I'm not at all sure where to go with this... Probably nowhere... Definitely nowhere... Who wants to talk about comics again? Me! I do! Unfortunately I don't know where to go with that either... What a pain in the ass morning this is... at noon. - __-

Who you telling? lol Got up at 6am to take dogs to groomer, there's a non stop thunderstorm raging, and now have to go pick them back up again. *sigh*

On a side note, a friend went to see Green Lantern, said she enjoyed it a lot. She said it was great seeing Hal on the big screen, even though it wasn't a great movie, as a fan, she was happy with the film. Think I'm still going to wait for the digital version myself lol May go see The Bad Teacher, love me some Cameron Diaz

The weather is sunny outside. The storm however rages inside this tiny studio apartment that I thought was a smart idea to share. At least I don't have to step into the sun today...

If I see that movie it'll likely be by accident. Pretty soon I'm just gonna start sticking to foreign films and independent stuff. Since most movies in this country are usually just foreign rips any damn way... I saw the original Bangkok Dangerous. I was not happy to see Nicolas Cage on a poster for it. Since I feel like I could beat the hell out of him any given day of the week. I do like him as an actor. Just not as an action actor. No comment on Cameron Diaz. >.>

Love foreign and independent films, I see reading subtitles as a plus in cinema, I'm more, engaged perhaps. lol Foreign cinema tends to focus more on the art of cinematography, and exposition, creating complex dramas that bring you into the lives of the characters. Saw that Bangkok Dangerous remake, poor Nicolas Cage, they are doing post production already on the Ghost Rider sequel. I've been a fan of his since Raising Arizona, Peggy Sue Got Married, and Fast Time At Ridgemont High, but he has had a fair few movies that were duds. Guess it pays to be part of the Coppola family

I loved The Weatherman, Con Air was a movie I could watch again despite his role... that accent was ridiculous... And there are other movies I've seen him in that I can't quite remember that I'm sure I didn't hate. But he has the face of someone who look very uneasy in a black neighborhood so the action movies just don't sell me. I'm pretty sure Rambo would walk in and out of the ghetto unscathed. - __-

I remember back when I was getting into foreign stuff I used to watch a series called Hideyoshi based on the emperor. It was subtitled and my cousin would always complain about me watching it. Never understood why people complain about reading while watching things. I don't even like watching TV without close captioning most of the time.

I describe myself that way because that is what I like. I'm no more attracted to 'men' than a GG (Genetic Girl) Lesbian or a straight man like yourself. One's gender does not necessarily reflect their sexual orientation, otherwise we would not have gay/lesbian/trans in the first place. It took a long time for Harry Benjamin's Standards of Care to recognize that, but thankfully the suits came to their logical senses.

I'm very nearly a feminist, I find few redeeming qualities in men, and have no expectations of any man providing a healthy, faithful relationship with a trans-girl. There is a very small percentage of trans girls that have healthy, happy, long lasting (5+ years) relationships with men. One is usually cheating on the other and they just pretend like nothing happens until it's thrown in their face. Not to say there aren't some genuine good guys out there, but I'm not attracted to them AT ALL, and have precious little interest in wasting my time sifting through the crap to find a decent one.

I can respect that. Just a few more questions though. As one who formerly identified as a man, and who was born a man, when you speak so lowly of the character of men do you include yourself and other ts in that classification? Or are transwomen given the benefit of the doubt in your book?

I don't know any trans women personally but I have read and interacted with a few online. Some will say things like "don't try to run game because I still have a dick too", which to me indicates that in some way they still classify or identify as men in that regard. Hell even the title transwoman suggest that they choose to identify as one gender over another (and not simply as transgendered).

Its all very interesting to me.

No, I do not include ts in the classification of men. Ts, are inherently more complex, especially factoring in proper HRT, or lack thereof.

That is a very general statement that can mean different things, and context is everything, so I don't get your assumption that they "..still classify or identify as men..." from it.

General question for any of the ladies. Why isn't this forum more popular with black transsexuals? What makes forums like black gay chat, more appealling than this? is that interactions with dudes on this site viewed as potential clients while interactions with dudes on bgc are viewed as potential boo's or fuck buddies?

Just to clarify Remy... you don't believe that one's sex can inherently make them better than another do you?

Very valid point... B/c I consider myself a damn good mate period, regardless of whatever undeserved stigmas my sex may have been besmirched with...
