Almost all full-time transgendered start off as part timers. To reject the part-timers is to reject our future peers. <BR/><BR/>Divided we fall.<BR/><BR/>This site is called 'gender variant'.

Especially for those living/working 24/7 as the gender they identify as. <BR/><BR/>I am a Transgender/Transexual woman. Men/women who get a kick out of wearing the opposite genders' clothing are not remotely like myself, in my opinon. Particularly given those who continue to identify as male or female and not the "transitioning gender." They will not face public scrutiny when applying for employment, housing, public office, etc. Their "fetish" is hidden, whereas my identity is as plain as the nose on my face.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712640935255311366.post-39895290532105732032008-11-12T15:29:00.000-05:002008-11-12T15:29:00.000-05:00By my definition he is a drag queen.

What is your definition?<BR/><BR/>Given your rejection of Giuliani, how come you accept Fertig?<BR/><BR/>If would be very foolish of us to decide that persons who dress (up) as the other gender are not transgendered. When did transgendered become an exclusive club where some apparent candidates are locked outside?Zagriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15124379637664963835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712640935255311366.post-50531438375906571342008-11-09T20:23:00.000-05:002008-11-09T20:23:00.000-05:00Much as I appreciate the list, I think your inclus...Much as I appreciate the list, I think your inclusion and description of Rudy Giuliani. He's appeared in drag, he's not a drag queen. Big difference. (Speaking as someone who performs as a drag queen).<BR/><BR/>Also while, it's entirely possible that he's trans of some sort, possibly a crossdresser, but there's just no evidence for that. The fact that he's appeared publicly in drag a couple times could just mean that he enjoys playing "dress up" -- much like a number of straight/gay men enjoy doing drag for Halloween for the comedic/gender bending/being-the-center-of-attention value.Lena Dahlstromhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09168550510368219281noreply@blogger.com
