The Transgender Borg vs Radical Feminists

As you, gentle readers may have noticed about this blog, while it is titled "Women Born Transsexual", transsexual and transgender specific issues are rarely the blog's main focus.

This is because I am post-transsexual, a woman with a medical history of transsexualism that is so ancient as to make so much the the identity politics of both the Transgender Borg and Transgender Inc seem like news from a distant alien place and time.

Instead many if not most material I present has to do with economic issues, the environment, women's rights.

If transgender is the Borg, then the radfems are the Maquis.

I am such a Star Trek geek.  I'm trying to finish watching every episode of Deep Space Nine.

Still trying to get my head around what this whole show is all about.  Sounds like people on a competitive power trip.

I write logical, thought out, expressive replies to these blogs sometimes... the never make it past the "moderation"...

You see more clearly than most.

That's the problem. At radical sites there is no moderation.

I don't see anything overly radical being expressed over there in the particular entry that formed the basis for the link in this thread...but then again, I am one of those evil separatists who has a generally normal life and who has had the medical condition corrected.

I quit trying in most cases.

Only those posts that make her look good and those post where the person who is disagreeing with her and they look like an ass get published.
A well thought out rebutal she can't adress never makes it public.

Personaly I think blogs that moderate coments have nothing real to offer. If your opinions can not stand up to scrutiny your ideas are bovine excrement.

If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

She lost her trans partner as she stated 6 yrs ago and now she is dating a GG and feels accepted and can only fight everyone who doesn't follow her because she has to try to keep showing she is a true feminist. Its a shame..

I remember when she started the wbt group on yahoo yrs ago. She wanted me to join and i did but i too was new and ignorant at the time.. so are her new supporters who will grow and eve'volve over time, unless of course they find a lesbian separatist partner

don't waste your time responding she is lonely and hurting really..

its the i am more woman than you thang
I'm an Amazon womyn + very butch + respecting MWMF since 1999 unless invited. + I AM A HIPPIE

Now why can't the rest of the HBS and WBT crowd be nice and reasonable like Val?
