This should be in the "Just for fun" section.

What's that supposed to mean? Supporting trans lives and rights is an integral part of being in the kink community and thus belongs right here. I certainly hope that I am misinterpreting your reply.

SJG, as a queer, masculine of center cis woman who loves a lot of trans folks, thanks for saying something.

I don't think you've misinterpreted anything.

@SJG: thank you for posting this. I would say though, you may be surprised how much you can relate to the life and struggles of a trans person. There are for sure aspects that you could not understand without also being trans, but there's some stuff you probably would. In some ways, adversity is adversity.

I myself have been surprised a few times by the things I could relate to. I'm a cis woman, but my voice is a bit lower pitch than usual for a lady, and I get misgendered on the phone sometimes. It sucks, but it's something I can relate to trans and NB people on. In a way, that stuff helps to endear me to trans folks, makes me feel connected to them, and like I might be able to understand some of their struggle.

Thank you for posting this.

There seems to be an element to our humanity that wants a constant, a 'norm.' It manifests frequently in ego and ethnocentricity. A side effect i've seen/expereinced is a sort of internal roll of the eyes when someone different asserts their equal importance as a part of life and living, or even simply presents.

i've come to think of the inclination for sameness, homogeneity, as a kind of evolutionary death wish (bear with me lol). To me, "life" and "living" involves looking/listening, seeing/hearing and responding to those we see/hear. But there seems a universal tendency against those aspects of 'living.' i've seen in my self and others that we want to define, label things. Which seems a necessary part of communication and existence to me, but those "labels" also tend to make us less inclined to keep looking and listening, and thus seeing and hearing what is. Instead, we respond to the label, memory, idea of the person vs who and what actually is. i question if that is "living?" Thus my notion of "death wish."

As i see it, life is replete with infinite variation and variety, and living is taking the opportunity existence presents to see, hear, experience and interact with the wonderful diversity of what is.
