My Own Personal Ignorance

This blog entry is going to be a bit different this time. If this is your first time reading this let me tell you that this is not the first time I touched on this subject. First I mentioned it with my review of the LGBTQ here:

And I also glazed over it with my brutal review of myself here:

Once you get to know me you will come to realize that Kendra is Kendra’s biggest critic and just an FYI, I don’t talk in the third person.

And if you are lucky enough to find yourself right here, right now reading this blog let me apologize because you will get the chance experience me vomiting confusion all over you.

In a way you can call me an unintentional, well-meaning bigot but I am working hard to overcome it and I know eventually I will get there. See here is the thing, like it or not, intentional or not the media, be it social, news outlets or some guy with a grudge, is turning transgender girls against the gender queer.

As in, “look girls, see this guy with a beard with lipstick and a dress? Well he is what transgender looks like…He is what will be using the bathroom next to your baby girl.”

Interesting, so when transgender girls see this as a campaign against them it lays the foundation for animosity. (See not my fault)

And then you have the performers…. Let me ask the tough questions, the questions you don’t hear anywhere else… Please for the love of god, can anyone tell me what purpose this serves? Is it art? Does anyone actually still enjoy this?

Look people are curious, it’s an oddity and I suppose since the transgender community is so small people are curious to see what it is all about but let me stop you right there; Drag queens, in most cases, are NOT transgender.

So is it artistic expression? Some sort of circus side show? Or maybe people just enjoy handing out dollar bills for a lip-syncing, gay man in a dress while donning a clown wig.

And the line becomes blurred; in general people are exposed more to drag queens than they are transgender women. And now the general population has a picture of who they think I am and what I look like. I am, in their eyes, an over-exaggerated caricature of who I am.

Get it?

I know that it is not the drag queen’s fault that I am being compared to them and I know that it isn’t the gender queer individual’s fault that they are the face of the anti-bathroom issue. But at the same time, in a way, it is not my fault that I become aggravated over these issues.

Don’t even get me started on the porn industry and how that translates to transgender dating. “No, I am not a shemale, no I do not want to dominate you, and NO I WILL NOT meet you in the park for a quickie; oh while I am thinking of it, I am not a transsexual or tranny or diva or GURL, it is spelled GIRL for those of you that have forgotten how to spell.

And yea, ok maybe the mostly, gay men that, in my opinion, enjoy putting on “blackface” while dancing and moving their lips like a five year old in front of a mirror to their favorite song, who knows maybe they were influenced by RuPaul's Drag Race. (Do not get me started)

So you have the right to make a living but this is my life so please, while I am working through this with my therapist, be patient.

Remember, this is inside the mind of Kendra Chelsea; I do not claim to be right, this blog isn’t about that, this is the steps I have taken to be the girl (GIRL) that I have always knew myself to be. This is my most intimate, private thoughts meant to help people understand what might be next in their life.

And worse, this is inside the mind of Kendra Chelsea off her Adderall with her doctor’s appointment still a week away.
