No, no, no, no, no. I wouldn’t say so many no’s if I didn’t think you weren’t trying to understand what I’m saying there. Follow the train of thought (probably best by re-reading what I said more carefully, though I told you it would be screwy, but you’re tripping up very early isn’t too encouraging), MariaCB said, as I have often heard, that tg’s hate their body. My response is, aren’t bodies supposed to be loved? Love is a decision, not an emotion or a lusting. If love were lust, then every married man, at least, would be guilty of lust, and that just isn’t so. So I am saying, love, not lust, would be most easily cultivated towards the opposite sex, would it not? So if you think your female, why would you HATE a body which is that very object? Now, realize, I am not attracted to males, and I am male, and yet I do not hate my male nody, nor other male bodies. So I was attempting to say that when tg’s make such a statement, that I imagine that they don’t literally hate their bodies, as that makes no sense, but rather hate the situation where the mind thinks the body should be something else. More difficult to say to be sure, but “perhaps” more accurate. If that is not the case, and a tg literally hates the body they have when they say such things, then why is it I can hate neither body, but they can hate their own? To hate it would be to suggest that the body is at fault and isn’t worthy of love (and I don’t mean lust). In case it still doesn’t sink in, I’m talking about the honor due a body, or love for it, not for doing things God would not approve of to it (lust). I mean I don’t go around every day saying to myself, I love my body, oh and I love all bodies, both male and female, btu ii woudl think that would be proper to all persons; a due respect. To say you hate a particular body, especially your own, doesn’t seem to give it the proper respect it deserves. But, as I say, I think it’s more about a tg wishing for cohesion between mind and body, and far less about anything resembling hate, but I’m not the one saying it either, so I ask.
