Yes, I'm transgendered. Ask whatever you want too.[W:177]

Re: Yes, I'm transgendered. Ask whatever you want too.

Where do you get that homosexuals are threatened by transsexuals?

Some homosexuals believe that there are no such things as bisexuals, so i thought that this could also be extended to transgendered.

technically they are not bisexual, but, some people don't' give a flying fig about things like that, so ii think that if they are threatened by bisexuals, because they only way to deny their existence is out of fear and ignorance
 
Re: Yes, I'm transgendered. Ask whatever you want too.

That is the reported number. There is plenty of cases of trans being threatened by other trans for speaking out or even thinking of speaking out. Some estimates put the actual regret rate at around 20%.

Got a link for that? Cause I went looking and every site I found that mentioned those numbers said they got them from a dutch study and when I click the link they provide to the study it takes me to this site.

Sex changes are not effective, say researchers | Society | The Guardian

And in that link the only thing I was able to find supporting that idea was this sentence.

"Research from the US and Holland suggests that up to a fifth of patients regret changing sex."

No link at all to anything at all to back up those numbers. I even tried looking for the study myself and the only study I could find was this one.

http://press.endocrine.org/doi/full/10.1210/jcem.83.2.4574

Nothing in there about one fifth of transsexuals regretting SRS. So if you could tell me where you are getting those numbers that would be great.
