The L and T aren't compatible, it is a troubled union anyways even if the left hadn't become so ironically intolerant of wrongthink. Although I don't know anything about the "drop the T" movement.

You know though, if you want to change hearts and minds, influence people, you're not going to do that from the outside of these organizations. On reddit I post on places like Tumblr sometimes. I might get 20 downvotes sometimes but it reaches people, it's worth it.

I could stay in the subs that love and agree with me (I mean, relatively more than tumblr) but I wouldn't be changing any opinions there.

    I'm transgender

    No shit, you tell everyone all the time. It seems like attention seeking behavior. Do you have an identity or personality besides being trans?

    sexuality and gender identity ain't the same thing

    Uhhh, k.

    You're a programmer, you couldn't be a programmer if your logic sucked. You can never be a girl, we don't have the technology. Lesbians don't want you cause you're a guy. L and T not compatible. Never will be.

    I'm not your enemy though, my favorite book is Steel Beach by John Varley, I wish you could be a girl but I don't like pretending you're one. That's 1984 doublethink shit, girls are guys and guys are really girls.

    Have I told you lately that I sexually identify as a Black lesbian dwarf? I'm getting almost as tired of saying that as when I sexually identified as an avocado. I may need something really gonzo next time.
