I was surfing through some old threads and came across this one. Go into the link to the first article and read the comments on the Media Research Center's Newsbusters site which give some idea of the prejudice and abuse which awaits anyone who varies from society's perceived norm. Most of the comments are from blokes. It says something about the male attitude towards anyone they see as weaker than them, because this is little short of bullying. These guys are sitting at their keyboards and virtually, if not physically, mugging this woman. They obviously think that people who change sex do it for some kind of perverted fun. Now would they be so venemous if Kate had been born female? Very unlikely I would say, in fact they would probably be falling all over her. That's sad enough.
But the subject of the article, Kate Craig-Wood has even suffered abuse and criticism from other people in the transgendered community, supposedly because she is willing to put herself in the public eye, showing the world that it is possible to change sex and still be a successful businesswoman. Surely we should all be full of praise, but sadly she has met with alot of seemingly jealous remarks from the people she is trying to help. Can you believe that? That's even sadder.
