I’ve been getting a lot of abuse online over my entry yesterday, especially in this tract of utterly unsubstantiated, patronising bile. It calls on me to take that post offline – a demand born of intolerance and the will to censor, albeit delivered to seem to ‘appeal to my humanity’. I will do no such thing! I wrote what I did with the best of intentions, and stick by what I said. For people to call me a transphobe for it is utterly insulting and makes me very angry indeed. In fact I had trouble sleeping because of it. For this arrogant p’tahk to think they can lecture me about being trans, in the most patronising, condescending tone makes me shudder with rage. I can tell you firsthand of the dangers and persecution transpeople face; I don’t have to parrot it out of a bool. I put across my concerns and thoughts in a calm, tolerant and fair way; yet it would seem certain people cannot tolerate me holding views which differ from theirs.

ADDENDUM nov 27. I have replaced the entry, as it was playing on my mind – I had no right to judge another person.
