AnalogyAddict,

I don’t know about transitioning, other than I probably would have thought I was trans if I’d been born later. I’m glad I wasn’t told I’d have to go through surgery and hormone replacements to be what I truly am. I was able to define my gender for myself.

But I don’t think anyone can judge another person’s choices like that. I just look forward to the day when people are allowed to freely make choices about how they live their own lives. I don’t think either political side is terribly flexible. (Though certainly, the right is far more rigid.)

I’ve seen too many people ostracized for changing their minds about being trans or changing their sexuality by people they thought were open-minded friends. Or people hated on for changing their faith by those who pretend to follow a loving God. It’s painful all around. We shouldn’t have to agree with someone on every point to celebrate and adore them.
