@ReginaTrans_ you know what? I'm not offended when someone tells me I look lovely, soft and feminine. Don't care, really, because my gender doesn't define my character.

@ReginaTrans_ hm, I'm a tomboy and I don't think it's an insult. I've been called 'sir' for years and years, even during the last month of my second pregnancy. I'm not defective and you're not defective; that's a word you've got in your head, and you're using it to self-victimise.

Female impersonation is a wholly respectable art form harking back to the days when only men were permitted to act on stage (and several cultures thought this at various times in history). I have every regard for the professional gentlemen - and sometimes ladies - who perform as 'drag' characters. In the UK, we're quite happy for children to laugh at and with the pantomime dame. Something about a man dressed up silly and acting silly tickles children, especially when the youngest ones get the whole joke about it being a man inside those big knickers or glamorous frocks. But this? No.

@ReginaTrans_ ah, you again. Most of the world's societies were and are male dominated. It took a world war for the West to start to consider female emancipation - which was actually a thing championed by the Victorian and Edwardian underground pornography industry, along with Socialism and, believe it or not, temperance (I am a literature graduate, thank you). Gay men did not 'save' women and they certainly are not saving the women still being oppressed in Eastern cultures. I do wonder if you're obliquely referring to the anthropological proposition that having gay males in a prehistoric tribe meant that the men could go hunting while leaving the ladies safe in more ways than from attacks by lions and tigers and bears?
