A male-IDing as a woman talks about his quest to “get myself a cis woman.”

“I chased after cis women, thinking that they were the prize. They were what I still wanted. In my mind, I thought, I look good.. I think I can get myself a cis women again.”

“I still have body issues. I want GRS. I am also afraid of it. I am afraid of the surgery. I am afraid of the thought of mutilating perfectly healthy tissue. People tell me that lesbians may be more open to date you if you get it.”

“I like and/or have dated, men, women, tranwomen, transmen, lesbians, bisexuals, and other pansexuals. Cis women always seem to come out on the top of the heap though. The look and feel of their bodies is just plain magical.”

“I was hoping to take full advantage of the progressive attitudes... of the great San Francisco Bay Area. I was hoping to find an open minded cis-lesbian woman who would be open to... explore a relationship.”

“So far, I have been sorely disappointed. It’s The Cotton Ceiling. No one told me about this when I signed up. Its nowhere in the Trans Manual. Maybe its just not talked about, or maybe I was just not listening yet. Cis gender lesbians do…not…want…us.”

“They resist the penis. The penis to them is the Devil. Anything having to do with penises, they unequivocally oppose, regardless of whether it is exclusionary or irrational.”

Bonus points for calling us irrational.

For anyone not familiar with the #cottonceiling :

“The term Cotton Ceiling is a reference to the ‘glass ceiling’ that second wave feminists identified in the workforce... The cotton represents underwear, signifying sex.”

Isn’t that just the best?

“I will press on... I am no quitter... I will continue the quest for my fair maiden. The Cotton Ceiling must be broken. We are not perverted men seeking to rape lesbians & turn them into slaves to the patriarchy... We are women. Love us like one.”

No.
