try telling this one as an adult..."you were born a boy...thats what you are and you must live your life as such" how do you think this person is going to fare?

How a person is raised really impacts thier lives...racist ppl are NOT ill they are victims of life...and i really feel empathy for them and saddness for thier life.

But babyloc, I was born in a racist family... and I am not racist at all...
