TransGriot : What Gay Marriage WON'T Do

Wed, 17 Apr 2013 12:16:33 +0000

And yet you got stiffed on your toothless trans non-discrimination law that lacks protection for the use public accommodations in your state. When is gay marriage gonna fix that?

TransGriot : Happy Milestone Birthday, Moni!

Happy birthday, Monica, and many wishes for a wonderful year to come!

TransGriot : WTF? Whitney Ain't Even In Her Grave Yet...

Thu, 16 Feb 2012 02:39:19 +0000

Gay people claiming someone who's dead and unable to speak for herself as a member of their community? I'm about as shocked (shocked! I say) over this as I am over SB212 getting sidelined for gay marriage in Maryland.

TransGriot : I'm Not Shocked About The Maryland Trans Rights Bill Being Sidelined For Gay Marriage

Wed, 15 Feb 2012 14:33:25 +0000

Count me down as totally not shocked, too. Cue the cis GLs whining about how "gay marriage is good for trans people, too!" in 3...2...1!

TransGriot : Willard Doesn't Care About Very Poor People

Wed, 1 Feb 2012 20:59:42 +0000

Considering how his party is doing their level best to disenfranchise the very (and not-so-very) poor, it does make a twisted kind of sense that he wouldn't care about them. And don't get me started about how there's supposedly a safety net when his party is doing their level best to dismantle that, too.

Those pickles must only be delivered in a brown paper bag, correct?

WordPress blog at cristanwilliams.com : Separatist Morality

Thu, 11 Aug 2011 19:37:35 +0000

It would be nice if she and other TS separatists would realize that, but I don't think that their pride would allow them to for anything less than Ms. Brennan, Ms. Hungerford, and the rest of the trans-hating feminists saying to their faces that she considers them just as bad as the "bad trannies" they don't want to be associated with. I don't think that's going to happen, though...oppressing people is so much easier when you have a bunch of kapos to do your work for you.

TransGriot : The Advocate Erased Me From My Own Fracking Blog

Mon, 25 Jul 2011 15:04:56 +0000

Gee, it "only" took them a whole day to correct their mistake. Had they mistaken one appletini-drinking cis gay white dude for another, how long would it have taken them to correct that? Half an hour, tops? What a crock...I wouldn't even use the Advocate to wipe my ass with. And don't get me started on the comments, either...a bunch of myopic jerks saying we trans people (and bi people, for that matter) should have a separate movement from them while at the same time wondering why we're so angry when they persist in saying "LGBT" but clearly only mean "gay".

TransGriot : How Do You Identify As Trans On Your Family Tree?

Wed, 20 Jul 2011 14:06:00 +0000

That, and the fact that it's not like anyone that I might distribute the family tree to doesn't already know that I'm trans, and that my birth name was such and such.

TransGriot : How Do You Identify As Trans On Your Family Tree?

Wed, 20 Jul 2011 03:08:43 +0000

I'm working on putting together a family tree, and I did the same as you - I just added a note to my record about my birth name. I'm not thrilled about it, but it is a historical record like you said, and I feel like I should add the note if for no other reason than to link it with my grandmother's notes that I'm using.

TransGriot : Nice Try, GRMD

Wed, 1 Jun 2011 23:43:15 +0000

Well, they wouldn't want to have any trans POC calling any shots around there, would they? That would mean they'd have to go against the interests of EQMD and the rest of the marriage-first crowd at least once in a while, and we already know how unacceptable that is... And...Mark McLaurin is on their board now? The same Mark McLaurin that compared trans women to circus freaks in the wake of HB235's failure to pass? I mean, yes, he did apologize for his remarks, but one really wonders if GRMD is deliberately trying to destroy what little credibility they have before it even gets off the ground.

TransGriot : Satoshi Kanazawa, Black Women Ain't Ugly

Wed, 18 May 2011 11:47:30 +0000

I'm pretty sure that being a misogynist racist twit is a job requirement for becoming an evolutionary psychologist. Not to mention the ability to blithely ignore social factors like centuries of prejudice in explaining social phenomena like beauty standards...

TransGriot : You ARE A Trans Oppressor If

Tue, 15 Mar 2011 14:42:50 +0000

Just because he's a "scientist" (I'm using the term loosely in his case) doesn't mean he's some ivory tower idealist who cares only about the truth. Blanchard strikes me as more than just a bit attached to his pet theory and unwilling to even consider all the evidence against it (like, you know, the way trans women actually live their lives) - never a trait that makes a good scientist. Besides, why should his motives make any difference? Intent isn't magic, you know. The fact is that his theory makes it much more difficult for trans women to live their lives with dignity. What other reason do you need to call him oppressive?

TransGriot : Pam's Ponderings-Why Do Some Gay Men Hate Transsexuals?

Tue, 4 Jan 2011 16:26:54 +0000

I think you're right. They're either queens who are jealous of you for looking better than them, or they see you as competition for men. I guess that a third reason (for the Ron Gold types) might be that they only care about your penis rather than about you as a person, and they get all concerned about how they'll never have a chance at it once you transition.

TransGriot : TransGriot Nuke A Troll 7-Southern Fried Fool

Wed, 29 Dec 2010 15:06:07 +0000

I like how this troll conveniently fails to mention that three of the four American Indian tribes he mentioned (the Cherokee, Choctaw, and Chickasaw) were counted among the Five Slave-Holding Tribes. I mean, it's great that the Confederacy gave these particular tribes some degree of autonomy over their own affairs, but when you're trying to argue that the Civil War wasn't about slavery, you could at least not point to groups that owned slaves themselves to back up your argument...

Ah, the rewards of a "homescholed" education...

TransGriot : See? Told Y'all The Tea Klux Klan ls Racist

Sat, 17 Jul 2010 13:18:44 +0000

WTF...he just suggested that slavery wasn't "real work"? The worst part is that that's (arguably) not even the most racist part of that post! Dear Mr. Williams: next time you feel like shooting yourself in the foot, consider aiming the gun at your head instead.

TransGriot : Hate The Smell Of Vanilla Scented Privilege

Mon, 21 Jun 2010 14:19:58 +0000

I absolutely hate the tone argument. As if nobody has a right to be angry about the injustices they face, and as if singing Kumbaya with whoever's doing the oppressing would help anyway.

She's gotta be white with the amount of pearl-clutching going on in that comment...

TransGriot : Black Peeps Proud Of Who We Are And Who Call Y'all Out On Your Vanilla Flavored Bullcrap Ain't 'Raci

Mon, 7 Jun 2010 20:16:41 +0000

It's pretty sad how the word "racism" is used by the real racists to defend their white privilege these days, isn't it? What's even sadder is that so much of the left, who really ought to know better, is actually letting the racists get away with using that way.
