I've met another man who calls himself a "lesbian in a man's body," Despite being a Kinsey 1, I propose a room in Special Hell for these guys...nothing too awful. They can just sit next to the "Hot enough for you?" people and the TGIF people in the "Here's Your Sign" suite. Should I take that to Bureau?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Did you ask him "so when's the operation?"

lesbian in a man's body
I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. What does that mean?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

That he ate a lesbian?
t sheepish ...well, I must admit that I've occasionally called myself a gay man in a woman's body, on the basis of being camp as tits, loving Judy, Marilyn, Gloria Gaynor et al and having more of a Drag Queen sensibility than a girly sensibility. Um. Oh, and loving gay porn. Um. But I don't want to have any operations. And besides, I fancy girls at least as much as boys. So - not so much with the accuracy. But quite good shorthand for "I'm not just a faghag, dahling, I'm a queen!"
OTOH, the "lesbian in a man's body" assertion sounds a bit like men calling themselves feminists. Which isn't something I entirely discredit, but is the kind of claim that tends to make me raise my eyebrows a little.

I don't really know...that's why it's weird so many men find it funny...this particular time I thought an lj-er was a woman and he's not.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think it's reasonable (and hopefully common) for men to be feminists. However, I sincerely doubt that many of these men-lesbians actually feel they're a woman in a man's body, and that's where the whole thing fails for me.
I agree with Daniel -- are you having counselling? Taking hormones? Scheduling the operations? No? Then shut the hell up and stop trying to be cute.
