I was thinking tonight and wonder if anti-lgbt groups are jealous of us? I have learned that the people who are the most vehement about denying us our rights (see Ted Haggard) are often struggling with the same issue. Why? Is it that we have chosen to live authenticly? Is it that we are making our presence felt in the political and social arenas? Is it that many of the myths many people have about transgender people are being broken down? Are they jealous that we will not hide or be ashamed anymore?
Jealousy can make people do irrational things. Sadly, many don't know why they hate us. Whenever one says the bible says it's wrong, I would ask 'show me'. I'm crazy like that I guess. The bible has been used to justified many things that are dead wrong. I'm a Christian who reads and studies scripture. One thing is consistent; God loves everyone no matter who they are. Any one who calls themseves 'Christians' and discriminates against a group of people need to examine their faith and if they are following Jesus' example.
To be continued.....

What a well written post, you hit the nail on the head about the jealousy part. This is proven every single time a 'conservative republican' is caught in a compromising situation, soliciting gay sex -- the very thing they fight so hard against.
It's sad that they cannot embrace who they really are. Problem is that they are more interest n being one of the guys or girls instead of being themselves.
