Things that annoy me about trannies, part n*
*where n is an integer one larger than the total number of things that annoy me about trannies that I've blogged about so far.
Trannies that don't know how to spell their own names
This really grinds my gears. Being able to choose a new name that other people will actually use without laughing is one of the perks of being a tranny, one shared with certain music artists, novelists and movie stars. Picking a new name should be a fairly onerous task, one that's handled with a certain amount of research. For example, before picking a new name and proudly registering it on your first tranny forum, you should really learn how to spell it..
I'm amazed at the numbers of trannies I see online with names like "Hanah", "Pennie", "Raychel" and "Stefanie". One recent one that caught my eye was a tranny on Flickr called "Kimburly".
"Kimberly" is a nice name. It means "ruler", apparently. And although Kimberly sounds like "Kimburly" (with certain accents) it has one distinct advantage of not having the word "burly" in it, which you'd think most trannies would try to avoid associating themselves with.
It's an intrinsically blokish sound. Look, I challenge you to say the phrase "Hullo, my name's Kimburly" in your head, without it sounding like Bernard Bresslaw.
...
Look I have a cold. I'm miserable. I'm not this hate-filled in person, honest. This post is the result of the build-up of snot pushing on my brain. It was this or a post about Utah- The Beehive State.

Pity , it was a nice frock too.
For example, comig to a tranny dancefloor near you soon:
K-Lo
K-hole
50K
It's the fault of parents - some who are trying to be trendy and different with a "wacky" spelling, and others who are too damn stupid to bother to look up the name in the Bumper Book of Baby Names or whatever...
K-lo? Sounds like a super-urban metric weight. :)
I gotta get paid... in k-los. Word!
They tend to spell words in rather unusual ways at the best of times?
p.s.
I'm ok with Karol, 'cause its a boys name, and well, err, that's what I is. :o)
Do I have to change my name then?
PS I am sorry Shivawn but Siobhan is so much nicer!
