Hi again ''The Skeezyks'' and many thanks for posting the links.

I guess some day, in the future, (I hope) People will accept folk who aren't what they see as ''normal''. It's taken a lot of years to get to this point, where we have quite a lot of transgender's ''coming out''

This is a way forward but, there's always gonna be the doubters. It still has a kinda stigma, as has mental illness, though I'm not for one minute trying to say that transgendering is in any way a mental illness, far from it. However, and in my experience, the terrible strife and self hate CAN result in deep depression.

In the UK we've have an ongoing series of documentaries concerning children as young as 7 feeling a kind of depression and sadness, as a direct result of them knowing they are in the wrong physical body. I honestly believe you are born with a predisposition to be what you are or what you will become. It's just a huge shame that the majority of ''joe public'' don't understand and basically are too scared to embrace their fellow beings, warts and all!!!

I knew from a very early age I didn't quite ''fit in''. I was born and raised on an isolated farm and therefor had no contact with other children. There was me surrounded by a 100 cows, chickens, piggies and horses, as far as I was concerned they were my ''friends''
When it came time to attend the very small village school, I honestly didn't know what had hit me!! To cut the story short, I didn't act as the other children did, because I'd never learned to share, I'd literally take (with some childish aggression) what toys I wanted from the other children and didn't have a clue that my behaviour was ''bad''!! I had to see a child Psych Dr at the age of 5 and I remember that to this day. The result was that I was ''normal'' (LOL WOT!!) but I just needed to learn to share. So, was the very late diagnosis of BPD and bi~polar there way back then???? I know it was.

I feel it's the same way with issues of transgender, I honestly know that people suffering for what they know is right for them, should be heard and NOT judged. Nobody who walks on this earth is truly ''normal'' because behind their closed doors they do things which could be called ''weird''!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry to ramble on, but it's a subject I never discuss IRL as I don't like the negative and sometimes spiteful comments.

I send you, should anybody be reading this, LOVE and HUGS, as ever.
