Hi Rohag,
Interesting quote. It reminds me, in part, of several people I used to know. One of them had a saying about “powdering someone’s butt” but I prefer not to speak of her here as I think she had good intentions. In fact I feel guilty and somewhat embarrassed even posting this although I do not think she will read it (not in the usual sense anyway since she has transitioned....)..Have you felt obliged to maintain relationships with individuals with those or similar characteristics? Have you also ever received kindness from any of these individuals or were they quick to judge you and what sometimes happens along with that.. I am guessing that you did not encounter an individual who had those tendencies as a “medical provider” In “real life” etc.. I hope not No need to reply (feel free to PM me with a reply also )
