Great article

Peter/Penny's story is much like Patrick/Patricia's story, though I'm not as out as Peter/Penny.

I loved the mayor's response. P/P's wife is precious. I decided that I'd like to look at the book and bought it as an eBook, I'll probably do a review for it when it comes up in my reading queue.

Hugs

Happiness is being all dressed up and HAVING some place to go.

"Transgendered males"
TRANSGENDER IS NOT A VERB YOU DUMBASSES! AND IT"S AMAB TRANS PERSON NOT TRANSGENDER MALES! A TRANSGENDER MALE IS AFAB YOU ABSOLUTE IGNORAMUSES!

And who are you to tell someone what they can and cant put on their body? You fucking megalomaniac how dare you try to control someone else just because you're embarrassed. FUCKING CIS PEOPLE *screams*

Note: This is to the article, not the OP. *CONTINUES SCREAMING*

I know who I am, I am me, and I like me ^^
Transgender, Gamer, Little, Princess, Therian and proud :D

Actually...

...that terminology was a direct quote from Lou, Peter/Penny's spouse. I think the BBC authored text surrounding it uses the correct terminology.

Three years ago when the Wail article was written, both they and Peter/Penny were using the terminology transsexual / transvestite. Surprisingly for that publication (which generally hates everyone not in its target demographic and has the editorial policy of "WE'RE DOOMED!"), the comments were largely positive...


As the right side of the brain controls the left side of the body, then only left-handers are in their right mind!
