No she's not and why do some people insist she's not genuine and that she's playing the victim.Is it because some people are uncomfortable with transgendered people and can't accept what we tell them about the medical reasons we are the way we are no matter how often we say it and will uses anything to try and stop a trans person winning.

It's true we are victims we do get threatened and we do get awful abuse in public, far worse than Sophie got who's made out that was a terrible argument when it was hardly anything.

I'd like to see how bad Sophie would think it was and how she would react if she got surrounded by gangs, had things thrown through her window as Lauren has, had the insults of freak,

queer and gay thrown at her, if she'd had a petrol bomb dropped through her letter box or if she was just beaten up or murdered.

All these things have happened to transgendered people.So Lauren is not playing a trans card, she will have had something thrown through her window and will have been threatened and terribly abused by many people as most transgenderd people do have to suffer these things,

so she has good reason to find it difficult to trust anyone who isn't trans.

Even many who make out they are OK with us react uncomfortably around us and talk behind our backs or give each other sly looks.
