Females or Women?
Ever since I can remember, I have been fascinated with the feminine gender. As with many of you, it's difficult to explain the deep, deep yearning I had to be a woman.
Of course any success I have experienced in the transition process has been self taught and I wonder when I see genetic females who aren't women, I wonder why.
One of my pet gender ideas is "just because you are female, you aren't necessarily a woman." When I watch my daughter "interact and coach" my 13 year old granddaughter I understand why. She is actively involved in how she stands, dresses and even does traditional feminine past times such as baking. I'm dazzled when Ms 13 year old Math and Science wizard bakes.
On the other hand, I just don't grasp how so many females have no idea or will power to be women. Then again, a dear friend who passed away some time ago told me it seemed to her so many women weren't teaching their daughters to be...women.
So maybe that's it. Where I live, we have an extremely high teen maternity rate. I know the stats reflect more than kids having kids and young females just being "baby makers". Self esteem and family conditions play into their lives too.
None of that takes away from the fact I don't understand why these females so easily toss chances to be women away. Especially when I know so many transgender women who can't wait to get out of the closet and have their day in the sun.
