Monnie, I'm not. I am only speaking for myself. YMMV.

I won't call you Brian if you don't call me Monnie

I think maybe you would get more questions in a real room full of random people. we're kind of self -selecting here in that we are curious people and generally pretty schmart/ejumacated and if we had questions to ask, we've probably already asked them of you or Erica or whoever prompted the question to pop up. And we're also pretty accepting in the main (back to the self-selection thing).

As for the "woman thing" I think it probably just annoys me in they way reformed smoker/drug addicts/born-agains can irritate those who always walked that path. All the equality things we fight for (sometimes) ....like being accepted as a human being whether we choose to wear pants or shave our pits or not ...oh bleugh...

As for the womanly thing, I think it annoys me in the same way reformed druggies and born-agains annoy those who've always walked the path. And embracing differences that shouldn't be -like why can't a woman choose not to shave her pits? It's like a step backwards for some. Bah.

Just because you stutter doesn't mean you're wrong.

Pamela,

Glad you found the happiness you had long been searching for in your life. I know that you weren't completely 'happy' when we were together - and I'm thinking this may be part of the reason why.

While I never wish anyone pain or heartache, I can say truly that I identify with what your wife is feeling - while physical relations is not 'everything' to a relationship - it is a big part of keeping one strong. So, I ask that you cut her a wee bit of slack on that feeling. (Although how she handled it, not exactly the best and grown up way to do so).

May your future bring you what you want and what you deserve - happiness - just like everyone else.

Warmly -

Kellie

That's just what I thought earlier!

Dagney · 02-10-2014, 03:19 PM

Yep - it's me - I hide a lot - but I'm around

Pamela · 02-10-2014, 06:30 PM

Hello Dagney. How nice to see you again. We've missed you around here.

Love

Pam

Dagney · 02-10-2014, 10:23 PM

Thanks everyone - won't hijack Pamela's thread - but will update folks later

Ya'll behave!

The Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini approved.

Quote:

Gender change operations are legal in Iran according to a fatwa - or religious ruling - pronounced by the late Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, spiritual leader of the 1979 Islamic revolution. The law contrasts with the strict rules governing sexual morality under the country's Sharia legal code, which forbids homosexuality and pre-marital sex.

Interesting... From the comments:

Quote:

I read an article about the sex reassignment surgeries in Iran a few years ago. The word does not mean the same thing there as it means here in the west. I'm sure the western style operations are available for the wealthy, but often sex change only means the removal of male genitalia with no hormone treatment. This explains why statistically Iranian surgeons outperform everyone else so massively in this field. Also, the patients are often gay men who are more or less forced to undergo the operation by their families, against their own wishes. Castrated and forced to live as a woman in Iran? A living nightmare if there ever was one.

Hey Dana, there's another chapter for a book in here, about equating "no penis" with "being female."
