If he is really looking to learn, Google is his friend. If he wanted our opinions, blogs exist. No reason to make a thread about it in the Lounge to expose his ignorance on the subject. And this site being really gay we'd all be happy to teach him. But the pompous ignorance shown in the OP resulted in the hostile remarks. Come hard, get hit harder

END

...does it really matter if he makes a thread instead of a blog?

I get how you could be offended by some parts of the OP but that seems like a pretty weird thing to be bothered by.

I don't think OP was meaning to be offensive. I personally believe a big reason why there is so much confusion and ignorance amongst queer and non-queer people about trans people is because trans is grouped in with sexualities despite trans being a gender identity. If trans people were grouped differently, maybe people would understand trangenderism more because they wouldn't apply sexual dymanics to it like they do with gay, lesbian, and bisexual.

But as already mentioned, T is grouped in with queer identities because it falls outside of what is considered the "norm".

Some people are too sensitive instead of telling you WHY it's included they report this thread.

It's included because they're gay I think

WTF

And like I said most, if not all of us, would be happy to answer you but this thread is completely unnecessary and the way it's worded is very offensive. If you really wanted our opinion, a blog would've sufficed. We have had too many threads like this that always leads to messes

There is nothing offensive about it, im sorry if you misconstrued what i am trying to ask here but thats not my fault. I don't have a blog so why would i post it on there? Its a lot easier for me to just ask a question on here. Instead of being so goddamn defensive maybe yall should help explain and educate so more people like me would understand

Just because you may not get bothered by the OP doesn't mean everyone else will have the same reaction as you
