I watched the documentary on Chaz’s transition. With all the testosterone, Chaz is acting like a man and her lesbian partner got a little miffed by it. It’s not a man thing as much as it is the drugs have changed Chaz’s personality a bit and her partner misses the old Chastity, who had feminine sensibilities and behaviors.

It was an interesting show. I believe that most of these people have true chemical/endocrine/brain/whatever issues that make them see themselves as the ‘wrong’ gender. I think most people would never submit to the body mutilation that transgenders do unless they really believed they were different. I give them a pass; life is hard enough and they’ve made it harder. I don’t need to add to it.

I will say I never understood why Chaz kept on the weight. You’d think that in the process of getting all this surgery, you’d go on a diet as well. : )

I agree with all of that. I was merely making light of the situation with that "couple".

However, when it comes to the "logic" involved with those two, I still stand by my statements that, the whole thing is illogical, especially in the case of Chaz, who, if he really feels like a man on the "inside", he would be looking for a heterosexual female and not a lesbian.
