Today in class we talked with a man on skype. We learned a
lot about him we learned that he used to be a woman and he felt the need to
change into a man and that’s respectable can’t knock him for what his decisions
are. I also learned that it took him awhile to get a bearded and that really fascinated
me because I never thought that girls could get beards. Another thing I learned
is that he has small feet. He said that he’s had a lot of surgeries done and he
feels like he’s getting sore. He says that he wants to be more complete. He says
he has nightmares about bathrooms because a couple of times he’s gotten kicked
out because of amigos reasons and he worries about the stalls making sure there closed making sure there is
toilet paper these are just something’s he’s worried about in public bathrooms.
The kinds of toys he played with were Lego, ruing around, videogames,
sports, Barbie’s he played every sport that he could play.
He wishes that people knew how his personality so he could
show people how cool he is. Because while his appearance changed his personality
will never change. He says he wasn’t offended when he got the surgery he was
offended when people started calling him names because they don’t want to take
the time to get to know the person.
He says at this point he just wants to get all the surgeries
done and not feel discussed when he looks in the mirror or incomplete he just
wants it all done.
While he was talking to us he was telling us not to judge people
by the way they look he pretty much said or don’t say anything without knowing
who you’re saying it to because you never know who’s feelings your hurting.
