People realise it's a drawn on beard right? right?

Wait wait wait. Let's not freak out here over misplaced articles. The spirit of the quote is correct - i.e. - facial hair (or lack thereof) is not a determining factor of a person's "TRANSGENDERED" status, which covers the entire spectrum of gender identity issues.

In point of fact, while you may be correct technically (read: grammatically), in stating "It's not a noun. It's an adjective.", one could easily argue that it is THAT description that is more "dehumanizing" as adjectives are typically supporting personal, subjective opinions. And if Transgendered is just an "opinion", then... draw out the logical conclusions. I think you're intelligent enough to see the nuances of what you're implying, which is why I'm posting a reply.

I would state that "Transgendered" is a state of being and therefore not open to outside interpretation, which I believe was the poster's intent, and one that I would, to a certain extent, agree with. Certainly in this case. Unless you're an avid Duck Dynasty Fan or Amish, I don't think having a beard / facial hair determines that you're a man... boobs or not.

Nope. Just talking about grammar and semantics.

"Transgender people" is helpful to the way trans people are treated and seen "transgenders" is not.

"Transgendered" is also not a word, while we're on it, because 'transgender' is not a verb either.

I would hardly say that adjectives typically describe opinions, either. That's kind of a reach.

Lol...have you ever thought about becoming an English teacher?

I agree with seanchai that this is her choice - and she can be whoever she chooses. Bravo.

But i must also agree with Rallycola that such pictures - peering behind the curtain of the role created by a pornstars s - can sometimes be somewhat shocking. Porn fan want their fantasies undiluted by the reality of the person doing the acting for them and it is rather similar for those who see escorts. They don't want their delight ruffled by hearing about the hardships and private troubles of their brief date.

Sad but too often true.

(Personally i always try to engage with girls i see as a punter. I find I like them even more when i discover the people they are behind the facade of their profession. But i also understand that this is, perhaps, an unusual trait.)

non belle... tu non delicatus.

Yeah, but then I realized that nobody wants a crazy tranny teaching their kids.

OK... so you jump on somebody for basically a "grammatical" (opinion) error, which you say is, dehumanizing, and then use an unflattering (opinion) term that many, many more persons would find highly objectionable.

Well, that makes perfect sense.

Anyway... again, technically (opinion) correct... and I don't want to argue the finer (opinion) points of grammar. I just wanted to point out that the person you quoted was, in spirit, correct.

Dude in the background though is like gasp...

I do love that expression on his face. Makes you wonder what Danni was wearing for the whole outfit.

In all fairness, I am assuming this is your source...

An interesting article and well written, although I do not agree with it entirely... I think it borders on some sort of elitism and academic exercise which, in the long run, is pointless. But, you know... HuffPo... must be true.
