:rolleyes: Not all male to female transsexuals like men, either before or after transitioning. The situation is not as fun as you seem to think, and certainly not as funny, either. In the extremely unlikely event that you ARE a mtf transsexual who is exclusively attracted to women, I’m sorry, and good luck. Otherwise… :rolleyes: ---

\*Don’t know much about history. Don’t know much biology. Don’t know much about a science book. Don’t know much about the French I took. But I do know I’m a lesbian. And if only I weren’t a man, What a wonderful world it would be.\* ---

No, you have to watch out for the angry Moderators with their Troll-Beating Mallets (not accusing you directly of trolling; that’s offensive to our rules here, but it sure _sounds like_ you were more interested in stirring up trouble than in discussion). And also for a lot of us who are neither transgendered nor lesbian but who have respect for our friends and fellow members who are, and don’t like to see them put down by inane jokes. ---

Now, now, let’s not be too hard on her. She needs sympathy at a time like this. **dontknowmuch** , honey, I know a perfectly wonderful surgeon who’d be more than happy to castrate you for a little over $1500 plus the cost of the hospital stay. Gotta warn you though, when those female hormones start interacting with your female brain, there’s a 70 to 90% chance you’re going to switch over and start finding the fellas attractive. I didn’t, but I’m married to a goddess whose beauty Aphrodite would envy. And that’s if you keep your sex drive. You may lose that and/or possibly your ability to achieve any kind of orgasm. Oh, and be prepared to lose your job, your friends, and your family, cuz there’s a good chance many of them will desert you and never want to talk to you again. But hey, if you’ve got the 50 to 70 grand it’s going to cost you sitting in the bank and a good secure job, by all means, we’ll be glad to have you in the club. E-mail me and I can help you set up that appointment to get castrated as early as next week. ---

> [@dontknowmuch](#): > > O MAN an angry dyke ha lol im really sorry if i offended anyone i didnt mean anything offensive maybe i should think before i type about other peoples sexual problems Don’t really know why I’m bothering to point this out, but typically, lesbians don’t seem to _have_ sexual problems (at least not conspicuously more so than any other demographic) - it’s _everybody else_ (well, lots of them, anyway) that has the problem _with lesbians_. ---

Your name was well chosen, **dontknowmuch** , although I find your lack of apostrophes…disturbing. Judging by the two threads I’ve seen from you already in this forum, I recommend you do some growing up or steel yourself for a Pitting. ---
