A fascinating look by a straight heterosexual male into issues facing transgenders

[Guest LizMarie]

This was a good article and illuminating. Clearly crossing certain lines brings out the worst in some people.

Awesome piece. Thanks for sharing

Interesting line:

We live in a world where the material, the fabric, the pieces that adorn you are somehow allowed to say more about who you are than the convictions in your heart and the sincerity in your deeds.

Interesting conclusion drawn by him. I've never thought clothing defined me.

[Guest LizMarie]

But look at the reactions he got just by changing clothing. He knew it did not define him but the reactions he got were extreme. So apparently for some people, clothing does define someone.

Interesting read, good find. It does amaze me how something such as a skirt can have that much of an impact on how people see others. So shallow minded.

I wonder how differently he would have been treated if he'd put on some makeup, shaved, and got his hair into a more female fashion (kinda hard since its not very long) or wore a wig.

It's an interesting story, I'd love to see him go more indepth with it to really try to look like a woman as a straight man.

No surprise, nil, zilch, as to his findings.

This is how shallow our society is and has been for at least decades.

According to the general populace clothing does define each and every one of us.
