    Is it trans-pee or trans-pi?

    ---------- Post added 7th Nov 2014 at 11:24 PM ----------

    You know, this site is really great because I get to talk to people without them hearing my voice. The whole backwards thing makes it so I talk funny (especially about topics of interest), and I don't meet people by myself willing to talk to me. Other than Jackie. But he's kind of like a transpie, only instead a very accepting gay-aspie (gayspie?).

    I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one present in this forum with speech problems.

    What is Pragmatic Language Impairment?

    I have a formal diagnosis for this condition (from a legit doctor and everything!), and I think I have a relatively mild case, but I'm not really sure.

    I get teased for my "Victorian Gentleman" style of speech. I also tend to speak in a monotone at times, or use weird fake inflection. I learned how to speak really fast, though....

    I had a dream where I closed my anime tab on my phone without remembering what episode I was on... That is a nightmare for me...

    I do not even understand what that means... I understand Thomas the Train, not actual normal grown-up (or teenager) things.

    I am not the only one? I said this to my sister, and she told me "that sort of thing didn't exist back then". Oh, okay. Maybe they weren't prominent or proud or they were killed silently for honor, but they existed. That's like saying there were no autistic children then.

    SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS! ABSORBENT AND YELLOW AND POROUS IS HE?

    Actually, queerness was fairly accepted in ancient Chinese society. Multiple emperors were gay, from what I can recall. And transliness TOTALLY EXISTED ALL THROUGHOUT HUMAN HISTORY. There just wasn't a name for it.

    One of my favorite historical figures is Albert Cashier. He was born as Jenny Hodges, fought in the American Civil War (presenting as male), and lived for many years as a man. Finally, he went senile, was chucked into an asylum, and "found out" as FAAB. They made him wear a dress - but he was so unused to them, he tripped over the skirt and broke his.... hipbone, I think, which led to his death.

    Actually, my favorite Civil War general, Stonewall Jackson, is thought to have had Aspergers. (!)

    There's this scientist guy named Alan L. Hart, and I love him. He practically live his entire life as male, even though he was born before 1900. He was the first FTM to get a psychiatrist's aid in gender reassignment surgery, and the first documented case in America to undergo FTM surgery. He got married to women (2 or 3, not sure),. He also wrote books and short stories and did tuberculosis research on X-rays. He died in the early 1960's.

    SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS! THEN DROP ON THE DECK AND FLOP LIKE A FISH!

    YOU FORGOT THE "READY"!!!! MY LIFE IS SAD!

    He is on Wikipedia. I was doing a self project where I wrote in my best cursive (which is pretty good thanks to OT) a bunch of successful LGBT+ people on an index card in bright colors, with names of hate crime victims in black around the edges.

    Ooooo thanks, I'll look him up! Hah, my handwriting - cursive or otherwise - looks like spider poop. And not in a good way.

    (Is there ever a "good way" for spider poop to look?)
