I will never ever use transgender as a self description

If for no other reason than Virginia Prince himself told me exactly why he coined it and exactly what it meant and it's not remotely inclusive of transsexual

Transvestite misogynistic, homophobic racist, well off white guy in a dress?

Bingo!

Not to beat a dead horse... but that voice!

How on earth do you expect to convince anyone "you're a woman" as in adult human female if every single time you open your mouth a grown-ass-man boldly steps out?

And its so much more than high pitched its the prosody, the cadence, the wording and vibe

So I'm not surprised they went on to push non op and I'm guessing was non op or very very late in getting surgery... which at this point is neither here nor there given how far past reason the whole thing has become.

But that voice? Seriously?

I kept trying to pin down why I knew the name but coming up black because she wasn't an HBS and she wasn't front and center with the Resistance... but I still knew that name.

Dana was at the time pushing intersexed issues and claiming to be intersexed and not really a transsexual

I appreciate her arguments for letting transsexual be the thing apart it always has been, despite decades of effort by transgender activists to erase any difference.
But that voice!
I'm sorry, that's just laziness to do nothing about it, and worse, it completely negates almost everything she says!
