The castrated girl that CuriousGirl always posts about was introduced to her through a mutual friend and this girl was already castrated when CuriousGirl met her. Judging from her previous posts I don't think she would force any girl to get castrated. I urge you reread CuriousGirl's post plus do a search to read her other posts and then make up your mind as to whether or not you like her.

Ila, I'm sorry, but I don't share your view. I have in my time here been a bit hard on a few posters, mostly for good reasons but at times I've had to back off and appologize. I do that gladly, if it's reasonable and if I have been outta line. And admittedly I am from time to time - no doubt about that. I'm not a sweet-talker, I guess.
But not this time, unfortunately. And no, I don't think I have to read CuriousGirl's 97 other postings before I react to this one - as little as CG has bothered to read my 600+ postings before matter-of-factly indicating my lack of ability to read...
I didn't read CG's posting as just a harmless little fantasy-fetish - on the contrary I read it as something very real to her. Well, castration-fetish can be fair and square if consensual. But CG's posting triggered me, because of her honesty - her scary honesty. She meant what she wrote... if not she has a grand future in fiction-writing anyway... CG can back off all she wants.
Understand where I'm coming from here, please!
I know how far some Asian trans*women will actually be willing to go in self-mutilation to please a partner - to be accepted as a partner. I have many many many times discussed SRS with my transsexual friends, and I have quite a few times heard the horrible point of view: "I would be castrated and do SRS if it would please my partner..."
That scares the shit out of me, because these girls are so vulnerable and so eager to get a partner who loves them that they will be willing to let that partner make such a decision.
Maybe CG doesn't wanna castrate anyone, but she did touch a nerve that I cannot expect most of you to understand, because basicly very few of you have ever had a conversation with a trans*woman (sorry to pull a wee bit of "rank" here - but I have to, to make my point stick - I'm not bullshitting).
Add to this the political struggle that some of my Danish trans*friends have to ensure that trans*women can have their legal gender changed without cutting their nuts off... this may be slightly off-topic, but in the end it touches the same nerve... so to speak.
Thirdly, I HATE it, when trans*woman (with or without balls) are considered a fetish and dumb little objects. They are not. It really pisses me off like... and I'm sorry, that's just how it is, ladies.
So if I stepped on CG Babcock's toes, then too bad - she already did step back, and that's totally expectable and understandable.
By the way CG, I must grant you that your icy reply was well-written and reeked of honest hatred... ;-) Keep your sharp knives in your drawer, please, baby... ;-)
Peace
H aka Niles ;-)
And yes, I know, it would have worked better if I could truly have called you CC instead of CG... :-) So be it...
