I like to watch documentaries... I usually don't look them up... I just put on the TV and then I see something interesting and want to see more. Today when I put on the TV there was the end of a documentary about the science of our genders. They said that there is not only two genders, there are more. The documentary was a lot about transexual people and I really felt for their situation. Imagine feeling like you are born with the wrong gender like they do. Imagine people not believing you and people telling you to act and do certain things and wear certain things just because you were born in a specific gender and Imagine those people who are born with two genders and the parents or the doctors decides what gender they should have. They have no chance themself to decide over their own lifes. Is this really right? No, of course not. So stupid. All of this because of stupid rules in the society. Stupid narrowmindness. People are not their gender, there is so much more to people then just a gender and no one should be questioned about their identity. It is none of others business... it only concerns yourself.
What I really dislike is narrow-mindedness... how can we ever say that something is the "rule" when we don't even have the evidence for it? We have to be open for that things may not be the way that we have been taught. There are not 2 genders. There are 3... at least. And many millions of people are born transexual or borned with both female and male organs. It is about time we all accept this. To accept that people are different. There is nothing wrong with differening from "the norm". I'm quite sure that in some areas we all differ somehow. Like me being a woman interested in computer games. Well it is more common nowadays but we are still in minority. I know women who are much more of gamers then I am. But the thing is that everyone is unique and that one can't put people into folders and categorize them. It just doesn't work that way.
The thing with humans is that we have some kind of need of puting labels on and categorize things. Like if you are born a boy you are supposed to be this way yada yada... and people often try to fit into those categorizations just to not feel left outside. Just so they can fit into the society. When such a thing happens it is the society that is wrong, not the individuals living in it.
Unfortunately people are scared of the things they don't know... things that differs... and so they get afraid and try to defend themself from this new "evil" thing... instead of being curious about it and wanting to learn more like it should be... this is applicable for all kind of narrowmindness... one can find tons of examples of it... not only fear of transexuals and homosexuals... fear of different apperences, diffferent cultures... you name it. And it all limits us and it all destroys us. We have to be curious and accept new things.
Actually among the animals about as many as half of all the species on this earth are hermaphrodites! Like for example snails and starfishes. Some fishes changes their gender as well. So transexual persons are not weird at all. It is just the nature.
I'm interested in this just because I think that being open-minded is so very important and it is important to find facts and evidence before stating things and especially when it cause many innocent people and animals to suffer. Knowleadge is the key and this is why I'm so interested in documentaries. I want to know more about things. I want to understand. There are so many things to learn and it is just stupid to claim onto some old fairytales and things people have said that can't be proved and that causes individuals to suffer. So stupid to fall for group pressure of any form. If you don't like something then don't do it! If you don't agree then don't.
I care about humans and animals and I get so frustrated and angry when people can't understand that most important of all is empathy. Empathy for other people... those people and animals... they are you... by hurting them you hurt yourself...
If i'm to believe in a god I would believe that we are all together the god... because well logically we are, not hard to understand, so please don't hurt yourself.
Believing in some silly books and people intepreting stupid behavior only causing suffering is no good.
I get angry because I wish more people could learn to think.. learn to think outside their little bubble... and see the big picture... I see the big picture all of the time... I see myself as a little part of the big picture... we are not here alone and we should take advantage of that and we should cooperate instead of fighting. We should try to find understanding for each other.
Every day one can read about stupidness... like today when a conductor had thrown out a child of a train just because she didn't have any ticket. How stupid can you be? Since when did it become more important to pay for a ticket then to harm and maybe cause other peoples scars for life and maybe even their death?? How screwed up can you be? Where is the humanity? But this example is nothing compared to the suffering happening all of the time... like the starving children in Africa... if you can save someone then save the person. Use your brains. Try to see the big picture.
This is how I think and well I'm an emotional person but I simply can't see how any material and dead things like money can be more important then a living creature. Many things in this society is just so screwed up... they are still screwed up and we need to get out to people with knowleadge... At least I want to know things... so I watch documentaries and I read books... and each time I feel so very happy because over and over again I see signs of great minds behind those documentaries and books... I see signs of intelligent and good life and I feel happy and understood :) I feel that there is hope for humanity but then the smart people have to inform the less intelligent ones somehow. To tell them not to hurt. Tell them to build it up instead of destroying it. And well it is especially imortant that people with the power do good things but one doesn't need to have power to do this. Having knowleadge can be enough so that's also a good reason to see the documentaries and read the books. I felt really happy that there was one transexual person in India who had got her own TV-show and helped aknowleadging the huge problems the transexual people in India has... but all over the world as well... they are fighting for their acceptance... fighting against peoples narrow-mindedness. Fighting against people who feel bad about themselves and has to give other people harm just to feel godd about themselves. Well an advice to those sad people is to try and think positive instead. Try to smile a bit more and try to accept that we are all different. Be happy and accept each other. Peace and love!
