thinks that online represents real life Even then, trans people "going on and on about their trans identity" online tend to be doing so because it's contextually appropriate to do so. They're discussing their experiences with other queer people (online being a good place for that because it's significantly easier to find other queer people there than in meatspace), discussing current events and politics related to trans issues, or are just blogfaqsing about it for the sake of getting their thoughts down on paper (which is fundamentally no different from blogfaqsing about anything else). If you're seeing trans people talk about being trans a lot, it's because you've put yourself in a context where people are expected to talk about being trans, in which case there's really no room to complain about it. In a way, I'd say it's mostly just selection bias: For many people, they're only aware of the vast majority of trans people of whom they're aware because they see them talking about being trans. They don't experience the silent majority, which skews their perception about how vocal the total population is. Sarcasthma posted... Oh no, what happened to Skard's account?!
