Hank:

considering to throw myself into a self-financed PhD-study at Honkong University, ... on transsexuality here in good old Indonesia

Hank, my man, go right ahead. Your research will be an original piece of work, a study with materials based on your first hand experience. It will not be the usual dry, drowsy sheaf of papers, with little relation to reality. Charge...

The courage that YOU show is NOTHING compared to the guts of a transsexual woman!

That statement is absolutely true. Men, who have achieved great things, who are really macho, even they feel nerous about what other people will think. The Transwomen wage a lifelong war on such concepts. Thats why I admire them so much. (I dont play pocket pool, though! )
