"Men get treated like s***" [View all]
'Men get treated like s***,' he says. 'I mean, I know women get treated like s*** all the time. But like, when youre a man, people just bump into you all over the place. You have to hold doors, but nobody says thank you. And you dont get compliments, ever.'

The quote is from a female to male transsexual.
And yes, I know it's from the daily fail. And they probably only included it because they could use the words transexual and lesbians in the same sentence and it's essentially a tabloid.
But I for one would be interested in hearing more about such experiences. Either male to female or female to male gender changes. It would give a unique perspective on the issue of how we treat men and women. Especially since most of us really can't realistically spend any amount of time living as a member of the opposite sex.
I suspect their unique perspective on gender issues explains why transsexuals are not generally welcome in radfem circles. Which is unfortunate.
