“A place to discuss the more positive aspects of being transgender, with an aim toward gaining an understanding of how gender works for all of us.”


One of the things I'm involved in is academic research, specifically into the topic of absenteeism.

I have a number of Google Alerts set up to report to me daily on new publications of facets of this topic.

Today, one of my Alerts pointed at The Joyful Transman’s Blog where the most recent entry is entitled–funnily enough–“Absenteeism.”

So, here’s a headsup for you.

There are only three posts so far–the most recent from a couple of days ago–and it’s probably a good idea to read the introductory ones first to understand more about the blogger and where they’re coming from.

Interesting mix

Everything about transgender is paradoxical, but to see that you have to step back a little, don't think 'Transman' has got there yet.

I wonder if HE will get more comments?

Interestingly, many of the Tmen I know are sort of angry and aggressive seeming. One who calls himself "BEAR" is completely non functional, in my opinion. Still, one can hope that things will improve.

I know of one person, on psychforums.com that thinks being transgender is a delusional state, and at times, I am inclined to agree.

Much piece

Delusional State

And . . . what human endeavor isn't delusional? Aren't we all 99% whimsy?

Or maybe I just got caught up

Or maybe I just got caught up in the publish-or-perish world and in the meantime either forgot the information it takes to log in or Blogspot changed so much that it's no longer recognising me. (I don't recall having had to log into Google in order to log in to Blogspot before, but then Computer Science isn't my field.) I'm so terribly sorry that your time was wasted by my incompetence. I suppose that just lends credence to the notion that we trans people are all delusional.
