It is funny the things that run through your head.  I get this odd feeling sometimes that if people that are so incredibly uncomfortable with TG people could meet some TG people things might change.  But of course this is ridiculous.

People hate because they need to hate.  It has absolutely nothing to do with the people they hate.  What I am, my kindness, my patience, and how I treat my students has no bearing on how they see me or people like me.
