the world, it be achanging..right before our eyes. And while it might not impact us yet, for some it is, like this boy, as he can testify.
you know, I do hope someday people wont look at me like I have three heads when I say I have dated FtMs. I dont get the startle reaction anymore for dating "females". And most people kinda get the concept of butch women/male ID'd butches when I explain what kind of "woman" I am attracted to. But I still get the startle reaction when I say I have dated trans folks. But then again, I get it when I say I have dated bio men too.
One person even asked how she would know what gender someone was, if she saw me out with someone who "looked" male.
I said, "oh honey, dont worry your little head about it. Just say hi and act like you are a nice person and assume s/he is too."
sorry for the slight derail...
