A Transvestite Tale

Why is something that has always gone on suddenly so weird?

Personally, I’m really sick and tired of the whole transgender insanity.  The last I checked, *genuine* trans people are a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percentage of the people in the world.  In other words: rare.

When I got out of the military in the mid 1980’s, one of my first jobs was as a manager of a steak house chain in the Southeastern US.  Every Sunday evening there was a group of trans people who would come in and eat.  The servers all loved them because they were incredible tippers. No one ever had a problem with these people.  They came in (in drag of course), ate, drank, laughed, tipped, and then left.  We didn’t hate these people.  Of course, we did snicker a bit and make a few jokes, but we didn’t wish them ill and we didn’t make fun of them. 

A group of us even went to see trans entertainer  “Eartha Quake.”  I have to admit, I would never go see a show like that now, but back in my 20’s all bets were off!  The show was hilarious, but was *very* risqué and downright vulgar.  It was loaded with sexual content that made me blush back then and would prompt me to walk out now.  Then again, I wouldn’t be upset that Eartha was trans, it would be the content of the show that would turn me off.

I think most Americans have always been “live and let live.”   I don’t know anyone who “has it out” for trans people.  Most of us could care less what *adults* do with their own lives.  Therein lies the problem:  Today’s “trans” movement wants to influence little children with this same risqué content and behavior I mentioned above.  Not all trans people of course.  In fact, I would wager it’s only a very small minority of them that thinks it’s okay for a 5 year old to shove a $10 bill in the g-string of a trans entertainer who has an obvious bulging “package”. 

Let kids be kids.  Let them hold on to their innocence.  Don’t confuse children.  Don’t groom children to make yourself feel better about what you are going through.  Just leave the children out of all of this. 

When I was 10 years old, my cousin and I loved The Carol Burnett show (and her cleaning lady character).  He and I did the unthinkable and dressed up like one of her characters for Halloween that year.  We were completely innocent in this.  We weren’t confused about our gender.  We knew the difference between boys and girls.  We just wanted to do something completely different and off the wall.  It was innocent fun and we had a blast. 

My brother did the unthinkable when he was around 19 years old and dressed as Aunt Jemima for Halloween that year.  It was hilarious (and now would be taboo).  We made the rounds to some local bars (drinking age was still 18 in Montana) where he entered contests and won every single one of them!  People (all of them: black, white, native American) were roaring with laughter.  Not because he looked “confused,” not because he was making fun of “black people” but because he just wanted to have fun. 

In today’s insane “woke” world, my cousin and I would have been taken aside at the age of 10 and would have been “counseled” to begin taking puberty blockers and more than likely (keeping it from our parents of course) would have been encouraged to begin dressing as girls at school and even taking on different names.  This would have destroyed our lives.  Neither one of us wanted to be girls.  We just had fun one year.  Who knows what would happen to my brother in today’s “woke” world.  He probably would be rushed to some kind of counseling to encourage him to do whatever he had to do to transition into an African American female. 

Right now in our family, there is a family member that is struggling with gender identity.  They are in their 40’s and have been struggling with it for years.  None of us knows what to do to “help” them, so we just leave them alone.  We don’t talk about it, though we all want to.  We want to ask, “why?”  What happened to you to cause this?  We don’t wish them anything but the best.  We don’t hate them.  We don’t “infringe” on their rights.  We love them.  They even have children and want their children to grow up healthy and don’t wish gender confusion on them in any way shape of form. 

Some of you know that I spent a 30 year career in mining.  The last mine I worked at we had a trans person who was turning from Danny into Dani.  Hand to God this is true.  This is someone working in a coal mine!  As blue collar as you can get.  Dani is professional, cares about the crew and their safety, they are communicative and easy to get along with.  None of us ever had a problem with Dani, but if they would have demanded I bring my children over to bounce on their lap while they read them a story, I would have felt differently. But I would have felt that way regardless.  I don’t want little children bouncing up and down on ANY stranger’s lap (male, female, gay, straight or trans).  Period. 

I guess what I’m trying to say here is we can’t let the media and this insane government dictate the trans agenda as it currently stands.  Destroying little children before they are even at the age where they know whether they have a problem or not is pure evil.  Little girls usually go through a stage where they play with trucks and climb trees.  Little boys often experiment with playing with dolls and stuff like that.  They get over it in time. For the ones that don’t, there should be help for them. *Sane* help.  

Being trans is someone’s right.  If that’s who you are, go for it!  Just leave the children out of it and do not ever force people to accept you.  When you try to influence children and try to force your views of gender and sexuality on the public, you create the very thing you say you are fighting against!  People who used to say “live and let live,” now say, “oh hell no, get away from me!”   Use some common sense.  It’s one thing to have genuine support for someone who is questioning things.  It’s another completely to take advantage of that questioning to lure them down a path they may never come back from.
