958 words in less than half an hour (based on the fact I started about two minutes after Good Eats started and ended about three minutes before it did). Not bad.

Got this via [livejournal.com profile] ladyaviva who I'm sure will write a much better response than I either on her blog or over at Bi-Furious.

Warning: Don't read if you're easily triggered by a certain slur that are directed at transwomen. Yeah, that one.

Dear Dan,
I am not a straight man or a straight woman. I'm not a lesbian woman or a gay man. Oh, woops. Now you can't see me, because in your world those are the only categories of people.

Well, in the real world, there are more than two sexualities and way more than two genders. Shocking, I know. I'm pansexual, genderqueer, and I think transwomen are beautiful. I know lesbians who think so too, as well as bisexual men and women. I know it's hard to believe that only straight men could be attracted to (that 'clever' term the porn industry came up with). But you see, transwomen aren't ('clever' term). They're women. Some of us weren't as blessed as you were to be born in the right body.

Stop giving 'advice' when you don't know anything about the topic, or all you know is hate and/or ridicule.
