Wanting to be a man of integrity: lost cause?

And was surprised at the response by other FTMs. Apparently he thought we'd all have a good laugh.

Is it just me as to having issue with this? I mean, what happened to wanting to be a man of integrity and respect. Why not stand up for someone and not feed into old stereotype; create a new man that can be a man while recognize and fight against the "isms" of the world?

Or am I just smoking some weird cigars??

It's not a lost cause, Linus. To me, its a large part of what makes a man along with an ethics and value system. I've seen Ftms be assoholes just to try and prove that they're macho - as if that's the manly thing to do. They need their asses kicked with a wake up call.
