Hey, thanks for your polite and respectful reply! I do want to let you know that I am not transphobic simply because I disagree with what transexuals believe. Merriam-Webster defines transphobia as "irrational fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against transgender," whereas I clearly stated I even liked Andy as a character, despite seeing her as a female. I'm not trying to consciously offend anyone, but if we were to take that line of reasoning, every mention of transsexuality and homosexuality (I don't hate any homosexuals; actually, I have some gay friends who I don't agree with on the topic, but we still remain friends) would be offensive to me and should be removed, since you guys want this to be a safe place for "all users," which in theory should extend to those who don't agree with those topics.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I would appreciate if my opinion was respected too, even if it seems to be in the minority in the Choices fandom. I do understand that it's a very controversial view, but I believe the old adage to "agree to disagree" is the way many of these discussion will have to end as. Once again, thanks for being kind in your reply!
