Respect

All right. People always confuse of the difference between gay and transexual. Well, lets talk about the similarities of these two groups. First of all, we are all man and secondly, we are attracted to men too. But different wise, we are obviously different. Gay is a man who are attracted to another man but still maintaining the physical appearance and behaviour like any other men we seen on TV or in the streets.

While on the other hand, transexual is another story. Physically, they preferred to think that they are a woman hence they tried to change their appearance to look like a real woman. Some of them go beyond the limit by actually "removed" the unwanted-not-so-girl-part from their body.For instance, Isis, the contestant from the America's Next Top Model cycle 11. She undergo hormone therapy in order to change her body system from a man to a woman. That is little scary hah? Personally, it is scary enough for me. :D

Both parties are different to the other but somehow we always back each other up, or the easy gay slang, we are "sisters". We could be best friends too. But, there are certain gay guys who does not want to be with the transgender even for a friend. Honestly, I have friends from the transgendered and they are doing very well in studies, co-curriculars and job wise. In fact, there are quite a few transgenders who were successful in their career, for example in Malaysia, Nurul Shukor the professional make-up artiste.

I do not agree with the attitude of those gay guys because the bottom line is, we are all human. And it is very important for people to respect others and also to gain respects no matter you are gay, straight, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered etc.

"when a man put on a dress and get his sexual kick, he is a transvestite. when a woman trap in a man's body and undergo for a little operation, he is a transexual. when a gay man has too much fashion sense for one gender, he is a drag queen"
