shouldt hate Voodoo or Hoodoo or even diasporic African traditional Religions? I mean We were enslaved and Christianity was forced upon us. We had no choice but to choose jesus at fear of being lynched, Whipped and/or tortued. We had to hide our practices and thats how we have modern day Santeria and/or Voodoo. But all inall this is our culture and our heritage. This worked for our people and continues to work for our people. There was no devil involved. This is not devil worship as Christians will have you believe. YOu are worshiping Yahway and Jesus, these are jeweish/Hebrew names not some universal name. These were the names the hebrews gave their God. While I do respect the jewish God/Gods I also love and respect My African Ones. DOnt preach to me either on here! African Practices and religion was around way b4 Christianity ever was even thought of. YOu came along and spread you superiority complex on your followers!

I know this may sound a stupid question but have you noticed that this is the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and TransgenderED category.

What to Yahoo think happened to us - "Perhaps the Gender fairy sneaked into my bedroom when I was a baby and "Poof - Your Transgendered." I am Transgender - actually I prefer Trans, but it is the way I am, the way I was born - I am not and have never been transgendered.

Do you think Yahoo should change the name of this category to reflect the true situation or continue to insult all trans people, and by implication all LGBT people, in this way?

Being there for a little over a year in the US Army with 1st Infantry Division I found a good comparison of Iraq to another part of the world... the US to be more specific. For those that haven't been to Iraq (fortunately for you), a good comparison of Iraq (to me at least) would be Compton, CA. There are 2 minor exceptions though: insurgents don't wear wifebeater tank tops and pants that hang around their knees... and they're middle-eastern not african-american. Other than that, it's pretty similar... of course the cause for the violence is pretty different too but I assumed that would be obvious and would require no explanation. Would that be a fair comparison???

I am considered well educated, my voice is slightly high pitched at about a tenor range, I practice good hygeine (I'm a bit of a germophobe because I study microbiology and bacteria all day) I've been told I dress well, although I just wear what's comfortable, and I've been told I have a warm personality. So..tell me, WHY does everyone think I'm gay?! Will these stereotypes EVER go away? If you are all of the above things I just mentioned, EVERYONE think I'm gay. The truth is, I'm not. I'm actually a transsexual female to male. So not only were people getting the wrong impression BEFORE my transition, they're STILL getting the wrong impresion AFTER my transition about my sexual preference. Is there any way to fix this? Is it wrong for a guy to be short, well dressed, well educated, considerate, with a semi high pitched voice and STILL like GIRLS? It's getting to the point where I'm afraid to go out to the gay clubs with my old lesbian friends because gay men always hit on me.

Is it shame?

I do have a biological gender, but I can neither identify with my own gender nor the opposite gender. I feel like I'm somewhere in the middle, kind of genderless or something, and I don't seem to fit into any group, I'm always the freak who is nothing like the rest. I have never met anyone who understands this. Does somebody else here feel like this, like you don't have any gender identity at all?

In the old days the wags (wives & girlfriends) of gay men were called their "beards" or in other words their disguise...some Christians want us back in the closet... what's new?
