Dadgum, Melissa, you always crank my mind into thinking so deeply that I can barely do anything else!

Basically, for me, labels suck.  There are just too many variations on a theme.  A year ago, I would have completely disagreed with you--but that was a year ago.

Since then, I've encountered so many variations of the CD, TV, TS and whatever.  It's like a whole new planet of identities.  Labels give me a headache.

For simplicity's sake, to someone new, I will describe myself as transgendered or partially transgendered.  However, it's not how I really feel about myself.  I'm me.  That's it.  I'm just me period.  The only label I know of for that is "Cat."  There's a tune in my heart and soul that I listen to.  It's a tune I love.  So, when I walk down a street, I don't think about labels, and I'm not pretending to be someone I'm not.  Authenticity is extremely important to me; it's everything.

It's sad that there are so many despicable people of all variations.  Too many pretending and not being themselves.  The drama queens, the drama kings....oy.  I wish we could just drop the labels.

My mind just swims in confusion over all of the identities.....I will think some more about all this....neat!

"I am not welcome amongst the CD’s because of my scathing condemnation, which they so duly earn."

OUCH!

And who's Barak?

It's easy to piss a few people off.....what's much harder is for individuals to understand what they are in this human soup that we swim in.

I think you have locked in clearly on your own sexuality and thus, your identity.  It must be very difficult for all individuals who are somewhere in this mental and physical transition to find out who they are at any point in time.

Your pictures truly show how you have evolved, and when you couple your external evolution with internal, hormonal, mental evolution, you should feel a sense of major accomplishment in how far you've come and where you have arrived.

But ya gotta tell me.....is Barak (Barack?) a top or a bottom????????????

I am not sure I understand all of the initials and/or acronyms, but what I did get I agree with wholeheartedly. I am not attracted to CD's, TV's, or guys, but I am attracted to a passable preop shemale or TS. However, I don't know what a LGB is or the term LGM"T" bus means. I was in NJ recently, and I am very sorry I passed on your ad. I obviously made a serious mistake. When I come back from Brazil, I will have to look you up.
