The Whole Sunday Morning Television Thing...
Sometimes you wake up in a good mood...pop on the TV....and you just get frustrated and angry.
Today's been one of those days, sweetie....
It's all anti-gay this, anti-transgender that...
Just to give you some context, sweeties....I'm in the UK....and live in the Midlands.
So...there's the whole thing about the Scottish Parliament understanding the whole identity issues that we face and wishing to make it a legal thing that people can legally begin to change their sex (thus their identity) at age 16.
Lovely.....makes sense...
...and then the whole veto'ing, by the British Government of this whole act, without any real understanding...and the whole discussing of these issues.
GRRRRRRRRHHHHHHH!
..then onto the local political programme...they take it further...then add on top of that that women can feel uncomfortable about all that because of potential abuse by paedophiles and male sexual predators...
Got me so angry!
..as Nicola Sturgeon, the First Minister Of Scotland, stated....you can join the army at 16....you can get married at 16....so why can't a person be mature enough to understand and realise what their gender identity could - and indeed, should - be.
Then....onto the issue of same-sex couples, getting married; parts of the Christian Church think this is a good thing, whilst the Archbishop feels that he would do this as not to 'upset' parts of the Christian Church community/parishioners.
Just....not putting me in a good, happy frame of mind.
To sum up; the vast majority of the transgender community are just nice people. We're not nut jobs, not paedophiles....not out to change the world...we just want to be accepted....and get on with life.
Y'know....just like everyone else...
