Transbashing

Transbashing

A Poem by therisa

Toughening up the "sissy"
Rebuilding a macho man
Assault with deadly force
Neutralize the "freaks"
"Sissies" beware
Breaking one's spirits
An irrational act
Symbol of intolerance
Humanity's hubris
Ignorance fueled fear
Naming a scapegoat
Gored by madness.

Sadly, I have experienced this, several times, before I became passable, as a woman.
