Hi Bionca and Hank, Thanks for the interesting input. Hank is quite right regarding Quote: gays have been quite successful in changing peoples' mindsets over the last 40 years - unfortunately trans-people have not reaped many fruits from this: Unquote.
I guess society needs time to adapt to any changes concerning sexual behaviour,gender etc. and the over-zealous religious leaders are very unhelpful to say the least. Then we have the conservative, prudent politicians that still practice sex with the lights switched off that prevents any rapid change.
Of course the transgender societies differ immensely in the west compared to Asia but transgender life is certainly very intricate whatever part of the globe we live in. Your first hand views and experiences are very important and of great interest Bionca and once again thanks for sharing this with us. Rgds

These people, who are more often than not in the same group, have chosen to live their entire lives in the dark (middle ages). Unfortunately, they rarely stay in the dark but pop up constantly with a flash light under their chin high lighting their cruel intentions... all in the name of God and "patiotric" glory, of course...

They are either stupid, evil or both... and they are certainly harmful for any good natured progress in almost any field, except, of course, in the skills of blowing up air planes or in the corrupt business world where they bask in their own flash light of perverted moral and ego-intentions.

They are all the same, and untill that generation dies out, we'll have to live with their terror - from what ever side of the globe and under what ever brand they come...

But terrorists they all are... large-economy-size!

The dark ages are right now. And if ever you want to test that theory live the life of a TS. No matter how passable you are, no matter how stealth you live, sooner or later you face discrimination and ignorance.

Here is a sad statement of our times: I am happier now than ever, more secure within myself emotionally and economically, as an escort and adult entertainer. I spent ten years trying to do the "right thing" and pursued a career in management, only to be tossed to the curb five times. Can you imagine what it feels like to have the rug pulled out from under your life year after year? It's demoralizing. And eventually society, in it's own subliminal manner, whispers to you quietly, "be gone oh freakish one", "get out of plain sight."

And so we become the subculture, the 'girl with a secret', the tenants on society's fringe. I've lived with no health insurance for a year, lived many years like this, unprotected and exposed to calamity. My income this week will be only as good as the men who choose to visit me. I may roll in the money, or eek out a week on grapes.

This is our modern world, our enlightened society...and we continue to feed the archaic with our misfit leaders and their evangelical morals.

So right you are... just put your vote the right place in 18 days, dear... put a stop to the fascism in your socalled free society!
