I Trust Women and That Is Why I am Pro-Choice
Women Born Transsexual

As a woman born transsexual I too have experience people guilt tripping me for taking the path I have take.  Some feminists seem wedded to the idea that my body and life are not my own, that I owe my being to an ideology that would have required me to not change my sex but rather to fight sex or gender oppression by "transgressing gender".  In essence this is not trusting me to determine what I wish to do with my life and demanding the same sort of enslavement to an ideology as the denial of any other form of control over one's reproductivity.
