Eh, Heart and her regular commenters are a lost cause. I think Heart only reads comments like yours to find weaknesses in your facts/arguments to exploit. She's referenced my comments before, but never addresses what I actually say; she's just pointed out minor semantic errors (Mary Daly apparently called trans*people Frankenstein's monster, not Frankenstein for instance). And she still bases her opinions and arguments on the same old tired stereotypes. It's better to focus your energy on more friendly (or at least neutral) places. Have you checked out Transadvocate, Brownfemippower, Little Light, or Belledame's blog? And Little Light has an awesome poem: http://takingsteps.blogspot.com/2007/01/seam-of-skin-and-scales.html
