I am a transsexual, and I have several times contemplated suicide because of fear that I would never be able to truly be myself. Just knowing that there are people fighting for my rights makes me feel better. It's parents, family, and friends that aren't accepting that cause the death of what some estimates say is up to 50% of transgender people. Then on top of that we must deal with the fear of being beaten or killed, just for being who we are. Tell me in societies where women were the dominant sex, or allowed to be soldiers, or perhaps like the Native Americans, who had "new-halfs"; were these people just wrong because they didn't follow some western idea of what a man and women should be? I feel sorry for anyone who grows up so narrow minded that they would think any of this is new. Plus if you think that "sucks" is a curse word, you have never spent any time in or around the military. Lori…I hope you are being sarcastic.

This society is was too permissive. Men should be men and women should be women. If you feel like you have too much feminity then clearly there is something wrong and you need to get it fixed. I'm telling you, this society is way too permissive not only concerning trans people but also with kids being allowed to say certain words like the word "sucks." No kid should be allowed to say such a word especially to their parents. Kids no are allowed to say and do entirely too much and the parents think it's ok. How did this happen? Gays have rights now. How did that happen? I mean I know the history of the gay movement but why was it allowed to go on? There are even kids coming out to their parents being gay or transgendered. There is something wrong wuth society! Transgendered people shouldn’t have any rights. This society is was too permissive. Men should be men and women should be women.
