    Hi all, I always note where I grew up and live because of it being the gayest city. Perhaps I have neighbors on this board 😊

    I started seeing trans men and women at least 40 years ago on the streets when it was unpopular.  There were physical attacks. That’s what I based my post on. 

    My heart goes out to you who have to deal with this extra pain for the straight spouse.

    No - It's not too late. It's not hopeless. Even there, there's something I can do. I just have to find the will. Ikiru (1952), film directed by Akira Kurosawa

    I am see a LOT more MTF trans than FTM -  Why do so many men want to BE women? 
    I, too, see a lot of this HOTMESS as a fad and like many faddish social phnomenoms (sp) I do think it will energize a vigorous backlash.

    I further have the distinct feeling that our civilization is unraveling at the seams. The climate change, famines, epidemics and just plain Mother Nature will triumph in the end.
