Stephen Ira, Have Some Respect!

Just because you went to the Buckley School and have a superior education than most of us doesn't give you the right to talk a bunch of gibberish that only makes sense to you and your fellow school mates (and maybe not even them). How dare you at 19 years old talk down to Chaz Bono,who, at 42, a whole generation older than you, has endured ridicule, insults, mockery !! You don't know the half of what Chaz has gone through so that kids like you can be understood!

Here is that gobbly-gook you said to Chaz:




"Chaz is a misogynist...This man doesn't represent our community. He especially does not represent those of us who are non-binary, non-op, women, or feminist men. Chaz needs to do some hard thinking about what it means to appoint oneself representative of a whole group without considering the desires of all the group's members."

All Chaz said was that he felt his vagina was a birth defect that he wanted corrected. Stephen got his panties in a bunch and felt that Chaz was misrepresenting this tiny sliver of a transgender subgroup - "the non-binary" [neither female or male, neither 1 or 2] that evidently wanted to be male but with vaginas. I'm not certain what he meant, I was just disturbed by the slight disrespect for a civil rights pioneer.
