I really get this alot: When I read posts of transsexual women (and men) who are straight , sexuality wise, I get this feeling that they think that TG's , Androgynes and certain non-straight TS's arent really truely genderdysphoric and that they feel somewhat superior
But this is just my impression :)

Veetje,
This is really just human nature. We all have customs that we do that we think are the best and that if everyone did the same as us they would be successful. That isn't the case though, we are all different and how one reacts will be different than someone else. When reading some of these threads, you just have to take them at what they are. Use what you need and discard the rest. Don't try to one up someone as there are those that will take it to the extreme. I'm not perfect and sometimes get lead down that path.

You'll find this attitude in all walks of life. Everyone has an opinion and when it comes to transitioning (from what I've seen) it's more often than not that you're doing the wrong thing.
You need to remember that no one knows you like you. It's ok to listen to other's input, but don't take what they say to heart because they don't know what's best for you.
The main point is: Don't take anything posted on a forum personally.

That's pretty good advice from Osiris.
