# I believe all of that stems from trying to claim back an offensive word and in doing so make it less offensive
this was the case with homosexuals claiming the word Queer. The words themselves are still intrinsically offensive but in attempting to claim the word it somehow disarms the bigots - in theory.

But in fact the 'N'-word is still extremely offensive to Black people, even when said by other Black people.

Bigots are bigots and they come in all colours, shapes and sizes.

# Point taken
I just find it strange thats all. Like lesbians who hate men but dress up and try to look like one. Do you have an explanation for this?

# I think people are people they have all kinds of hang ups
Not all lesbians dress like men, but I think it's more that they hate the attitudes of men rather than hating all men. Sexuality is sexuality I'm not going to judge others by their tastes unless it's something genuinely wrong. "Stop doing that Mediocre!" ;)

# I know they don't hate all men just the butch boy looking ones.
I'm only joking but I hope you know what I mean in a strange sort of way.

# I know what you're getting at but it is a generalisation.
As a female busdriver I'm often accused of being a lesbian because it's such a male-dominated job. There are a few lesbian busdrivers and they are all lovely people and are not in anyway "Men Haters" or even that butch, they just happen to be attracted to other women.

As for the "Butch Boy" ones you mention have you ever thought they may be Gender Dsyphoric (transsexuals) rather than lesbians - there is a big difference between gender identity and sexuality.

# I know a tranny when I see one.
big hands, adams apple, midnight shadow etc. I've got nothing against them after all they are no threat to me, unless they gang up and duff me up in a dark allyway in London.

# See this is exactly the kind of bigotry the world could do without - sorry but you obviously do have something against "them".

# I don't honestly
I just don't get it thats all.
No offense intended whatsoever.

I appologise to any who has taken offence.

# I don't think it's for you to "get". Be happy to know people are different and have different goals in life
it would be a very dull world if we were all the same.
