be about how I am not 'one of them', which has occasionally happened and requires a rather pointed response. I don't correct people because there is nothing wrong with people thinking I am transgender or a man. When the 'you're not one of them' comment rears its ugly little head I ask why they think I am not one of 'those people' or why someone would think I am somehow onboard with anti-trans sentiments just because I am not personally transgender. That is the same as believing that just because I am white I am automatically racist or okay with their racism (which is racist).
Thank you for sharing your story like this! You've brought up a fascinating point...because as it stands, I tend to pass in public pretty well. But if asked - and many times even if I'm not asked - I will tell people about having transitioned gender. I feel it gives me the ability to tell the story of who I am, and who knows? Maybe it would even educate somebody!
That said...I guess I *am* one of "those people," so the difference between us makes some sense. But one of the Holy Grails of Gender Transition(TM) is to pass. So it's interesting to me that cisgender people are accused of being transgender and deny it vehemently...then transgender people try hard to appear cisgender, but tell everybody they meet about transitioning.
I don't seem to have a real point with this other than to say "Thank you." I could have been a bit less verbose, though. 💜🏳️⚧️💜
Thanks for the joy! I agree they were all great examples and something to be happy about!
Now if only we can get everybody to agree that joy can come even when the people who are joyful are not identical to us! It's the next step...and I hope we get there. 💜💜💜
We can find something every day for which to be grateful if we try. I am grateful to have found you on YT and learn from you about the trans community and the real science about gender and sex. Have a lovely weekend, Pretty Purple Princess! 💜
And believe me, Sister...I am so joyful to have met you and had the opportunity to interact with you. I am fortunate in many ways, and you've helped me experience them.
With love...PPP
P.S. I have a business kinda in the works, with TH-cam serving as a midwife at the moment. The business name includes the word "Purplepaw," which has a meaning I'd rather link below than try to explain here. The way I always abbreviate it in my handwritten journals is "PPP," and seeing the applicability to your moniker (which I adore) and my long-range business thoughts delights me.
