So very true.  I find NASCAR very boring, I only watched it be cause I worked for Lowe's at the time.  Now if we could get a TS/TG as a driver.  Then maybe if would be worth watching.

I don't much care if its dogs in tutus racing, if the rules have everyone running at +-.01MPH at over 200MPH, then no one can ever pass, and no passing is boring.

We have been bikers, truckers, auto mechanics, racers, Moms and Dads.  And with those backgrounds it is hard sometimes to find common ground other than being TS.

JMHO,
Janet

Oh damn it all to hell Janet, you've gone and pigeon holed me, and I thought I was diverse :D

I guess they didn't assume an "Etc." after the words "Moms and Dads." LOL :D

Folks are soooooo touchy lately.  Sucks to be them I guess LOL :)

How can you make such a general statement, I am so very offended.

I've always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you.

So let's make the most of this beautiful day,
Since we're together, we might as well say,
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?
Won't you be my neighbor?" - Fred Rogers

Oh, I don't even know what that means, & I take pride at being able to speak real good english, not all that sloppity slop they speak in the U.K. I believe if your gonna speak a foreign language, you should at least take the time to learn how to speak it right.

We come from all walks of life and all backgrounds.  We have the shared experience of dealing with our GID, but because we are so diverse we sometimes can't even agree on our shared experience. :P

I have been retail clerk, surveyor, draftsman, statistician, bookkeeper, truck dispatcher, chauffeur, tank gunner, sailor, electronics technician, computer programmer, iron yard worker, mill worker, administrator, technical writer, and a bunch of other things.  That doesn't mean I can't understand someone who was none of those things as long as they are willing to meet me halfway.

We come from all over the world and are all ages and have vastly different life experiences, but we have our GID in common.  How we deal with it will reflect our needs and our situations and our experiences. 

And we're all human.

What is written:

Quote from: Bellaon7 on November 09, 2009, 12:23:59 PMI got thinking(almost always leads to trouble of some sort), after reading a post on another ts website. It started out with "ts people are some of the weirdest people I've come across", which of course sounds offesive at face value, but their actual point was rather to point out that we have hardly anything in common other than being ts/tg & all that entails. I didn't find this idea surprising, I'd just never gave it any thought. However after pondering it for a moment I found it rather refreshing & inspiring. We really can't be pigeon holed. We're as vastly diverse, if not more so than any kind of grouping of people. In such an obvious way that I can easily understand why I've never seen this brought umongst ourselves even in passing.

Most cisgender people have nothing in common other than what being cis- entails.  There are just far fewer of us, so our differences from each-other seem far more apparent.

Normal is what's weird
Weirdness is normal.
So almost everyone's normal, since we're weird.

Personally Im not offended by being called "weird". It's a compliment :D

Re: The sheer vastness of diversity omong the TS/TG community?

I'm not involved in the TS/TG community. My only involvement is in this forum. I don't have a social TG network and don't attend TG events and prefer a secular invironment.
For me personally I am part of the human community which includes everyone not just the TG community.

If, God forbid, anything were to happen to you, as a result of your
"medical history", the "community" would consider you to be part of it.
