Transsexual love written in blood
» Gender Outsiders: Transgendered & Others
One man met another and fell in love. And the love persisted even when one of them became a woman.
It took six proposals - and six rejections - before Miss Zhong Jie Xi (hanyu pinyin) agreed to marriage.
And even then, it took a letter written in blood in front of more than 100 friends that finally broke her strong will.
There was nothing Miss Zhong would have liked more than to be married to her boyfriend of two years, but her love for him stopped her from saying yes.
You see, Miss Zhong, who is from Subang, is not an ordinary woman.
She used to be a man.
Comments
Umm, this is whole thing is kinda weird, but I just want to comment on a specific phrase.
“You see, Miss Zhong, who is from Subang, is not an ordinary woman. She used to be a man.”
Clearly, if Miss Zhong used to suffer from transsexualism, and and has now beem cured, then she is not an ordinariy woman.
But what is totally out of order is to say “she used to be a man”.
This is the sensationailst, Jerry Springer viewpoint.
One’s sex identiy is not determined by the presence of a willy or a pussy. It is determined by the the knowledge of ‘who you are’. In the case of transsexual people, it involves taking the soul out and giving it a very hard stare.
Sometimes, the soul says I am a girl, even though the body states I have a willy.
It only happens about 1 per 1000 (that’s right!) but it does happen. A transsexual woman never was born a man. Just a woman with a willy.
According to your report, Miss Zhong never used to be a man.
Best wishes, Donna Patricia
