Hi Jazzfanz, it's been over 5 years since I've posted here. I came across this thread, and read a good chuck of it. I skimmed a lot of it. It stirred up a lot of emotions for me.
Those who remember me from when I was active here, may recall that I am transgender. I'm fairly open about it. I want to give major kudos to GF for being supportive of his daughter. Support from family and friends is so important to a transgender person. It can literally be the different between life and death. I've been fortunate to have some wonderful and supportive friends. Sadly my family is not so supportive. When I came out to my parents, I was told I'm an evil sinner who is going to hell. Told that Satan is making me this way. FYI my parents are Mormon. It's been almost 10 years since I came out to my parents, and they still don't accept it.
I've always been fairly confident in my appearance. I haven't had any issues out in public. That changed a few months ago. I just exited Trax in Downtown to attend a show at Eccles Theater on Main St. As I was crossing the street I heard "eww a tranny" from a boy in a group of 3 boys. First time I've experienced something like that, and it didn't feel good. I don't know why people have to be mean. Just keep your mean ignorant comments to yourself.
Just wanted to add my thoughts to this topic. During the time I was inactive here, GF did actually send me a PM about this. It was nice to hear from him. I remember visiting his house once for a poker game. Always been friendly. I'll stop rambling now. Goodnight.

I'm really happy to see you back!
I imagine people saying comments like that about my daughter when we're out in public and I'll be honest, the way I imagine I would respond probably wouldn't be very good, as in I might escalate the situation instead of taking the high road.
I can't imagine the courage it takes for some people just to be themselves. It's something I've never really had to deal with. I'm so proud of you for having the courage you do and for being true to yourself. Having known you on Jazzfanz and having met you gave me a lot of perspective I wouldn't have had when my daughter told me and my wife.
Thank you!
Welcome back, I hope we can make the board a comfortable place for you, and live well.
I want to reiterate something here. I have a transgender child. If anyone thinks that isn't an influencing factor in who I support for President or who I will vote for, those people are wrong.
I served my nation in uniform willing to die.
I serve the interests of my child 100x more willing to die.
If you threaten the interests of my transgender child you are my enemy. There are no two ways about that.

We can discuss specifics all we want. Trump has done damage to the opportunities my child will have. He has declared himself an enemy of my family. I feel strongly about protecting my family, my community and my nation. But my family comes first.

Respect to you and yours, bit threatening to take the life of the President is not appreciated, and has been reported.

This. I have absolutely no issue with Gameface, I thank him for his service, it's awesome he has a transgender child and he's proud of him/her but this is unacceptable and borderline illegal.
This actually scares me.
