There's your problem right there

I feel the need to reflect on what happened on Friday evening...and was still happening when I awoke this morning. Needing some emotional immediacy, let me first add what I posted in WYFP on Saturday evening:
What is this place?
A diary about discrimination against a black transdude (warning 580+ comments) ended up being a forum for bigoted views about transpeople. We're perverts and "rapists by deceit"...and apparently it's okay for people on DK to say such things. If we complain, we're the bigots.
I seem to have gotten lost somewhere.
I should be going now. I have to get "born a man" tattooed on my forehead.
