Question of the week:
" I was wondering if lying is a big problem in the transgender community. Several trans-folk that I have met seem to tell huge lies about themselves, some for protection, and others perhaps for attention. The lies include false identities and fictional life events. I am not implying that all transfolk lie, but I am wondering if it is a community issue, or I have just met some questionable people within the community. " (from: N., Philadelphia)
