Comments on: Domestic Violence Among the Trans Population http://britisshameless.com/2009/07/domestic-violence-among-the-trans-population/ I'm nothing but a brash and impetuous girl striving to be true to myself while searching for somewhere to belong, someone to love, and a better version of me.

I feel like trans issues get overlooked a lot because unless they're affected by them (through work or something or by knowing a transperson) they're just not something that cis people think about. <br /><br />Anyway, I just wanted to give you some sort of awkward online high-five/thank you, so there you go.

Just like I forgot how many people didn't know the gender terms I used, I forget that people don't know that "DV" is domestic violence.

I often have it open at work AND at home and my 10-year-old was caught sneaking peeks at my screen the other night. I totally respect your right to be as open as you want on your account and am not at all being critical...but I'm not quite ready with explanations for the 10-and-under set yet...<br /><br />Too bad because I enjoy your tweets and find you often have hilarious and relevant things to say...*sad sigh*<br /><br />I'll still be checking in on your blog. Will it be weird to say that I'll miss you? LOL I thought this article was absolutely FULL of useful information and am so glad you shared it with us.
