Tell me honestly what does this woman son have to do with anything. If they claim to represent "femininity" I doubt that this lady thinks that she is a man. That is the thing that pisses me off the most. You all think because we like women we want to be men. I mean OMG! That woman's poem could be taken anyway, but of course one of you would take it as if she thinks she is a man, I mean how closed minded can you be. Get a grip ladies for real!

Since I assume you were referring to my post about the son issue, let me clarify. I now know that the woman has a son that she proudly raises. Good for her. In my intial post I was genuinely confused as to the wording of her webpage. Now I am clear. I didn't think she "wanted to be a man." Please. I found it somewhat startling to see a poem in that context written by a female. I am not used to a woman referencing another woman, or herself for that matter, by saying "you da man."
I can't blame you for your perception about my post, but if ever my intentions are ambiguous, I would rather you pm me for clarification than to post a frantic plea for everyone to get a grip. Thanks.
P.S. If you find me close-minded, feel free to pm me and we can discuss a myriad of gay rights issues, such as the Stonewall uprising.
