Hi there.

You fell into my trap, mua, ha, ha, ha, ha.

But seriously...

Since you are starting a new blog, why don't you also give it a new purpose and direction in addition to what you were doing before?

Like what?

Well, why don't you call out to others of the tg comunity and try to get them to unite like i stated in my "Abused women..." thread?

And try get them to be involved in the cause, take the problem to them since it IS their problem, if one of us is attacked, we all suffer, do not insite violence but sending letters to the police commisionner about police dis-respecting members of our community, and writing letters to state, and federal officials about the problem and to get them to not only aknoledge the problem but to address it, one letter will be ignored, 100 may raise an eye brow, but 1000 or more will get someone's attention, even if it very little is accomplished, it is a step in the right direction, then it may be followed by more steps, as your blog grows and gains popularity and the unity of the tg comunity reads your new blog, what do you think?

Yeah, i know, it's not guaranteed to happen, and if it does it won't happen over night, but wouldn't it be great if it did?

If you do it, it could happen, but if you don't we both know it won't happen, not from your blog anyway.

But you know that such a voice is needed, you have the blog setup already, you have the will to write it, all you need is to do it and stick to it, for yourself and all the comunity, it won't be easy, but what is in this life? And the hardest things in life are also the most rewarding, so what do you say?

Also, in the relatively short time you have been a member here, i have seen your name and statements quoted by many members, you HAVE gained the respect of most of the members of this site and myself included, you earned that respect by speaking your mind and treating everybody with respect even if you didn't agreed with their posts and opinions, if you do the same in your NEW blog you will do fine, believe me.

Hey,

Actually, I do have a focus for my blog, I'm trying to merge what I see as two very different types of trans-related material. On one hand you have sites like this where guys gather and look at trans women and to varying degrees appreciate trans women (at least sexually). On the other you have very political trans-feminist blogs where issues of dating are not really discussed.

My hope is to blend the two and provide a place where trans women can discuss dating and live as trans women, and guys can learn more what is is to actually BE a trans woman.

I will be blogging on some other sites with a focus on anti-violence. I will also be providing information on my own blog on how counter violence, and why it is so hard to get the authorities to actually respond to issues of anti-trans violence.

Thanks for reading!

I've had a brief glance through your new Blog. I think it's a great idea. I look forward to seeing how you develop it.

Best regards

Hi there.

As I said before in my "battered women... " thread there is a REAL need for unity in the trans comunity and no one is addressing that, if you don't see what i mean you can ask "I'll be happy to answer".

And why do you belittle yourself with this "Just another Opinionated Tranny" title, why not state: "I am a trans woman with something to say" or something along those lines?

I don't mean to be mean but realistic and i am trying to give constructive criticism, hope you can see that.

I completely agree. But there are some very deep divisions and honestly, trans people come from every imaginable background and have every imaginable goal that calling for a unified trans movement would be like calling for a unified people movement. To address the point of safets - there are a number of post-op trans women who honestly feel that any violence that comes to a pre-/non- op gal is justified (at worst) or who agree that the comfort of cis women in a shelter is more important than the safety of a trans woman with a penis.

My blog title is a smallish joke. Although I am one of many trans women with an opinion on a variety of topics. I'm not an expert on anything aside from my life, so it's mostly just opinion and conclusions drawn from highly unscientific observations.

Hi all.

I think John is right, there is a need for unity and you should try to help with that by posting thing that will educate one part about an other and in the process they will get a better view of the WHOLE tg comunity.

But in the end it is YOUR blog, and YOUR choice, but you SHOULD think about it.

Sandra.
