Real talk I don't accept transsexuals as real women or real men. However my basic value of peace and harmony is stronger than my dislike of trans people. If I happen to come across a transwoman of course I'm going to be polite and respectful. I have no reason to be rude or nasty, I'm not going to waste my energy by going out of my way to bother that transwomen. I would leave him/her alone. I would also hire a transperson and/or be their co-worker. What you do with your body is none of my busines
