Thought this would be interesting especially for those who like their women strong and muscular.

As many of you know I am from Michigan originally, played college football, and worked out a lot. I was familiar with Matt ("Kroc") and have friends who knew him. They had nothing but great stuff to say about him.

I wish Janae nothing but the best in her new life.

With estrogen therapy, she expects to drop from 240 pounds down to 160. At 42 years old, that would mean saying goodbye to powerlifting and bodybuilding forever, though she says she won’t miss it. Once she’s lost the weight, she’d like to compete in triathlons or mountain biking. However, losing physical strength is a real, practical issue that has held her back. Janae has attempted five transitions in the past eight years. Each time, she underwent estrogen therapy, lost 40 to 50 pounds, then bailed on the process. She learned that when she’s not as massive, men stop deferring to her and she loses the peace of mind of being fully capable of protecting herself. Anti-transgender violence is alarmingly common and a major concern for Janae or any other transgender person. According to the Human Rights Campaign, 17 transgender people have been murdered in 2015 in the U.S. as of this writing. More than once, she’s feared physical violence when she was out at night dressed as Janae.

“I was at a club a few months ago, and five guys followed me to my car,” she says. “They slowed down when they got close. The only thing that stopped them was how big I was.”

(Sadly the comments are mostly ignorant and the quoted scenario happens far too often... Fucking assholes. )

From CNN. "Nicole Maines: Get to know TV's first transgender superhero." She has a twin brother as well. Her story is very inspiring.

Chloe Anderson played volleyball for Santa Ana College and the University of California, Santa Cruz.

There's another article on Chloe that goes into some of the hardships she encountered (including ignorant haters) while competing at UCSC. Playing any sport at that level is extremely difficult. Adding assholes to the mix doesn't help.

Chloe is a winner. She will be successful and make a difference in this world no matter what she does.

This post on Chloe should have stayed at the top of the front page. It's my fault for posting something stupid that moved it off. Wasn't thinking. Too bad we don't have the ability to delete old posts. I would get rid of many of mine.

Many celebrities are coming out to oppose the planned "Straight Pride" march intended to be a response to the traditional "Gay Pride" events held in June. Here are a couple of the better responses:

Brad Pitt (Cant' believe he's 55! That means he was “Born Before 1985.” I’ve got an Esquire Magazine sitting on my desk right now with him on the cover. Motherfuckers, try telling him he looks like an “84 year old man” like in all the fake ads you promote for Home Refinancing, AARP, Stair Lifts, Viagra, or whatever. ).

Mr. Pitt requested that his name and picture be removed from all materials the group behind the misguided “Straight Pride” march were distributing to promote their event. The group had used his image without his permission. The actor made clear he does not support anything about the “Straight Pride” movement. Damn, I’m gonna watch Fight Club later.

Chris Evans also called out the group earlier this week on Twitter after three men in Boston promoted their own parade.

Evans, 37, tweeted: “Wow, the number gay/straight pride parade false equivalencies are disappointing. For those who don’t understand the difference, see below. Instead of going immediately to anger (which is actually just fear of what you don’t understand) take a moment to search for empathy and growth.”

Evans continued his condemnation towards “straight pride” events on Twitter by sharing a post from author James Bell about how misguided the gatherings are:

“There’s nothing I’ve ever had to fight for, or struggle against because I’m straight,” Bell wrote in the post Evans urged his followers to read. “And therefore, there isn’t any reason to take pride in it. Grateful for the privileges I get? Sure. But pride? I don’t see it. What I do see is that this parade is misnamed. It’s not a ‘Straight Pride Parade.’ It should be called a ‘I’m a homophobic piece of shit‘ parade.”

Don’t expect to see me marching in it. While I’m married and consider myself “straight” (what exactly is “straight” anyway?) my past relationships have included those with transwomen and I’m attracted to cute feminine guys. I’m sure the organizers of this event wouldn’t consider that “straight.”

I oppose this march for all of the reasons the others do. And what an insult to my LGBT friends!!! Maybe the organizers need to attend a Transgender Day of Remembrance and sit through a reading of all the victims of violence and details of what happened to them? There have been three transwomen brutally murdered in Texas just recently.
