CalperniaAddams Says:
Nov 17, 2008 - I'm not different. Those people should stand up for themselves, too. And "pimp"? Seriously? I hope you have all daughters.
CalperniaAddams Says:
Nov 17, 2008 - You have no idea what you're talking about.
CalperniaAddams Says:
Nov 17, 2008 - "WyteRabbyt - you dont hafta lie. but u also dont hafta answer..." You have no idea what you're talking about. Try editing your life for even a week. You'll start to resent it. I'm just demanding human respect. If that's more than people can give without me having to lie to them, then too bad.

Nov 17, 2008 - Scratch that, actully, in a more simple form for you... If you killed 100 people with a hammer and you were released on bail, you are saying people souldnt kill you "because they need to forget it" urm, NO. Why dont you kill 100 people with a hammer and lets see, starting with me... Please.

Nov 18, 2008 - When people ask if a surgery hurt, they mean the recovery pain afterwards, not the actual process.

Nov 18, 2008 - What do you look for in a man and would you be interested in a younger man?
CalperniaAddams Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - If they're going to pry into my life, they're going to have to say what they mean.
CalperniaAddams Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - The most important thing is that indefinable chemistry, but basically just someone who is kind hearted, funny and confident.
magnet101 Says:
Nov 19, 2008 - So...you're saying looks are of no importance? And have you ever dated/slept with a straight guy?
IKFKSwitch Says:
Nov 20, 2008 - ROFL!@ "Don't ever ask a human being this question." I always used to retort "Why? You wanna fuck me?" I think my other favorite one of these types of things, and one which really isn't mean spirited as much as it is short sighted, is the "I never would have known." Yes. I know. That is the idea. But thanks for the compliment on my ability to pass, that always feels good. Ironically enough, most folks step over themselves to be polite. The people I mostly caught grief from were queers.

Nov 20, 2008 - You are hysterical! And gorgeous! I work at the Ali Forney Center in NYC and one of my young charges and I cracking up over this. :)

Nov 20, 2008 - Also, I am a heavily tattooed woman working on a full bodysuit, and I've been tempted for a long time to make a brochure with commonly-asked-stupid-questions to hand out to people when they ask them. One of my favorites is "Are you pierced DOWN THERE?" (alternate version: "Do you have your vagina pierced?") Talk about your shockingly inappropriate personal questions. Oh, and I'm going to use the phrase "whoever you get your learnin' from" for the rest of my life!!

Nov 21, 2008 - Love you Calpernia your are truly a beautiful lady!!!! P.S. I crossdress and consider myself trapped in the wrong body. Karen

Nov 21, 2008 - Question #8 is a piece of shit question. "Do you date straight guys or gay guys". Just what the FUCK gives you buttcracks the idea that MTF transsexuals are attracted to males at all? Most MTFs are femme lesbians trapped in men's bodies. They are usually attracted to other femme lesbians. Not interested in men or masculine women, but only in feminine women. I don't blame an MTF if she has to molest a girl to death to prove to society that she is attracted to females only and not to males.
upsetpisslam Says:
Nov 21, 2008 - CalperinaAddams, you rock. I wouldn't lay a finger on you even if you went to extremely socially-taboo lengths [i.e. raping female-born women] to prove that you aren't at all attracted to men. I don't have a gender identity, I am neither male nor female, nor anything in between -- even though I have male genitals. So I can empathize with the hell society puts you through. As far as my sexual preference, I am attracted to females between 35 and 65. I am not at all sexually-interested in men.
upsetpisslam Says:
Nov 21, 2008 - Another thing. Most MTFs want to be accepted as women without having to remove their genitalia. Most MTFs would rather keep their scrotums and penises and still be considered women. Sadly, due to society's sick fucking rules, this won't happen anytime soon, if ever. They have a hard enough time being conisdered female even after surgery.
upsetpisslam Says:
Nov 21, 2008 - Also, I support MTFs to the extreme but I hate FTMS. This is because I support reverse discrimination. Society treats tomboys and FTMs better than MTFs and girly-boys. In retaliation, I have an extreme advocacy for MTFs and any non-female-born person who has feminine/unmasculine characteristics -- but at the same time, I despite those who are born-female but chose to behave in unfeminine/masculine ways. I am for reverse discrimination. Fuck society.
upsetpisslam Says:
Nov 21, 2008 - "So I can empathize with the hell society puts you through." Sorry, I phrased this incorrectly. It should read "I can empathize with you and the hell you've suffered from via society irrational gender stereotypes"
