Talk:Calpernia Addams

So was she born a girl or a guy? Could someone be more specific than using "she" from the very beginning of the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.199.113.148 (talk)

From the article; "During this time she began her transition to living as a woman full-time". "She" is the proper pronoun to use - Ali-oops^✍ 11:11, 23 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[ quoting above: So was she born a girl or a guy? ] The very question itself is inappropriate and disrespectful of Calpernia Addams. Such an attribution above is based on an incorrect premise. The reason Calpernia Addams got a vaginoplasty is because she was born a woman, but without her vagina though. The pronoun she is correct and appropriate for all time periods referring to Calpernia Addams or anyone else with a similar medical history.

"The reason Calpernia Addams got a vaginoplasty is because she was born a woman, but without her vagina though." If you aren't born with a vagina, you aren't a woman. It's that simple. The masculine pronoun should be used to discuss her life before she got the sex change operation, because at that time she was a man.

To me , she is a woman with the most mesmerising feminity. She is possesed with such captivating beauty that I became her from the first time I saw her picture on the net.

Regardless of which pronoun should be used in the article, it would be useful to explicitly state that she underwent a sex-change operation rather than leaving the reader guessing. Astarf 02:07, 30 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
