Funny how having to deal with being trans forces us to think of others in marginalised groups. Id like to think it opens our eyes and makes us better people.
"How can we see to remove the splinter from our brothers eye when we have a log in our own eye."
Hopefully as trans individuals we dont succumb to judging others as much as the general public does.
Now you mention it Moni the black population often has a natural understanding of LGBTQI not because they are but because they know what it is to be on the outer for no legitimate reason.
If you like emotional playgrounds and black people. I personally have some black mates and like laughing till I cry - have you checked out- Nayyirah Waheed ?
She ticks all the boxes- 1.she's black 2.she's a shiela 3. she's a lesbian 4. she's from Africa 5. she's a dynamite poet.
When I was going through my first 12 months of estrogen HRT in 2016 I developed a craving for poetry.
Nayyirah Waheed's book of poetry " SALT " fed my taste for agony and extacy.
Her words are boiled down to the bare essence and really pack a wallop. It will bring tears. Some of the poetry feels like a silk sledgehammer.
You will enjoy being sliced by her rapier pen.
P.S. I want to hear the odd "went down like fart in church joke" from you too - be nice to me though I might get precious.
