[QUOTE="mindstorm"]I make an attempt to learn about various cultures, languages, religions, and geographical regions causing me to have a certain book knowledge on the world. However, in no conceivable way do I as a white male in America feel as if I truly grasp the world in which the rest of humanity lives.ghoklebutter

So if you were a biracial, transgender, bisexual woman, you'd know everything.

I fit in all three of those categories, and I have never claimed to know everything. However, usually, more privileged folks can't understand the plight of underprivileged groups as readily as underprivileged folks. Privileged folks shouldn't be blamed for having a clouded perspective of the lives of underprivileged groups, as privileged folks are only that way because of their life experience, but it's something they should be at least be aware of.

You were born a guy became a woman then proceeded to date other women?

Essentially nothing. Anybody who thinks they understand the world is full of sh*t.

I wasn't born male; I was just born with a male body. My real sex always has and always will be female, whether I transition or not (although I will transition as soon as I get the chance to do so).

Nor have I dated anyone.
