U.S. Marine accused of murdering a Filipino TG woman

Quote:I agree; however, one shouldnt pose as a certain gender, especially if theyre soliciting, and then pull the switcheroo. Guy going out for some seafood doesnt want to end up at the sausage market.
Very good point. Very much agree.

 

Doesn't justify killing though.

What he's describing is a bonafide "trap," not someone who is transgendered, though...just sayin'.

 

The article doesn't give us enough information to determine what's going on in any case. Whether trap or transgender, it sure as <expletive> worth killing over.

Yes, I get that. I am able to differentiate.

The attitudes towards transgendered women are much different in Asia, especially in the Philippines and Thailand, than here. In the Philippines it is more common that they will live openly as women than in western countries. Some are even recognized as children and raised as girls from a young age. On the flip side, fathers have been known to kill their young sons if they suspect them to be even effeminate.

 

It is a country of contradictions. Predominately Catholic and conservative, it is hard for TG women to find employment unless it is a job not requiring personal interaction, like online or telephone customer service representatives. They cannot marry nor will Filipino men openly date them in general. Too often their main opportunities for earning money are prostitution or, more recently, as web cam "models". On the other hand they are accepted and often even held in esteem in their communities. Beauty pageants for TG women are very popular, and are sponsored by local governments as part of festivities on national and religious holidays.

 

They aren't freaks, they aren't cross dressers, it's not a fetish They have just been dealt a tough hand with which to play in the game of life.

Since we don't have much to go on, who knows? If she tried to rob or extort him, murder may be explainable. If it's just a case of a guy getting trapped, I think not. Just say no thanks, leave the room. It's not like it's a challenge to one's manhood. In the victim's culture, men who have sex with TS women are not considered to be gay, or even bisexual.

Quote:Hey, I work with transgender people, they are just like you and me. Do you realize that The Transgender, Transsexual Suicide rate is 31%. Over 50% of them have had one suicide attempt by age 20? That's why I'm a suicide prevention councilor
online for this group of people. Your attitiude just makes it more difficult for them to just live day to day. All they want is to be left alone and live their lives as they see fit. So what if it doesn't conform to the norms of society.
I responded to this last night, but some  overzealous loser hid the response. If you care, send me a PM. I will be more than happy to respond again via PM.

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

Transsexual mean they have changed, Transgender is the state of one's gender identity or gender expression not matching one's birth sex.
