    An Interview with a friend

    The following is an interview I did with a friend from school who I have
    How Do You Know Me?
    I entered Kuyper and had some classes with Matt

    When and how did we become friends?
    We were involved in the same library study group freshman year of college!!!

    How long have you known I was transgendered?
    uummm about 3 1/2 months I think...

    What were your first impressions on me being transgendered?
    I don't know anyone who is trans so I didn't really know what to think... I was confused and wanted to learn more.

    Have I helped educate you about transgenderism?
    Yes Very much so.

    Are there any stories you would like to share?
    This one time we went to the mall and matt was "becoming" a girl and right out of the blue he pulled 2 boobs out of his purse and began putting them on... I laughed and he said "hey some people are not as blessed"... hahaha IT WAS FUNNY!

    How has it affected our friendship?
    If any thing it has strengthened our friendship because we are talking and hanging out more so that I can learn more.

    What do you understand my transgenderism to mean?
     Honestly, I don't know... I don't think being trans is something that God intended for his people... it is part of the fall and therefore we should refrain from acting on it or acting it out. I may not agree with you being trans but I'm not going to stop being your friend just being your have decided this is the only way to be happy and live your life. God has called us to love everyone and that is what I intend to do.

    How do/can you see it being expressed in my life both now and in the future?
     your name change and dressing like a girl for starters. Um.... other than that... I don't really know...

    Where do you see me headed in my life?
    to the Manager of Lows... JUST KIDDING. I see you heading toward a position in the schools or church educating Christians and non Christians about your passions one of which being God and his overwhelming love.
