Well there you go. I felt exactly like you. Zero libido. Zero desire. But, because of a zillion reasons, I got to a point where I knew I didn't need a man/woman r'ship to justify where I am in the world before some dude appeared in front of me and swept me off my vulnerable feet. If it ever happens....great but I don't think it ever will.

As a resilient and caring woman you can get through any storms that arise because you are happier and free.

I am accepting of reality....

But also I have seen it is not just transgender...


Except, oh and there's some who come to mind and bring a smile to my face,  Gay men who are kind and caring and love their sisters and mothers and good to their women friends.

 

Lily..my family will never be the same ever again. I accept it won't be and I'm adjusting to it because if I don't it will cripple me.

As for accepting reality everybody has their own and they can live it, as long as it doesn't impact on mine. But the misogyny of it means that men, transexuals who've been around for years...have crossed the line of respect, dignity and safety. They're crossing it because they want what women have and they're entitled enough to expect us all to bow down and let them in

I also know there are exceptions. Men who just want to live with their fetish and not step on toes. I know one. He knows he's a man, is critical of trans activists and is getting on with his new life (gender reassignment at 60). But those men are not in the protests you see around the world. They don't carry signs that say "a good terf is a dead terf.
So I'll say it is only transgender. I think the lgb has been hoodwinked and gaslit into accepting tq and now their entire community is tainted with tq activism.

NZ has a coalition government made up of National, Act and New Zealand First. The leader of NZF this week proposed a gender bill to biologically  define women in law.

The trans activists won't go down without a fight.
