Thread Name: BS: About This Whole Transgender Thing....
Subject: RE: BS: About This Whole Transgender Thing....
Well, I can honestly say (NOT false modesty) I certainly do not fall into any 'pretty' category. I am bad on the ears and on the eyes lol. But my friends still like me for who I am and that is why this world has hope that some day everyone will have their place that is respected by everyone else. Being jealous of me would be very silly for several reasons, except in envying the people I have in my life. They are the stars. Britain does have talent, with much heart :)

Anyone who has seen me or knows me would honestly tell you I have no pretense to being beautiful. I even wrote a song about "The Ten Pint Bitch" because men only fancy me after ten pints! lol I get the pick of the crop at the end of any night of numpties ;)

Hand on my heart. I have never had a member here or in public that treated me with less than respect to my face. I would like to think they do likewise behind my back too. I have so much respect for them for that. I am not an easy concept to get your head around sometimes. A M2F transsexual (I prefer transwomen personally) who is gay and sings female songs in a not so female voice, and male songs in a not so male voice. Who looks more like the Ugly Duchess than anything beauteous. But I think it matters not a jot to them because we all love the music. It's the common denomonator that makes us all alike in many ways. We have more things that makes us similar than dissimilar as individuals.

I am truly blessed to have a daughter and granddaughter who think the world of me too. I have so much help from singer/songwriters here in the UK and I am priveliged to be able to say I am friends with a couple. What's not to be happy about? :)
