>and those stereotypes exist for a reason.
Stereotypes are stereotypes, doesn't make them true. doesn't make them accurate. And it most certainly doesn't make them a "good thing"

In my 37 years I've studied the "female culture" probably more closely than you have. The fact that you claim women over analyze words based on a small statistcal sample, your wife?, does not make that statement applicable to a women. Which is what you did. Then you claimed that since you perceived I lacked that quality I wasn't a woman.
What makes you think I've "hacked of my crotch"? I haven't.
>Madison is a woman. It's in her nature.
>You can tell by the way she communicates.
How can you say this without more data, especially data involving real life conversation?
You have to remember, Madison is younger than I am, about 10 years I think. She started her transition, I haven't done that. She's taken hormones, I haven't. I've spent a longer time, having to live the male role.
When I was young, I got picked on for being a "sissy and crybaby", so I had to repress that part of me. Even today, I find myself holding back in conversations and emotional responses, and social interactions because of that. My instinct says to do/say one thing, but my head stops that because I'm afraid of other people. For example If I start "gushing" in a conversation, I pull it back, and then I get ashamed for pulling it back.
I've spent decades repressing every little thing that might get perceived as feminine and now you throw it in my face. Thank you oh so very much.
Your words hurt me more than those of that AC's No you didn't mean to do that. Here I am sitting at my computer and crying.over a Slashdot post.
My Question about what makes a woman a woman was rhetorical, it was designed to get you to think.That's what I was trying to do.

You don't know this, but words similar to that paragraph are often used by T-folk to put other T-folk down. Basically trying to say that they are more "feminine" than others. It hurts.
I do have a question, why do you think I'm attracted to men? I'm not. I know it's a stereotype, "They do it so they can have sex with men and not feel guilt" But it isn't true.

You don't know this either but self doubt is why so many T-folk delay their transitions. All those years of repression helps one doubt ones one thoughts and feelings. Let me tell you that isn't fun at all.
I know you didn't mean ill. Thanks for your well wishes.
could you remember this one thing. If you ever have a child that is transgendered or different, could you give them all the love you can and then some? They really need it.
Take care.
She may not look 100% feminine--look at her face (and prolly her crotch too, since she's pre-op, right?), but as you say, she is a woman in her head and her heart.
