Part 2 of 3 - The F@got Incident -This is my reality. This is reality for many of us. Tonight while coming home from work on the NYC subway, I was talking to a coworker while, a guitarist played nearby. He was begging for money and came over to me. I noticed him look me up and down and said the following. "I would like to dedicate my next song to Bruce Jenner's surgeon." He then began to play the song "A Natural Woman." After playing a small part of the song he stops and says, "You get it. He's not a natural woman." This really triggered me. Earlier on in my transition I was often too scared to do anything. Not these days. I stick up for myself and I won't take your sh*t. Tonight, I decided to confront his bigoted ass and call him out on what he said. This man is a coward and same with the guy who decided to call me a faggot while sticking up for myself. I didn't even get a glimpse of him because he literally ran off the train. Cowards. Look at this guys smug face. Makes me sick. I know I will never forget it. I will probably reshare this again and hoping some of you wont forget his face either. I'm sure some of you reading or watching this don't understand why this is so offensive? Check your privilege. Try replacing the topic of his jokes. Imagine he was sitting there making really stupid but hurtful jokes about an identity you have deep in your core. Imagine sitting there hearing his jokes as others laughed about what you are. Can you imagine people laughing about something that hurts your feelings. Imagine if it was about your race, your religion, your age, or weight......Imagine. Sorry if I seem triggered but I am just sick of this crap. We are not some stupid punchline. We are people and many of us are the strongest people you will ever know. The man continued to talk about me while he played for the rest of his trip. I hope someone can find me this mans name. I hope Karma gets him.
