What's worse is putting it in quotation marks, which smacks of ungendering.

As for my "they are people" comment: of course "it's a whole lot more than that." Obviously, my brief reply was about the nature of his unspecific question, not an actual statement that there is nothing more to transwomen. As for "some groups just happen to be more awesome than others," in this context that has to be one of the most inexplicable generalizations I have seen posted on this site. It far surpasses things like "there are no shemales in my country."

Apparently, you have a little bit of an attitude/ego problem if someone wants to just have someone feel more relaxed being new. My reference to 'gurls' as well as the quotation marks was one: the word itself was used to me on a number of occasions by TG's (or do you have an issue with me using TG's?) Second: the quotation marks were to have him know that I was referring to TG's. If on the other hand I've insulted or spoke out of turn in reference to any Transgendered, crossdresser or pre op. I apologize. All that said, I see many times where you try to shine over other comments, drag down other males & try to monopolize threads. So, to honor your tenure & your vast knowledge, I'll no longer reply to future threads, or any other comments from you.
