I am starting to be more brave and venture out as my tall fat trans self. So far other then the occasional snicker I have done OK. This article scare me, I am not that confident in myself yet to deal with that kind of blatant direct hate. I will continue to loose weight to conform, but I will never pass either.

I think you are right we need to put up with if nothing else then to make it better for the next group. There are always outcasts in society, it is our turn. Even other trans people are not entirely supportive of fat trans people and I find that most disheartening of all..not sure what the answer is…
