Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
I showed the picture KenderWizard made for me when I was in hospital in February. She looked at it for a long time and told me I was very, very lucky to have such friends. I agreed.
*hugs*

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
It happens girl, Even to me and I just got into the whole dating thing. (Not that im super young, just not that good looking.)
If you were full girl mode, then why did she say "guy"? Kind of rude IMO.
You may cactch more then Lix....
Well that is just one more step in the right way. CA baned it anyway.Poems!
Awesome people saying awesome things.
( Please pardon any garbled posts. I prefer face to face communication then text, and I also don't read whole threads, so I may just put in my 2cp.)

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Hmm, all I can think of is that maybe since they don't really know what it's about they're focusing their worries on something that's more tangible for them. (Monies?)
*offers hugs*
I hope the appointment itself goes well! When is it?
Oh, no, dorm mates aren't really a thing here.
Aw.
Mrr, that sounds really frustrating.
Awwwwwwwww.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
I wouldn't go so far as to say rude......ignorant definitely, but you have to think, most people when they see a biological male in girl's clothing, don't automatically make the jump to, "They actually are, and are trying to be, a woman." Most people think, cross-dresser; not transgender. It is just an assumption they make in their heads.....and you know what assuming does.
Of course, I am not saying it is right......more accidental idiocy.My Extended Signature, Check it out!

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
This (though the teacher is female). The last time she met me I was male, though trying for a certain degree of androgyny. At the moment I'm all girl though, and it was a little frustrating. From her I'd have been okay with it - perfectly understandable. It was just the fact the she accidentally outed me to everyone around. Though no-one reacted, so I'm not sure they even noticed.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Starting to write things down, I notice I'm once again lost in definitions and meanings. I always thought I understood what the different words like "transgender" and "transexual" mean, but maybe I don't. Anyone willing to explain the different labels to me, again?
Now, I know there is a difference made between one's sexual orientation (if one's sexually interested in either males or females) and one's gender (whether one identifies as male or female). One's sex being whether one has the physical bits and one's gender being what one feels like inside. I always assumed this meant that transsexuals would want SRS and hormones etc, while a transgender person wouldn't per se. However, given that I've seen people who've gone through SRS and taking hormones identify as transgender, clearly this isn't how the label is used. What am I missing?

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Oh, that's rough luck. It sounds exactly like my (attempted) dating history, and it sucks, I know!
Hooray for starting lessons! Sorries for accidentally being outed. Hopefully you're right, and not many people noticed. It definitely didn't sound purposeful, however; probably just ignorance. It's a learning opportunity!
It's next Wednesday. We've got over a week to go. I'm hoping it goes well, too. I think that you're right about why they're focusing on money so much, actually, now that I think about it.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
I have to wonder if anyone has luck meeting people at LGBTsoc and the like with how often I've run into people bemoaning missed connections.
And some groups try to differentiate between having gender dysphoria and going/having gone through SRS. Kind of surprised it's not in the OP's lexicon though to some extent, haha.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Yay! Well done!
Damn, that's annoying, but I'd be surprised if many people paid much attention, and y'know, from the way you look, I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of them was like "Snigger, the teacher just totally called that girl a dude. Awkward!"
This made me smile on a bad day. You showed it to whom, your doctor?

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Even sex is a lot more complicated than just what genitals someone has.
The two terms have switched meanings at least once; and they're often used interchangeably, so I wouldn't fuss too much about which one you use. Transgender these days also sorta has a meaning of being an umbrella term for everyone who deviates from their assigned gender; while transsexual tends to be a bit more specific for people who do physical transition stuff. But since these labels are mostly self-applied it doesn't really matter that much. Use the one you feel best with.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Oh yeah, and this. Some people try to define words depending on pre-/post-op. It's possible some even differentiate between whether or not the person is on HRT.
The whole thing has gotten really complicated. It makes it hard to discuss the medical aspects of things sometimes because if you try to say male-bodied some transwomen will disagree that they have male bodies.Jude P.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Indeed, I imagine that might be part of why some people were like "nah, we're going to just go with trans* and accept that we'll have to explain our terminology a bit more often but there's less context-dependent miscommunication that can occur as a result."
At least, if I'm remembering my hypothetical fever dreams of the past correctly.

I don't like "trans*" much myself because I expect a footnote.
