75% of Americans think being Transgender is a choice.
Compared to 47% thinking that being gay is a choice. (http://www.queerty.com/47-of-america-thinks-being-gay-is-a-choice-and-yet-43-supports-gay-marriage-20091218/)
Dear LGB people, we’ve fought for and supported your rights, mind returning the fucking favor?
Emphasis added. I got your back, socialistexan.

If you were interested, the "rod" post-op MtF's use is called a dilator, shaped similar to a non-phallic vibrator.
interesting. i feel like i need to learn more about the mtf side of trans*
- Asked by Anonymous
yes they can both MTF and FTM's can have regular intercourse. just after a mtf has bottom surgery they have to stick this rod or something like that up theoir vaginas because there have been cases where after the surgery the vagina hole closed up. so after the healing is over with they can have sexual intercourse.
thanks for the help

I've always wondered this, if a ftm/mtf has bottom surgery, can they have regular sexual intercourse? O_o
I am not 100% positive on mtf side most of the reading up I have done is for ftms but I want to say yes. For ftm just taking T can cause the clit to grow significantly to allow “normal” sexual intercourse.

Are You Sure...?
The linked article is by Brent Walsh, who does an excellent job explaining why the “Are you sure…?” questions aren’t any help at all. The article provides some very good alternatives to such questions:
So how can you respond when someone tells you they want to transition? First, try not to jump to a fear-based reaction. If you are uncertain what to say, try, “Tell me more about how you’re feeling.” This allows the transgender person to open up without feeling defensive. When you feel genuinely concerned about the suddenness of the decision, you could say: “I’m glad you told me about this. How long have you been feeling this way?” This will give the person a chance to share their internal experience and process with you.
If transgender issues are foreign to you, it’s okay to admit that. You don’t have to know all the answers. You can simply acknowledge, “I honestly don’t know what you’re going through and I’ve never dealt with anything like this before. But your journey is important to me. Let’s keep talking so you can help me understand.”Ultimately, remember to focus on affirming this person you care about and frame your questions with care so they will feel respected, valued, and loved.
Bolding is mine. Read more at the article! Thanks to my many cis friends who have followed similar guidelines. It helps me enormously to know that my friends are supportive and interested in what my transition means to our relationship.
