First of all, I apologize in advance if I offend anyone, but this thread strikes me the way one of those "help me find love" threads does, where the best thing to say is that you can't love somebody else until you love yourself. Second, I do not presume to pass judgment on anyone based on whether or not they want to identify as a "girl" or "woman" because that is not the issue. The issue is whether or not you identify as a person, first and foremost. If you act like you are more female than you are human, you will attract company that treats you that way. Likewise, if you treat people like they are male and female before they are human, they will behave less and less like human beings. It really is that simple, even if it takes a little while to experience it before you can trust that it is.
