The Seven Sisters are seven historical women’s colleges back East that were established in the 1800′s. All are relatively elite institutions. They include Mt. Holyoke, Bryn Mawr, Smith, Barnard, Radcliffe, Vassar and Wellesley. Radcliffe merged with Harvard, and Vassar started accepting male students a while ago. However, all of these colleges are now accepting a certain kind of “male” student, as this post will make clear. Famous grads range from anthropologist Margaret Mead (Barnard) to actresses Stockard Channing (Radcliffe) and Meryl Streep (Vassar) to Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (Wellesley).
There have definitely been some major changes at these colleges in recent years. For instance, one of my mother’s best friends went to Wellesley in the 1950′s. At that time, there was little lesbianism at that school or at most women’s colleges for that matter. However, in recent years, almost all historical women’s colleges in the US have become heavily swarmed with lesbians. It’s not that everyone at Wellesley and other schools is lesbian or bisexual (there are many straight female students there) but the lesbian element is very strong there, and if you are a student there, you will be aware of the lesbians constantly.
What has happened? Are there more lesbians in the US now than there were then? Who knows?
But the experience at women’s colleges has definitely changed, and there is much more lesbianism there than there used to be.
Transmen are female to male transsexuals. Usually they start out taking male hormones and then they move onto surgery. Breast removal, a frightening procedure to contemplate for a woman for sure, is quite common. The final step is the construction of a fake and non-functioning appendage-like penis.
Transmen often look very much like boys or men. There are some photos of transmen at the link, and it is a shock to see them. One transman is now growing a beard!
The presence of transmen on campus has created quite a controversy at these schools. For one thing, the constitutions of the schools have had to be changed and the word “they” substituted for the word “she.” In addition, instructors are told to refer to transmen as “he” and “him.” Transmen often introduce themselves by saying, “Hello, I am Jim, and I use male pronouns.”
The problem is that all of these schools are all girls colleges. Except that now transmen are there too. And a transman is…what? A male? A female? A heshe? A whatsit? Who the Hell knows what they are!
However quite a few female students think they should not be there because they have no business as virtual males having a presence at an all-girls’ school. A common question is, “If they wanted to turn into men, why in the Hell did they enroll at an all-girls school?”
To me, transmen are very odd, but perhaps this is acceptable.
There are two types of transsexuals. One type seems biological, freaks of nature. They claim to have felt like the opposite sex from a very early age. I am sympathetic to these folks. The condition appears to be innate and is incurable.
There is a second type which in my opinion is simply an extreme form of homosexuality. In the case of many transmen, they simply have an extreme form of lesbianism. I am not so sympathetic to this second type because they do not seem to innately of the wrong gender and freaks of nature. To me they seem more like “flakes of nature.”
Readers, how do you feel about this. What is your reactions to the article. Personally, I look at those transmen and while I may support their decision, the whole phenomenon looks bizarre as Hell.
