I agree all the way. The LGBT community doesn't get that people in general jus don't understand. Doesn't excuse their behavior but in the same breath I really feel if ur different in a kind of way that strangers are going to bother u about it, then u should have something quick lined up to say. Stick and move. I am extremely heavy chested and have been that way since the age of 12. I had to learn how to stick and move. No woman in my family could explain to me where these things came from, I went through lonely nights but when it came to strangers... Just like him u put it in ya mind like if ur asking these stupid questions then ur stupid. But it doesn't mean I have to show u what I'm thinking. The LGBQT community gotta learn the world is still learning.

The honesty and candor with which he shares his story is invaluable. I knew almost nothing about intersex individuals and now I know I need to read more and learn about their experiences.

[@nicholasbalser6901]

@Sohie Your comment is 100% misleading. You literally added a word never said. He said "I get more respect as a Man than I did as a girl. This can be 100% taken from his experience just by listening to his story. He lived the first part of his life as a female in which NO ONE saw him as a female and questioned it all the time. An experience no normal looking woman would go through unless she had a genealogical issue or was 7 levels of ugly.

That was a very telling comment. A lot of women's feelings about being less respected by men are definitely validated by hearing that one. It just goes to show they're not making it up or imagining things.

[@mrshaun8812]

He said that he got more respect as a man than as a woman because girls/women were the main one bullying him in school by saying that he looks like a man rather than a woman in the showers. Girls/women can be hyper mean at times with no compassion.

[@GameChanger597]

@@mrshaun8812 Yeah that's not at all what he said. He said the PARENTS were the ones telling him he couldn't possibly be a girl. He even supported women in general by saying they give something/an intimacy, that men don't. This isn't about attacking men. It's about validating women in the presence of men. Women already know this fact. It's the men who are the ones who deny it, or at the very least don't understand it. This may give some understanding. Nothing wrong with men at all. This just helps us all to understand each other a little better.
