Just recently a post was posted on my Facebook feed from a transgender woman in Florida.

This person had requested my friendship a while ago and because i already had quite a number of transgender girls on my friends list and we had over a hundred mutual friends i accepted the request, I never had any contact with this person, she never commented on my posts or liked any of my comments.

And then she put up a post that I'd never experienced so much hatred towards crossdressers before, this post was not aimed at me personally but crossdressers in general, it was vicious and described Cd's as sick and perverted who have no place in the transgender community and should not be included under the trans umbrella! I won't put up the actual post as it was full of choice expletives that I don't think are appropriate in this forum but it left me feeling horrible as a crossdresser and I was seething with anger at this person who quite clearly had no idea of what it means to be a crossdresser.

My first reaction was to lay into her and let her have it, but then other transgender and crossdressing girls started to reply to her post and they let her have it instead, it was apparent that no matter what they said to her she was not interested in other people's views and so I decided not to bother, instead I posted her original comment on my timeline to show others the hatred of this so called transgender person, the respone i got was very heartening and showed me that just about all of the transgender community welcome and accept crossdressers as part of the community, they told me that this sort of thing is not welcome in the community, but through all this i found it to be a good lesson in how the transgender community welcomes us crossdressers and just like all communities you'll get the minority that think they are better than others but in general we are part of the trans community, just to add i didn't post this person's name and once I'd read how they hammered her with their comments i just blocked and unfriended her.
