Actually that is a very good question. Just saying trans could mean transexual as well as tranvestite. If I were to get into it with someone I would surely want to know. On a tertiary but related note, I was in jail. It was a misdemeanor and I reported on the appointed day. The place was exceedingly full, and we guys that came that day to do our time were all sent to what was called A1. That was the wing for anyone with gender or sex issues, males that is. Some of the guys were picking on them, some were preop actually, and I don't know if it was hormones or what, they started crying. When you are in jail they are responsible for your well being. The guards saw this going on and got us all into the day room and actually asked that this stop, and it did. They came out of their cells and sat with us, something they would not do before. They were polite, "mind if I sit here ?". I was not alone at the table but I said have a seat. And not much more actually, just let the discussion ensue. Now here we got a few "normal" young bucks (or fucks) so it turns into a discussion of sexuality. I don't even remember any names, but I can give a recap of it. So you gonna have that thing cut of, for real ? Yup. Then what, you want to get married or something ? No, I like girls. You can't have kids right ? Nope. And you are doing this to become a lesbian then. I guess so. Not much of a recap, but that's the way it went. They basically integrated with us "normals" and were no longer ostricized or picked on. I think the boyz in the room came away with, at the very least 'They are wierd, but they're OK". Step one at least eh ? Yes what fun it was to be young, but we noticed that they were not crawling into our bunks at night wanting anything. I did not actively pick on them at all, but I did bullshit with some who did. I don't remember the words the guard spoke, but he sat down with us at one of those stainless steel tables with the uncomfortable seats. That was a very long time ago. Now they do not segregate. The rules changed about ten years ago. It is now simplified down to if you have a penis you are male. I guess if you are post op you go to the female section. Now that I have totally failed to answer any questions, and probably brought up a few, I will leave you to go corrupt another thread. I don't mean to hijack but I think this related, and this is real life, none of it made up at all. All us guys who showed up to do our time already knew what A1 was. We had a group "Oh shit". I'm sure some thought they would get raped, and I must admit that the thought did cross my mind. But when we got in there it was totally different than we thought it would be. The whole trip of being involved in this situation is near indescribable, so I will refrain now. Questions about it fine, either here or on the other side. T
