Her sordid past aside, for better or for worse ,her situation creates a potential for establishing precedence. To say she does not deserve widow's entitlements, that any Gold Digging cisgendered woman would receive, only defeats the purpose. An anti-role model foray from the gay and trans community at this pivotal juncture stands to trivialize this issue and it's what normal society wants; gays/trans to believe we never deserved parity with straights in the first place so let the movement rot from the inside out. Let her have her cake and eat it too, but with humility realize what's really at stake and what the crux if the actual issue at hand really is. There is a fundamental and self evident level of respect people deserve and should be upheld by law. Let's let the bigots sweat the small shit and continue to celebrate these small feats in our cause if anything so others, who like Nikki prolly never set out or tought we'd be trailblazers, don't get any more help fucking it up for the rest of us.<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08339405923647475912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-80464548474863874932013-07-17T11:52:45.983-04:002013-07-17T11:52:45.983-04:00ummm...my last post...on pounding dry dilator etc....ummm...my last post...on pounding dry dilator etc...WAS A TEST ....CUZ THE SITES ""CAPTCHA"" was giving me FADED frustrating words..lol....but i really do luv us in TRANSEXUALISMs worlds...and glbt....im glad the site updated....and i do endorse my other cmmnts about mrs arraguz and to the hubby lie of hiv exposure...that was low and a lie....and most mtf srs women are not able to transmit hiv from a hole that is NON MUCOSAL...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-86441632112809644652013-07-16T15:44:38.369-04:002013-07-16T15:44:38.369-04:00all of u go pound a wooden splintered dilator into...all of u go pound a wooden splintered dilator into ur dry holesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-90677381329777260932013-07-16T15:40:08.690-04:002013-07-16T15:40:08.690-04:00uhhh...yur dumass husband had fun...get over it..i...uhhh...yur dumass husband had fun...get over it..its 50/50 Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-47674975798830141072013-07-16T15:37:59.988-04:002013-07-16T15:37:59.988-04:00..firstly its 2013 july....shez a woman...and if p.....firstly its 2013 july....shez a woman...and if packing...still a woman via hormone therapy /intersexed/ psych/transexualism..as to divorce settlmnt...yes..grant it all to her rightfully as married wife female...gay marriage also..furthermore...leave issues of awful person/ality to her psych therapist to deal with...could be chemical imbalance..fyi 2013 dr.s are not wanting srs mtf or nonops to have Low "t" ...very unhealthy...blessings to her...Kiersten woodsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-39300717064778905132013-06-24T12:28:17.911-04:002013-06-24T12:28:17.911-04:00I realize this is an old blog post, but I thought ...I realize this is an old blog post, but I thought I would add that Nikki, who is HIV positive, had unprotected sex with my husband at a booze soaked Halloween party.

Though this blog thread has been dead ...Elizabeth,<br /><br />Though this blog thread has been dead for almost a year I think it's relevant to say a few things in light of recent events involving Nikki's arrest and jailing. <br /><br />Nikki has taken on this activist role without perhaps without understanding and the best intentions as she does appear to be far to self-promoting. So I agree with you that Nikki has made many poor choices and does not make the best role model for the transsexual community however she still needs our support given her current situation and the way in which she is being addressed by her former name rather than her legal name. We can make moral judgements of the person while still supporting her legal rights, especially in the public eye inasmuch as this matter concerns us all significantly. The deliberate misaddress Nikki has expereinced, plus her placement among the male population despite her post-op status is due to her being a transsexual and not because she broke the law. Outside of the fact of her not having been convicted at ths time, she is clearly not receiving the same treatment as any other cisgendered member of the prison population.<br /><br />I realize that I am writing based on recent events not obviously including in your original blog post but I would just like to add that we cannot afford to take a position against Nikki in which call into question her very being as a transsexual without giving our opponents more to use against us. I am convinced that, with respect to our ongoing struggle for respect and dignity, there is no winning the game in which we pick and choose who we support or do not based on moral issues alone, not particularly when the person in question was thrust unexpectedly into the public light by tragic events.<br /><br />I am a fully transitioned TS myself, also an engineer(electronics).<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Penny L.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10742370989682805330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-82432996612306568612011-05-29T22:43:15.968-04:002011-05-29T22:43:15.968-04:00The whole thing is just so completely effed up... ...The whole thing is just so completely effed up... she is in, presumably, the appeals process for this trial, the description of her reality show solicits photos and bios for prospective dates, while purporting to show the "real-life complexities of being a transsexual in this modern age."<br /><br />Yet another example of a show which will claim to show people what this is like, but will only speak for the extreme tail of the bell curve when it comes to the "typical" transsexual woman.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-76692346630885151052011-05-26T22:58:50.455-04:002011-05-26T22:58:50.455-04:00Couldn't agree more.

The facts and the black-letter law were right there, game over, y'know? <br /><br />So I get to wondering... remember about a year ago, when the LGBT blogs were pushing their "Marriage Equality is a Trans Issue" tripe? What if they really thought that this was their big marriage-equality test case? <br /><br />"He's so pretty, maybe people will give it to 'her' and then any two pee-pees can claim 'similar situation!' We get 'gay marriage' YAY!!!"<br /><br />It follows with how the LGs think of TSs and fits hand in glove with that "All The World Is A Gayborhood" mindset they seem to have. They're so insulated from the straight world, and so unable to understand the mentality of straight people, they might actually have believed it could work. Just a thought I had, anyway.Andrea Rosenfieldnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-42040828625574692172011-05-25T19:45:57.144-04:002011-05-25T19:45:57.144-04:00Given that it is in evidence that Nikki Araguz was...Given that it is in evidence that Nikki Araguz was pre-op when she married Thomas, I'm amazed that she ever tried to fight this. I'm amazed that any lawyer, even one all about fighting for "LGBT" rights, would have touched the case. It was lost from the start. I guess she thought she could bluff her way through, but nothing remains secret like that. Her marriage was not legal in Texas (or, as you say, in most other states). That should have been the end of the story.<br /><br />Instead, we have damage.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944795231126319421.post-39616020223116141662011-05-25T18:33:02.559-04:002011-05-25T18:33:02.559-04:00I agree with every word Liz.

It's sad in many ways but anyone with half a brain should have realised the danger in Nikki's narrative. <br /><br />The sad truth about the cult that surrounds Nikki is that they are all enamoured of the way Nikki looks. She is transsexual no doubt about that and she is femininely beautiful. So unlike any of the leaders in TG heirearchy. Including Cristan Williams. They were all over Nikki like a rash based solely on how Nikki looks. Nikki's life is littered with poor choices, criminal choices not one simple error of judgement but a whole littany!<br /><br />The damage however has been done and nothing is going to stop the runaway train that this case represents and as a result USA risks becomming the one country on the entire planet where transsexuals cannot marry their opposite sex partners except perhaps as a gay couple. Ironic since at one time USA led the world in the acceptance and treatment of transsexuals. OK maybe that is taking the issue too far, however the risk is there.<br /><br />CassandraspeaksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
