You don’t respect me for who I am today

You the only person who has to agree with yourself

You are you, and I am me, and that’s the way it was meant to be.

I respect your right to life and I will always be respectful to you, however, if you think putting on a dress and asking to be called Muriel makes you a woman. My opinion of that is not important because I was not born to live up to your expectations, and you were not born to live up to mine.

You may have notice I haven’t given the above paragraph a male or female origin, that’s because I have my own idea of what dictates male and female behaviour. In my life I have met men who behaved like both and women who behaved the same way.

This post originated from the outcry of the trans community who claimed one person was anti trans or I suppose they’re going to be called trans-ist or trans-ism. I know the person was famous but it she was only one person with one opinion, and from what I read she claimed they misinterpreted her words.

Who knows and who cares; not me, if they want to live their life in a certain way, let them be proud of who they are and stop worrying so much about whether people identify them as this gender or that gender. They should worry about whether they are seen as good people.

I’ll leave you with one final note.

A lot of problems seem to stem from people’s outlook on life. They appear to be forever trying to find out.

How am I being victimised?
