I've been sitting on this thread for almost a month now, but...

You know the little bit of wank around the trans community in the previous post?

Well...

This is from the Trans Issues section of the Venus Envy fanboard. This board is a happy land of constant flamewars.

In this one, we start out with a question about going "stealth."

By the middle of the second page, the argument has started.

We get into early transitioners vs. late transitioners, teens vs. adults, "colonization", offense, the difference being a transwoman and a woman (this is mostly MtF's arguing...), hatred of anyone going another path, white male privelege...

And on...

And on...

And on...

After eight pages, everyone just sort of...wanders off. They all seem mad, but it just...stops.

Ye gods...
