if they knew what they where fighting for would they still fight for it

Have you ever had one of those talks with someone that when you walk away from it it changes your relationship with that person forever. I had one of those talks yesterday with a roommate and I find myself telling myself if she knew what she was fighting for she wouldn’t be fighting for it. On a lot of levels I would think she would know better because she is a transwomen but somehow she seems not to have gained any insight form that. We got into talking about cocks and transguys which is somewhere I didn’t want to go, not with her. She started talking about what a transguy grows below the belt and what she thinks it’s genetically equal to and how it can’t be called a cock because it’s not the same and how we can only call it a head of a cock because it doesn’t have all the parts that a bio-guys does. Her argument went on for sometime including what she thought of guys that got bottom surgery and she tossed our front holes into the talk as well. Something in me broke during this talk and wanted to yell out. I tried to get her to see how hurtful she was being by trying to get her to see by explaining what she was doing by asking her how she would feel if I told a transwomen that she couldn’t call what she had after surgery her pussy because it was not genetically the same as a bio-women’s. And heres the shocker she said that it wasn’t and that it was just tissue shaped in the form of one. This from a transwomen that loves her cock and id’s with it which is maybe why she is not understanding and clueless. I just feel hurt and shocked at the same time because straight people wouldn’t treat me this way so why would someone in my community do so. I wrote her a e-mail yesterday night before going to bed trying to explain how she made me feel and I hope she reads it soon. I just still can’t believe it all.

That's really lame that she did that. She does sound worse than hetero's when she says stuff like that. I know that I've been there for quite a bit of the stuff my bf, who is trans, has had to go through, and I know that even the slightest thing can be incredibly traumatizing and that just sounds like she was being very insensitive.
