Sex Orientation Scale

The main reason for this entry is for educating those who do not understand transgender or as my therapist coined it as trans* in Journeys of Transformation by Reid Vanderburgh and is a must read. Also I highly recommend True Selves, understanding transsexualism.

Many people think there is one type of person that dresses and/or acts as if in the opposite gender which is a complete fallacy as there is well documented papers and research on this as shown below. The following shows the different groups for gender role disorientation

Here is a page of terms that cover valid and invalid definitions for Transgender issues.

Learn how men treat woman

In my former life I taught self-defense on a weekly basis which as both fun and taxing since being a senior instructor for a group that was extremely busy meant I was also teaching one night a week for four hours and on most weekends taught one or two days then now and then even took off work for special classes such as military heading to the sandbox that wanted last minute training.

I belonged too several forums specific to talking about all facets of self-defense and many times specifically with firearms and had been a respected member. So now I have left the majority of this behind and have signed up as Karen and noticed sometimes I am not taken seriously which I heard would happen even with the same knowledge and expertise I see females are not taken the same as men. A wise woman told me that “It’s a man’s world” and expect to be treated differently when it comes to things that I am an expert on.

My background includes certifications in teaching close quarter combat, edge weapons, firearms, LEO baton and handcuffing along with several other things which I will not go into here. It’s going to be interesting to see how things go thinking online but there is no doubt that I can hold my own person to person as I am well versed in the areas above.

So it begins~
