[nysprod]

Beyonce is trans?...wow.

[Ms.Stepford]

I honestly don't like it either, but I'm really just a whore, so I don't bother to criticize mortals on their conception of the devine.

[runround04]

Beyonce is trans?...wow.

Nope, shes 100% male according to this pic. lol

(I still would:salad)

[Ms.Stepford]

That is a great picset though and if you adhere to it, I'll never silently judge you as an idiot and then ignore you because my friends who get it are way cooler.

Yes. If you make any of those mistakes I will look at you like you're an idiot. Promise.

Ill have you know I am an Idiot, but not for any of those reasons, adjust your look towards me accordingly. lol

[Ms.Stepford]

Okay :) I'll wait until you give me a different reason :p

[Jackal]

She's really hot but her music is trash.

I don't like it, but I think it's something our culture has developed. I know it won't be going away soon (especially in the porn industry). I'm pretty sure most people who use it outside of the porn industry are just uneducated on the topic. Transgender terms aren't pushed enough and don't get enough air time on the television.

Sure you can look up a bunch of stuff on the internet, but if you're just an average cis person who isn't curious at all about it, there's a good chance you don't know anything of how to address a transgender person. If anything they might only know the term shemale from random ads/categories on porn sites.

Look up Paris Lees sometime if you are trying to help an uneducated person understand the basics about transgender. She is a talented writer and damn cute transwoman.

I just meant the average cis population in general. They need to push some kind of programming or something if they want to get through the majority of people. Hell, make a kids episode of something of how we're all equal no matter what gender and explain it. That would probably get the radical Christian's wilded up, despite their lessons of treating everyone equal.

The problem is you have to search or read. I'm saying you shouldn't have to. There should be something on the television all the time out of all the channels, but there's barely nothing. They try to cover it up and hide it. -_-'

I hear what you're saying. Things like after-school specials and pop cultural storylines really make a huge difference (probably second after knowing someone IRL who is a member of a misunderstood minority). It is a bit like the black female Star Trek character (not a fan of the old show, not sure of the character's name) who inspired young girls who would go on to become real life astronauts years later or people becoming more accepting of interracial relationships because the character's relationship with Kirk. I have talked with some people who said they lost their transphobia after seeing the movie Soldier's Girl which was based on a true story.

[Ms.Stepford]

So few people actually know a trans person in everyday life that we could use more positive cultural PR for sure.

Are you from Buffalo?

[Ms.Stepford]

Are you from Buffalo?

Ummm guess!

[Jackal]

Ummm guess!

I'd say so after noticing the background of your pic. I was born and raised there; I miss the food!! Hope things are well for you there.

Oh and the Ruff Buff is new to me. Beats Nickel City as a nickname, imo.

[Ms.Stepford]

I wish I could eat more of the food!


But yeah, I'm a native who stays for the cheap rent, and I'm sad to say I have to leave before I catch a case or a stalker.

[Jackal]

Stay safe, I got mugged a few times there. The cops are lazy as can be as well.

Haven't you claimed to be from Texas in the past?

[Ms.Stepford]

I have never claimed to be from Texas.

For some reason, it says I'm from Dallas, on my SY page, but Omar shot those in Buffalo.

Oh, I know about all that.

They just showed up two days late to a call about me fighting one of my best friends topless and drunk in the community garden.
