Rage for Others

[harpsi_fizz]

My little brother Jordeaux has just come out as trans on his facebook. Everyone's leaving him supportive messages and things like that. Then he gets a message from this *I must not use foul language* person that he knows. And I see red.

"Dear ex-friend: Please go away until you can respect me for who I am, and not try to put your baggage on my back."

Also "This does not include people born..." As if what she said wasn't already gross enough.

dude, you give people like this the option to come back? i don't - that ship has fucking sailed.

i would've responded to the first message with "fuck off," blocked her ass (assuming that's possible with facebook), and done my best never to think of her again.

Yeah, I don't expect said person is capable of not shifting her baggage, so it seemed like a safe bet, but you have a point.

I probably would have done similar to what you said.

"I won't entertain the thought in my head"?! Because.. what? It's such a hideous and disgusting thought that you just don't want to deal with it? Uhg.

There's the thing right there! I want to call her out on that statement. "Listen, Princess, we're going to end this right here and now. You stop using the bible as an excuse. We both know that this is all about your own fear of the unknown and your inability to understand what's going on. If you would just admit that it's your own fear, not anything the Bible says (because it doesn't say word one about being transsexual), then we'd all agree that you were thinking for yourself and we would respect your opinion."

Testosterone raaaaage...

Ugh, I'll give some rage. Good luck to your little brother!

I don't even have words for this, so I'm just going to add a RAGE ON and proceed to do just that.
